Positive: AC kept room cool, room was clean. Gate across driveway at night to deter car thieves and trespassers.
Negative: Upon exiting road, motel looks partly abandoned. Between outdoor weights and covered up workout machines straight from a prison yard movie scene on one side flanked by a small engine repair/outdoor maintenance facility where Room #1 would of been, along with a slow moving swimming pool resurfacing project, hard to recommend this establishment. However, if you are familiar with this vicinity of Texas "beach vibe", not really out of place. OR if you are really into birding, several folks gathering in parking lot so excited about seeing birds with your guide they overlooked all the issues right in front of them.
Summary: Room is adequate, facilities need some work

Positive: The Gulfway is the perfect place to stay for birding on High Island. All of the Audubon sanctuaries are in close proximity, and the Anahuac NWR Rookery is a quick drive away. My room was clean, and included a microwave and mini fridge. The a/c worked well and both the bed and bedding made for a restful sleep. (the linens were so much better than I expected, very nice)I felt safe and had no concerns. The owners were welcoming, informative, and friendly.
Negative: There wasn't anything I didn't like.
Summary: Gulfway is a Great Stay
