The hotel is in a convenient location close to the River Walk, making it perfect for a city getaway. The rooms, however, had cleanliness issues with gnats, and the security response was not satisfactory.

My stay at the hotel was a mixed experience. The location was excellent, just a block off the Riverwalk, making it convenient for exploring downtown San Antonio. However, the room with two queen beds was disappointing due to stained bedding and lack of hot water, but the cold temperature was actually refreshing. The dining options were hit or miss, with some extraordinary offerings but also some subpar quality with the use of polystyrene plates and cups.

The hotel had clean and comfortable rooms, with great service from the friendly staff. The location was convenient, especially for exploring the River Walk area. The dining experience offered delicious options but had some limitations. Overall, a satisfying stay with good value for money.

Rooms

Our room was clean and comfortable, perfect for four women. Despite being right off the street, we had a cozy stay. The cold temperature for two days was a minor hiccup, but the two queen beds made it spacious.
