The elevator stopped working when we were leaving. My handicapped sister inlaw had to struggle going down 4 flight of stairs. We had to struggle with all of our luggage. Also, the hotel told us they were going to hold $50 for accidentals. $150 were held. They could not tell me why. They could not fix it. now I have to wait 3 to 4 days to see if I will be getting those funds back.

It was pretty clean the beds were comfortable, but there was no microwave in the room had to go to the lobby to heat up leftovers for my kids and being on the top floor so that was a inconvenience, breakfast was not good just boiled eggs, muffins, cold cereal and bagels was very upset about that, the night manager was very rude to me overcharged me for a cup of noodles that was priced and decided to overcharged me at his expense gave me attitude about it,the other staff were very nice.

Great stay, beds were comfortable, loved that hygiene products were available including a hair dryer, surprised that upon turning on the tv- it was personalized to my name- that felt very welcoming- staff was very friendly and attentive. Would have loved to have a full breakfast rather than just cereal and bagels but it worked overall. Would definitely stay here again

The staff was professional and courteous. Our room was clean. The hotel location was close from Lackland AFB and close to freeways. Perhaps a bit more or maintenance in the building is needed, but overall it was a great experience! (I would definitely stay there if visiting San Antonio)

Our truck, however, was broken into along with 3 other trucks. The hotel was not at fault for this. Apparently, this happens frequently near this area. Please take all your belongings inside with you. Do not leave anything of value in the vehicle.

Cars get broken into all the time
- 1/5
During our stay, 15 cars were broken into during the night. The staff never acknowledged us even though we went in and out multiple times a day. The breakfast provided was not anything cooked, only dropped off from packages and the fruit was moldy and bad. They put it out multiple days in a row despite that fact. The room had mold in the shower and broken tiles. I was surprised this was a Hilton hotel.

Location to SeaWorld. In door pool. Breakfast selection. We killed several roaches in our room. Carpet was dirty.

staff does not care about their customers, my car was vandalized at hotel parking lot and they didn't bother to notify us or call police. Never came out to see if we were ok or there was something we needed. Will not be staying at SPARKS Hilton Seaworld

Fortunately, the lack of air conditioning appeared to be limited to the lobby, as our room on the third floor was comfortable. However, there was only one elevator serving the entire building, which could become a major inconvenience during busier times. Luckily, we did not encounter significant crowds while using it. We also used the indoor pool, and while the pool itself was fine, the condition of the facility was concerning. There was visible peeling paint and ceiling material, likely due to the constant humidity associated with an indoor pool. After leaving the pool area, we noticed flying cockroaches, as well as cobwebs and spiders along the walls and ceilings. Once we returned to our room, we discovered that the hair conditioner provided had run out. The following day, we requested fresh towels, and we were told that housekeeping is provided every other day. To their credit, the staff did provide us with fresh towels and replacement conditioner after we requested them. Unfortunately, the most concerning incident occurred on the morning of checkout. We witnessed what appeared to be multi

Do Not Stay Here staff is aware that vehicles get broken into at night and there is no security. During our stay there were at least 7 cars windows broken. When you go into the lobby to report it to the front desk they just point at a sign that says “cars are being broken into” and say “call the police”. Do not stay here unless you want to drive back home with broken car windows.

Good night stay some wear and tear in the room ( wall above shower wallpaper coming up)

Air conditioning was horrible. The temperature didn’t get below 73 and management said it was because of the high temperature outside. Hardly any hot water and it was hot in the lobby and hallways.

They air fresheners at the main entrance, trash bags in the trash cans, keep the elevator working regularly, since it's the only one, the building has. The staffs were great, but the breakfast was terrible, egs were had to pee, and were very cold.

There was mold on the ceiling. The card reader did not work at the additional entrance doors. The place smelled of mold. The AC did not work in one of the rooms. The elevator malfunctioned multiple times over my family’s two day stay. The selection for breakfast was terrible. Housekeeping only comes every other day. AC did not work in hallways or the stairwells that we had to take because of the elevator not working.

There was no microwave in the room, which is weird and the room that I stayed I (#315) had a metal piece on the door where you had to push it and slam it shut because I think someone had to break in it before there was a crack on the door

The AC would go back up on its own and had a slight midlewy scent in the room but wasn’t the worst. The laundry is open 8a-8p but the staff were super helpful in letting people in after hours to finish up or even start their laundry if need be. Any issues we had, the front desk was amazing at sorting it out and remembering when we would come back through. My biggest complaint would be house keeping. We had specifically asked that trash be picked up even if nothing else was done. I guess nap time for 2 toddlers coincided with the house keepers rounds on our floor. In most places I’ve stayed, they’ve made an effort to come back by at a later time ti better accommodate the guest. We ended up asking the front desk for trash bags to help with the diaper situation as no one came to our room in the 3 nights we were there.

