A reasonable stay in a convenient location

This was a reasonably comfortable stay with the major bonus the close location to the train station (arrived in, and left San Antonio by train). The room was spacious. Room and bathroom were nice and clean. A comfortable king bed, nice and quiet and a good sleep. Kitchenette with microwave, sink, fridge, coffee. There was a guest laundry for $2.50 - change and detergent available at reception (detergent in shop). Breakfast included, but only average. Another bonus is the friendly and helpful staff. Convenient powerpoints in a hotel for a change. Convenience shop in reception. 10 min walk to Riverwalk and Alamo. No room safe. Would stay again.

At least 1 or more piece of each set of bedding was visibly dirty. We asked to replace a blanket and the hotel staff gave us a bed pad instead. The room didn't smell very good either. Not confident that the cleaning staff is doing even the bare minimum. In order to get to the river walk, you have to walk and risk being blocked by a stopped train (happened to us) with no easy way to go around without a very long walk to avoid it and the area has a lot of homeless people so not a safe idea to venture through side streets. The parking was awful as there isn't very much room and some parking spaces barely fit small cars so our SUV was nearly on the line on both sides. If it was free, I wouldn't stay here again.

Nice hotel

Close to downtown without being in the midst of the hustle and bustle. Hotel was clean, quiet and comfortable. Breakfast was good. Outdoor pool is not heated and kind of small, but was never busy. Staff was friendly and helpful. We enjoyed our stay.

Perfect location- minutes away from everything somehow. Yummy continental breakfast with many options. Free, on-site parking was well lit; I felt comfortable (as a solo female) walking across at night. The room was spacious and clean. Would definitely stay in again!

The one condition I did not feel comfortable with is that on Saturday, March 1 there was so much noise we could not sleep. 11am . I called the front desk and I was told there was renovations going on on the floor above our room. The charge for that room should have been discounted or we given the option to have another room at the onset of reservation.

Disappointed in San Antonio

The hotel is located in a sketchy part of town. I have no idea what view was used for the outside pictures. They were doing construction and we had loud banging on Friday afternoon and our shower didn’t work which made it very hard to get ready for an event that night. The banging and construction started at 657 in the morning on Saturday. It was awful. The one bed seemed like it had a hole in the middle of the mattress. When we checked out and I was asked about my stay, I gave the feedback above. The lady at the check out said, “Ok.” And that was it. (The breakfast was good!)
Out our window of the hotel.
