    This hotel was extremely LOUD… you can hear EVERYTHING FROM OUTSIDE AND IN THE HALLWAY. That was our biggest complaint. The hotel itself is decent but if you want to sleep at night in peace please find somewhere else! The valet was extremely slow as well.

    The staff and cleanliness of the hotel was really nice! My only gripe with our stay was about parking. They have NO parking it is Valet ONLY. It was probably mentioned somewhere, but honestly, it wasn't clear enough for me to catch ahead of time. Me personally? I don't want have to pay for parking after already paying for the room itself. Other than that it was a great stay and if there was parking included we would go again.

    Our biggest complaint is the parking company associated with the hotel. It was stated that it was $35 for the evening. With taxes and fees and an additional $10, it was over $50. Just something to keep in mind when booking here

    Overall I really enjoyed staying here, the hotel and room were very clean and there were great breakfast options in the morning. However, bed and pillows were terrible. The bed felt like there was no padding or support left and you were sleeping on springs. The pillows were so flat I had to stack 2-3 to get something to sleep on. Together it made for some rough nights sleeping.

    The rooms were pretty small but clean. Location was great for what we needed. Saved a lot of money by parking on the street. The website claimed 24 hour coffee. However evetytime my husband went for coffee it was either cold or out. He had to ask for it at least 6 times during our 2 night stay. Breakfast was OK.

    There is cheap parking out front if you can get it and they let me know before i paid for valet, i only went for a concert so it was helpful to sabe the money. The breakfast was not bad and staff was super sweet. The room was very clean and had a nice big window. It was a great experience all in all considering we didn’t require a long stay but I’m sure a longer stay would have been just as accommodating. Can’t go wrong staying here.

    The walls are extremely thin. You can hear everything. The maids start vacuuming early all around you when you are trying to sleep. You can hear stomping all the way down the hall from the floors above. You can tell they took an existing building, threw up some thin Sheetrock, and gave it a facelift. There is mandatory valet parking because there is no parking unless you want to park under the overpass with the junkies that hang out there.

    There is absolutely zero parking at this building, zero, I was told valet for parking was 40 dollars and was charged 50 dollars, homeless population on the street around and in the hotel entrance was horrible, very uncomfortable, I got cursed at by a homeless lady asking for me to go inside and make her a cup of coffee while waiting for the valet to bring my truck. Building is brand new but the location and the atmosphere absolutely horrible! Could not even rest because of inside foot traffic and the concern of where my truck was taken, horrible location!

    On a positive note, Mercedes, the front desk manager, was absolutely amazing. She went completely out of her way to make me feel comfortable and took the time to genuinely listen to my complaints about the valet situation. While her excellent customer service was greatly appreciated, the hotel really needs to address the issues with PMC.

    What I didn’t like about is there’s no self parking. You either have to look for a parking lot in other places or used there VIP parking which costs you $ 40.00 a night. Breakfast is ok, there’s not much selection. No fresh fruits to put on the yogurt. There was no orange juice. The strawberry kiwi juice is water down. The hot coffee and decaf are good. I didn’t realize the room that I chose is small. The picture that I saw is different. I should pay more attention.The bedroom floor is wooden, I wished they have a placement mats or rugs by the bed for your feet to step on before you lie down on bed.

    I'll start by saying, I'm not a big review person, so for me to do this is very telling. My 1 star rating consists of slow returns from valet (the parking lot is a couple blocks away from the hotel), lack of attention from the front desk staff (most of the ladies were in their phones), room service (I asked for turnover and was told the staff was busy) towels were limited and there was no soap in the dispenser and the iron and ironing board was broken, maintenance (one of the elevators malfunctioned while I was in it. It wouldn't open on my and another family's floor when it was supposed to and it swayed left to right as if it was barely secured in the shaft. I lost my footing, fell and hit my head. In the hallway of the 4th floor, you can feel the boards through the carpet.) I'm highly disappointed and won't book here ever again.

    I stayed here a few years ago when it just opened, and I must say this visit was not as pleasant. Wallpaper was peeling in the hall and the rooms. The toilet paper holder came out of the cabinet, and the carpet and floor in the hall were in shambles. The elevator was so scary, we opted to take the stairs. Sometimes it would open, and sometimes it wouldn't, and you had to go to the next floor.

    There are a lot of hotels in the downtown San Antonio area. Right next to the river walk and Alamo, both a 5 minute walk. For a smaller hotel (only 4 floors) it actually has a ton of amentities. Pool, laundry, gym, breakfast included. Room had everything I needed. Only thing missing that usually in hotel rooms was a safe. You can tell it’s a newer hotel. Nice lobby as well. Staff was there 24/7 and incredibly friendly and helpful

    We thought this would be a safer area but nothings truly walkable, its a few blocks to get to anything. Also this is more about the crowd than the hotel but twice during our stay, 2 different people were over served and puking in the lobby and in front of the building. Also parking isn't attached to the building, its 2 blocks away so you have to valet and it takes about 15 minutes to get your car every time. We're not coming back
