Good Value

We did not use the pool or workout room, the breakfast was o.k., nothing special. The rooms were clean, the staff was friendly, and the location was near the military base and close to downtown and the river walk.

Fantastic!!

I loved staying here, I will never go anywhere else when I'm in San antonio! The staff was always polite, courteous, and professional. The room was clean, spacious, and had everything we needed. The breakfast was good, but there wasn't any kind of meat, which I would have liked, it was mostly things with sugar. We didn't get to use the pool, but we appreciated it being there and will try to get to use it next time. If you are looking for somewhere close to downtown, inexpensive, lots of aminiites, and just a pleasantly relaxing experience, there is no other place to go!

Mediocre Western

Room- small, smelled of cigarettes, but was non smoking room. Free parking-good, off street, felt secure Shower-great, but you'll need it 'cuz bed is hard hard hard. 4 pillows per bed and none comfortable. Indoor pool and jacuzzi- nice AC-excellent good location, close to interstate(s). Take GPS or you will definitely be lost. Don't worry about missing an exit or a turn. Another one is close by! 15 minutes from Lackland and Ft. Sam. Must dos: Alamo, Riverwalk, Tower of Americas at sunset, Nation Museum of the Pacific War in Fredricksburg, TX.
