Reviews
The hotel staff is consistently praised for their friendliness and helpfulness. However, there are recurring issues with the elevators, and some guests have reported cleanliness and maintenance problems in the rooms. The location is generally seen as convenient, particularly for those traveling through the airport.

The room was clean, but we noticed that the tub was leaking water. We reported it to the front desk, and the front desk offered us another room which we eventually declined because it had a funky smell, so we stayed in the original room assigned. The front desk told us that the leak was normal (according to maintenance), which I thought was odd, given that this leak can result in thousands of gallons of water wasted, especially during a drought in Texas.

Elevators were broken when we got there. We had to use the service elevator to get to our room. The hotel advertised a breakfast buffet but it was not a buffet. It was one item of a menu
- 4/5
Hotel was pretty nice, but the area left some to be desired. A few things in the room could stand to be updated, but not bad at all. When we arrived, there were multiple people warning us of the vehicle break-ins in the area being pretty common. Staff was great, and check-in was easy. Very quick drive to the airport.

Bed, sheets and towels excellent quality, good shower as well. Parking is easy and seems safe. Carpet in room smells badly and has bad appearance, they should replace by solid cover. Reception is unstaffed, slow for checking in.

Room was clean, staff was super friendly and helpful, bathrooms could use some updates. Ice machine on my floor wasnt working, and a few other floors and the room a/c was hit or miss. I only stayed one night. No true complaints, just didnt meet my personal preferences.

If you're looking for a clean room and safe atmosphere, this is it. As a mom who traveled alone with two Littles, I'm always worried about the surrounding areas. This property was at a good price point and the rooms were nice. At night, security drives around the property. The young man who was security was not needing around. I was hesitant at first, but it was great. My brother lives on this side of town but I normally book farther away. This time I didn't want to wait in traffic so I booked here not even a mile away. Some of the staff, could be a little more welcoming. You had to pay additional for breakfast which I skipped since other high end hotels include it normally on my status and I wasnt going toto pay 30 for me and my littles. The Room was very clean and I never saw the pool or hot tub buti also never searched for them

The staff were professional and friendly. A shout out the drivers Steve $ Tes they were courteous and exhibited safety throughout my service. Marlon the desk clerk was patience , calm, and helpful.

Good location The room had a nasty smell to it, the shower head does not allow enough pressure to wash well, the toilet paper holder does not hold the paper, the air conditioner did not work well enough to cool the room, no hooks anywhere to hang a towel. Since the breakfast is not complimentary, if you accidentally book to include breakfast & find out you will be leaving each morning before breakfast opens, you cannot get that price taken off the bill. I ended up getting charged more than my booking price & never received a statement showing why. I was also not supposed to be charged until I checked out & they charged me the minute I checked in. It just wasn’t very impressive at all.

The hotel and room looked liked it should have been really nice until you look too close. There was a lot of cleaning that was needed and a lot of the room looked worn and poorly kept. The first night I arrived late and could not get the room to cool down. I was already unpacked and in bed otherwise I would have requested a different room. The second night there was no hot water and almost no water pressure. I ran the water for about 10-15 minutes thinking maybe it would warm up but it didn't. This night the air conditioner would not turn off so it was freezing. So imagine this discomfort of being in a freezing room after getting rained on and trying to take a shower to discover no hot water. I called the front desk and they said that due to the cold weather the boiler could not keep up...this is San Antonio and it was 78 degrees outside. They said she to booking through Expedia they could only offer me dinner and a drink but I was checking out the next morning so that did nothing for me. I would recommend a different skipping this hotel if you are expecting a little nicer stay.

The room was pleasant, and the staff was friendly. However, the only complaint I had was about the air conditioning. It wasn’t working properly, resulting in poor airflow and a hot room. I called the front desk and asked for a fan, but unfortunately, they didn’t have any available.

The TV in my room was stuck on the guide. It was the only thing on every channel. The breakfast was not fresh or warm when I took it to my room to microwave it and the door on the microwave wouldn’t open when the food was done. I waited 20 minutes and had to call downstairs a second time to have someone come up. I was told they were busy but this was at 8AM on a Saturday morning and I’d already been downstairs…they were not busy. I paid extra for a higher floor with a patio - the door to the patio is locked but it’s still a door so it rattles in the wind. I was refunded for the breakfast.