At check in the staff was very nice. The room was clean but hot (there was no air conditioning). The whole floor seemed to have air conditioning issues that was not fixed in the 4 days we stayed. The front desk staff did let us borrow a fan which just blew hot hair around. The room bounced between 77 & 81. There is no microwave in the room or coffee maker or even ice bucket and cups. Breakfast is bagels, muffins, hard boiled eggs, oranges & apples, cereal or yogurt. To turn the shower off it felt like I was breaking the knob. Plus, in the middle of my shower I had to clean out the tub drain because it was not draining. The hair I cleaned out was not from my family. Elevator is very slow and they only have one elevator.

Room had cracked paint and black mold in bathroom. Staff was friendly. No lotion or shower cap. Room was not cleaned between days. Was more like an old Holiday Inn than a Hilton. Breakfast was very minimal. Will not stay there again.

There was literally nothing "wrong" with this hotel. I think people Are so dramatic or demanding luxury from a 2 star hotel which is ridiculous. I asked about the cockroaches, they don't have any. I asked if the faucet in the bathroom leaks, before accepting, they said no. So. All in all there was mildew in the oat milk and the breakfast person on our first morning didn't feel like replacing anything unless asked. It was silly. Maybe they are instructed to do so by management to save money. They just need to care more about healthy and sanitary maintenance. I broke a glass container outside in the driveway and they swept it but had no attention to detail to make sure to get all the glass so that's how I know people also wouldn't care enough to use a pipe cleaner on the milk spouts every day and sanitize the containers everyday. It's horrible that they use boiled eggs with the shell on. It's impossible to peel and rinse the shell off the egg. Gross. Just get the pre peeled kind like everyone else or steam them in an egg shaped steamer which you also can't clean properly-so nevermind. Yes the juices are watered down. Not delicious. The staff did NOT come to clean our room every other day as promised we had 3 days worth of trash and crumbs all over and the toddler spilled blueberries on the bed. Otherwise it was just as nice as everyplace else I've ever been, including Vista Walker Hill in Seoul South Korea. Maybe even better because Spark has free breakfast. <3

A well run hotel with helpful staff.

Restroom toliet needs to be reculked, the toilet goes side to side. Water pressure is not good and there is water damage in the restroom. Shower head needs to be replaced has a little of the water debris that white hard scale. Breakfast was a disaster. Seems only refilled once not the best at all. Room 307 definitely needs to be redone,flipped and deep cleaned. Used to be a house keeper for a hotel and we flipped rooms for deep cleans every 2 weeks because everyday maintenance.my husband was not impressed at all and we will not be staying here again. Once you find a good hotel just stick with it. Home2suite or best western are my preferred. You pay for what you get for sure.

The hotel is very clean , the staff were great! The disappointing part was the breakfast. It was very minimal compared to other hotels we’ve stayed in. Only had beagels, bread, boiled eggs, apples oranges and yoghurt. For the price of the hotel I expected more variety in the continental bf menu.

Next since we were staying 4 days they said we would receive room service every 2 days so on the second day we left our room and went out for a few hrs..Upon return around 5pm our room was still dirty. I called down and had to ask for service. Horrible hotel esp w/kids!

Additionally, our room was missing basic amenities, including bathroom soap and body lotion. The service in the breakfast area was also concerning, the staff member in charge was rude to both children and other guests. We checked in late, and when we raised our concerns, the only option offered to us was to cancel our reservation, rather than assisting with relocation to another hotel. Furthermore, communication at the front desk was difficult, as staff demonstrated limited English proficiency and poor customer service skills. The ac unit was really loud as well Overall, the experience did not meet our expectations.

The Pool was cold and dirty, the roof was caving in, in the pool room. They had the back door proped open with a 5 gallon pain bucket so anyone could walk in. The ac in our room never fully cooled it down. I'm extremely disappointed in our stay. I had higher expectations for a hotel that carried such a prestigious name.

Shower was in a horrible conditions. Mold and sign of leaks in ceiling. Loose faucets, drain was completely loose and might have been leaking to lower level. Smelled like cigarette when ac was running. Also the main thing if you don’t want your vehicle tampered with or stuff stolen. DON’T STAY HERE. During my stay my latch was messed with and three truck were broken into. Broken glass everywhere.

I stayed here with my family at the end of March and it was a nightmare. We ended up checking out after one night even though we booked the hotel for 3 days. The elevator didnt work, the pool heater didnt work, the a/c didnt work and the hot water didnt work. The "breakfast bar" is just bagels and cereal. I had to argue back and forth with the property manager and expedia for a refund for DAYS. The property manager lied and said I never expressed my concerns, which couldnt be further from the truth. Pick any other hotel. Seriously.

We booked a two-night stay. We noticed cockroaches in the bathroom the morning of the second day. When we returned that evening there were a few big roaches and many baby roaches. While I was talking to the front desk worker (who didn't appear surprised by the news of the infestation) my wife called and said they were in my clothes. I asked for another room...if it wasn't already after 10pm at the time, I would have packed up and left. The room the front desk worker took me to had cockroaches in the bathroom again....worst hotel experience ever.
