We’ve stayed here 7 or 8 times and it’s always clean and quiet. No pool or fitness room but with the Riverwalk nearby, you can get miles of walking in and that’s a big part of why we go to San Antonio. Love the balcony area and can’t wait to come back.

Decently priced hotel very close to the Riverwalk and Alamo. Comfortable room with good shower and cold AC. Elevator wasn’t working but was fixed by the next morning. Parking garage was next to the hotel. Would stay there again because the price was good for the location.

Billed as a historic boutique hotel. Nothing boutique about it. Just an old outdated hotel. Decent location and staff were very nice. My wife would never ever stay again.
