Facilities

Heated indoor pool is appreciated, though one guest found it uninviting. Parking is paid and QR/app-managed with confusing rules, potholes, and crowding, and there were elevator outages or long waits.

It was a great experience! Staff were nice, I just don’t like that we have to pay $6 a night to park there. It should be included if we are staying there and not flying out.

PAY PARKING. Front desk staff (3) were nice but I received different stories about possible fees including not knowing whether I was charged every time I entered and exited. Parking company is same that operates several lots at SAT airport so I already had the APP on my phone but even the text messages regarding parking at these 2 hotel motels was mysterious and not concise about what I was paying...daily or on every exit?

The breakfast was adequate as you would expect, but the waitstaff, Judy, was amazingly friendly and helpful. She was the best part od the experience. The street and parking lot had potholes and seemed hazardous to many vehicles. The pricing for parking was high and unnecessary for the condition of the lot. The air conditioning in the room would not adjust and kept running even when it was turned off which is not bad for Texas heat, but it still was not functional. The shower head was broken and sprayed in all directions despite any attempt to adjust the sprayer settings. The tiel in the bathroom floor was loose and the grout was breaking and sitting on the tile. Overall, not a pleasant stay for the price paid. My wife and I were disappointed that we boiked for 2 nights and had to stay both but didn't want to lose the money we already paid. We love San Antonio and usually stay at other brands of hotels. We will definitely avoid this one and return to our normal.

I was shocked at the lower quality of this hotel for the following reasons: 1. Only one elevator for five floors PLUS elevators had to be shared with hotel cleaning staff, which made for some long wait times. 2. The common areas could have been much cleaner. 3. The hotel is in desperate need of an update. Everything seemed old and worn.

This is our usual hotel we stay in when in town. Other than having a toilet overflow, the room was good. I will say that the staff needs to do a better job telling customers that there is a charge to park. There are signs in the parking lot, but there needs to be a sign visible during check-in. The girl that checked us in did not mention it at all. We only found out later after checking in. And it has to be done by scanning a QR code. Not a problem for me, but for those who are not tech savvy, they might have to ask for help. And if you dont do it exactly right, you will get charged every time you come in the gate, instead of only being charged once per day. The manager, Ashley, was great in helping me out with this issue.

The elevator wasnt working, and we were staying on the 4th floor so that made it kind of stressing, I did ask if they were getting fixed soon and they said they didnt know when, they did offer to help with the stuff we had, but we still had more stuff to bring down from what they helped with which was only a stroller I was also charged a little more than what my reservation showed and from what they told my on the front desk when i checked in

We were visiting the San Antonio are for the first time. Upon arriving to the hotel we waited awhile until we were able to check in because there was no staff available to do so. Once we were checked in we went up to our room. The room had a musty smell to it which was terrible but when we asked for a new room we were accommodated but it was not much better. It was not the best accommodations but we could not cancel once we booked because it would not allow us too. We will be back to visit San Antonio but will not be staying here again.

Facilities in the rooms are very neglected, especially the bathrooms. The toilet paper holder is heavily damaged and rusty, posing a risk of cutting yourself on the rusted metal. The bathtub appears neglected, and the floor is damaged. Room cleanliness is average, and during my two-night stay, the room was never cleaned. I had to go down to the front desk to request a roll of toilet paper and water.

The hotel, itself, is a challeging location to get to. I lived in San Antonio for 12 years and I still was not sure if I was in the right place. I went to check in (I was early) - zero staff was there to help. I do have a service dog and they were great about him. He has paperwork but they never asked to see it. I do appreciate that but the hotel is out of date.

First of all the front desk young lady and gentleman were very nice and accommodating. But especially Maria who worked the breakfast was awesome. She went out of her way to please the guest that were there and was Very friendly and nice!! About the hotel…the location was perfect for us and what we wanted to do but the hotel is on the older side and definitely needs attention. The rooms are small and the rooms that have king size bed don’t have a sofa bed in it the only rooms with sofa bed have 1 queen bed in it. The bathroom had many loose tiles on the floor and you could see where lots of the grout was gone. Our room had no iron, ironing board or blow dryer which should be in each room. The room smelled very musky/humid that made it uncomfortably so I had to spray some air freshener to help. Unfortunately we won’t be staying at this hotel again but I do want to acknowledge the people working there for their great customer service.

We usually book through Marriott Bonvoy and haven't ever had an issue at this location. Our air conditioner was noisy, the bed had a huge lump down the center and the pillows were ridiculous. Staff was ok, but usually very courteous and professional. 1st night of an anniversary trip and it wasn't great, by any means
