We had to move rooms; the TV didn't work in our first room, and the bathroom was a bit dirty. The 2nd room was better, but the thermostat seemed off. It was either too hot or freezing all night. Also the pillows weren't fluffy at all

Location is great; staff super friendly My room was dark; smells like roach spray bigtime; carpet was wet(!); and the toilet was tricky to flush; had to ask for a non slip mat for shower bc it was indeed very slippers. This should be included as a safety precaution automatically.

The location was perfect for walking to all our destinations. Easy check-in and easy-check out. Breakfast at the hotel was good, paid on our room. The bathroom paper holder was held on by a sharp screw, should've been replaced. The blinds were off the track and wouldn't go up or down, I fixed it myself. We checked in on a Tuesday and expected housekeeping on Thursday to replace towels etc. At 3pm they still had no shown up. I went to front desk and asked for towels and put our towels & trash outside our door. Half hour later a gentleman knocked on door and handed me towels. An hour and a half later housekeeping knocked and we told them the gentleman already dropped off towels (so our room was never actually seen by housekeeping) When we checked out we were not asked how our stay was or any questions, just given a receipt.

Did not have breakfast We paid 50.00 for valet parking under the assumption that our vehicle would be parked in covered parking. When we got our car out of valet the entire car was covered in a sticky residue. I reached out to the manager to explain the situation and I never received a response.

Valet parking - needs to be equipped with charger our battery was dead we had to walk to our car 3 blocks away and get it jump started ourselves

Everything was clean and the staff was friendly. Valet parking was nice and we were so close to the riverwalk we could walk everywhere but was shocked on how much it was a night. I guess it could be cheaper than other parking garages. Overall it was a great stay.

My room was dirty. Air-conditioning was very loud fingerprints all over the door, bathroom door, refrigerator door and drawers. The blind did not work so I couldn’t lower it down to block the sun in the morning. Staff was very friendly. The pool was too small now I understand why they only took a small picture of the pool. Must’ve been an old picture because sunshade was broken and rusted out. Chairs were old no remote for the outside TV.

Itnis a nice hotel. Just dont try to park a car. The parking was around $47 per night if you use their valet. Good luck finding parking if you dont. I wish that they had spelled it out more clearly. I might have stayed somewhere else. We were on the Houston side and there was loud music at night.

I never received a message from valet regarding my pick up for my car, I asked about it and they said they would send one, no message. Went to get my car the next morning and they asked for my # off of my message that I never got. The shade in our room was broken so we had to try and sleep with the bright light shining in the window. Reported to the front desk and she really didn't care.

We paid for valet and when my vehicle was brought back to me it smelled like marijuana. The entire vehicle. I did inform the lady at the front desk and she stated she would issue a refund for valet but did not apologize and said your refund will take care of that. I find that very unprofessional and disrespectful for someone to be smoking inside someone else vehicle.

The location is perfect if you are in town to visit the Riverwalk and the Alamo. Both are within a few minutes walk.

The listing on Expedia shows the pool has a bar and breakfast is included, to which neither is true, so head's up. Everything else was great, though, and a great location downtown.

At check in, we were only told about the hotel’s location near the Alamo and River Walk. We were not given the hotel information sheet or told about any of the facilities. We only discovered on our final morning that there was a rooftop pool, which was extremely frustrating as we would have used it throughout our stay - had we known!!!!! Breakfast was also handled very poorly. We had breakfast included in our booking, but the staff directed us to order from the menu or pay $20 per person and then attempted to charge us for the items on the menu!!! Nobody asked for our room number or checked whether breakfast was included before taking the order. This gave us the impression that guests may routinely be charged without their booking details being properly checked, potentially resulting in additional charges and tips that should not apply. BE AWARE OF THIS. Overall, the room and facilities were good, but guests cannot make use of the facilities that they are not told about. Better communication at check-in and a more transparent breakfast process would have made a significant difference to our stay. This resulted in us having a bad post-feeling about this stay overall.

Location was excellent, parking however was not included, we got charged for parking. We had to asked for towels more than once before it was delivered to us. Breakfast was delicious although it was not continental breakfast.

Rooms were not ready on time. There were bugs in one of the rooms that I reserved.
- 4/5
The only thing that I recommend for the hotel is to add some more lighting or lamps to the room we were in which was 511, because it was kind of dark in there when we wanted to use the desk area. Other than that we thoroughly enjoyed our stay! Thank You!

It was extremely close to the venue we were attending. There were restaurants, Voodoo donut shop, pizza and ice cream all within a block or two. What I don't like is the parking. No one should have to pay $50+ to parking for 1 night. That is extremely ridiculous. SA Texas is not New York. Coming from the Ground floor, there's no signs telling you where the lobby is. Very confusing. Why do you have to ask for shower mat? The shower floor was dirty. The color on the television was blue.

Good hotel for individuals looking to be close to the San Antonio night life and river walk. Not the best hotel for families with little ones looking to get an early night sleep. Parking not available on hotel ground, only Valet parking available or paid parking lots. Staff personnel were top notch.

I was there for 4 nights and my room was only visited by house cleaning once. And when they did, they didn’t clean just added towels that’s it.
- 3/5
Front desk was notified (9 pm when we got to room)that our TV wasn't working or either we were doing something wrong. Front desk acted inconvenienced(attitude is important) and said maintenance would check it the next morning (when we left). They did offer free breakfast which we turned down. Front desk also said we could come watch TV in the lobby. Management apologized the next morning and gave us points. Otherwise, I would have rate 1 or 2. If these 2 things (TV not working, bad employee at Front desk) had not happened, I would have rated 4+, despite parking.
- 3/5
The only reason I didn’t give a 5 star was because the elevators were out limited to only one working the majority of the time. Also, we had to request clean towels multiple times and when asked. They said they ran out. My card was also charged twice at check in and again for using valet for 5 days when in fact we only used them once. I reccomend you be sure to ask for a receipt to be sure you don’t get charged for things you didn’t use. Other than that… it was great.
- 4/5
We did have to ask for bath towels and a luggage rack. Our room was not serviced on our only day there and we had to ask for wash clothes, water and more coffee. The desk staff were great and the requests were filled quickly, but these were things we shouldn’t have had to adk for.

The parking was excellent and safe. The car was waiting for me and I didn't have to wait when I got downstairs. The staff was more than helpful and friendly.

Not a very good experience. The conveyance of being downtown was great but the hotel was below expectation. Lack of cleanliness, missing accessories (iron, coffee maker, towels etc..). Expressed my frustration to an employee and was very dismissive.

The hotel did not provide water for the in-room coffee maker. Which as it turns out was broken anyway. We were informed at check in that the room would only be serviced every other day, which was fine, but it was never serviced. The shower soap dispenser was empty (good thing I brought bar soap). We asked for wash cloths and they never arrived; we were told 'they were doing laundry'. The hotel was close to Riverwalk, which was convenient, just be aware there is a heavy homeless population in this area. It is unsettling if you are not used to it, and we were not. The Valet service was pretty good, considering I think they are understaffed. The Valet people were personable, the server in the dining room was good. Order off the menu and not the buffet. The buffet is OK if in a hurry and you eat a lot, but for $20.00 it was a better option for us to order off the menu. I don't think we would stay there again.

Valet Richard was a jerk. There was on maintenance guy wish I got his name but he was on top of his game. Not a bad location, reasonably priced, maybe it was an off day but yea it wasn’t “great”