Firstly, I waited until 3:40 pm to check in, when the check-in time for check-in is 3:00 pm, Second, two hours in the room, and half of the carpet was soaked wet from the A/C unit. I called the front desk, and the first answer from this guy was, "How wet??? really? He told me, "Let me see what I can do." 30 min later, I was still waiting. I walked to the front desk, and this guy did didnt even check if they had another room for me; he told me: I didn't have anyone to send to your room. I looked around, and two employees were there, talking and joking in front of me; it was clear to me that the customer isn't that important to this hotel chain. Of course, this is gonna be the last time I stay with them. I'm very disappointed with the Hotel and they personall.

I was in town for a funeral. I asked Miguel to check in early so that I could get dressed to go to the funeral. They would not allow me to check in early, which is fine but they also would not allow me to change in a bathroom. I thought that was unfair. I came back to check in and the next person was rude and not helpful when I asked some follow up questions. I got into my room and it had hair on the bathroom floor and in the sink. The family in the room right next to mine was so loud. The kids screamed nonstop and blasted their cartoon shows. I was so stressed and exhausted from attending the funeral I just stayed and delt with rude staff, unclean bathroom, loud neighbors OH and the ice machine did not work (9th floor). It was bone dry so it hasn't worked in some time. Why bother giving us ice buckets if the ice machine didn't work? I would have asked about it with the front desk but I couldn't handle another unkind staff member in my fragile state. I checked out and will not be back, ever.

First of all the water temperature took a long time to warm up and even when it was warm it was still a little too cold for my liking. The room we initially were put in had a broken television. maintenance was call but seem to known a little to nothing about tv’s on top of that the main elevator was unresponsive at times with waits over 10+ minutes had to use the staff elevator once. The air conditioning in the second room seem to be semi inoperable due to the room uncomfortable temperature . But on the bright side the staff were helpful and the bed was very comfortable

The hotel is very old but renovations have been made to make it appear up-to-date. The A/C was broken downstairs but our room was also hot. Reported it to staff and someone was going to notify the person or persons in charge but I never heard anything back either. The television stations were limited however, the channels never matched the networks. It was a mess. I wouldn’t recommend it.

I was only at the hotel overnight after flying my granddaughter to her dad. The hotel was clean but definitely needs updating. Only 1 elevator worked during the July 4th weekend. The area outside of the elevators on the 7th floor is heavily stained on carpet. The ice machine made me question using the ice. And the AC in my room hummed all night but I was so exhausted I dealt with it. A number of chips on my front door and closet door. Rust in the shower. Bed , covers and pillows were very comfortable and the TV worked well. The airport shuttle was clean and the driver was very nice. Check-in was quick and convenient.

I booked the reservation based on the picture of the pool area. Unfortunately it was nothing like the picture. Actual size was a lot smaller. Also, yellow caution tape sectioned off the hot tub. Before going to sleep I saw a large beetle crawling under the table. I was hoping my girlfriend wouldn’t notice. However once she woke up in the morning she found ants in the bathroom and another beetle. We requested a 12 o’clock check out which they approved. Only thing is they forgot to notify housekeeping who began asking us to leave before then. I stay in a lot of hotels. Will never be going back to this one. I never leave reviews but I found it necessary to do so this time.

The cleanliness of the hotel was great and the staff was very friendly and helpful.

Additionally, the air conditioning was not working properly in either the hallway or the room, making the stay uncomfortable. The hot tub was also out of order for my entire stay, which was one of the amenities I was looking forward to using. To add to the disappointment, breakfast was not included. I was hoping for a cleaner and more comfortable experience, especially after bringing these concerns to staff’s attention. Unfortunately, the issues were never resolved during my stay.

Hotel is an older property and the rooms and common areas reflect the age. Property/rooms need a remodel. I did like the location and found it easily.

It took until day 2, in order for our room to get changed and even then, the a/c still was an issue. Was told by management I couldn’t get a discount bc I booked ahead?
