This is mine and my wife’s favorite spot. We like that it has rooms for pets and the conviene of being close to downtown. We love going to the Riverwalk as well as going to a boba spot close by.
The area was extremely quiet and peaceful. Parking was available just outside my room which made it very convenient after a long day of exploring San Antonio's food, shopping, zoo, and a concert at the Alamodome. Perfect for a couple night's stay and will definitely return when needing a rest stop when visiting San Antonio.
Was a good experience on my first time in this hotel. Room was very clean and spaceous. All services were fine. Receptionist was very kind and gave a good service.
The hotel is in a shady part of town, but the manager was tremendously gracious and knowledgeable. The room was clean. We will stay there we visit San Antonio again.
My son and I traveled to San Antonio for a concert. The hotel was close to the venue in a quiet area of town. The manager was very welcoming, as well as the other gentleman that checked us in. The building we stayed in was new, clean and very comfortable. There was plenty of room, the AC worked great and even on the bottom floor, it was quiet. We will definitely be staying here again.
Location seemed off but once you see rooms it changes perception. It's literally don't judge a book by its cover kind of hotel only because of where is located. Clean and no trouble
Overall stay was nice. We had someone either bang on our door or window before 7AM on checkout day. Also heard a lot of furniture being moved around on the floor above our room that morning as well. Would have been nice to have been able to sleep in. Over cleanliness of the room and bathroom was great though.

Good Hotel w Basics
We had a good stay. The owner, Rick, was very accommodating and had excellent customer service. While the bed was somewhat uncomfortable to our liking and the room wasn’t exactly “clean”, we had no problems and will likely stay again. Worth the nightly rate!
Close to downtown San Antonio but not walkable.....at least not alone. The rooms with windows on Commerce could use a blackout curtain in addition to the decorative one; the room was filled with street and other business lights all night. A blackout curtain would fix that. Very comfortable bed and pillows. No hair dryer in the room; maybe available upon request. $50 deposit due on check-in, even if you already paid for your room online. $5 parking lot fee. If you do not have a US-based streaming service for watching television, don't bother turning on the tv. It is only for apps. And even if you have an app service, be sure to delete your email/password from the log on, so the next person does not see them. For your security, don't turn on the tv. I hate this hotel trend.
Seemed to be a run-down area of town. Staff were pleasant, room ok.
It served its purpose for the night, but we relocated fir our remaining nights in san antonio.
Everything was great. I got a quiet nights sleep. The room was awesome. When I look for a hotel I always look for a coffee pot, fridge, and microwave. My rooms had all three. I am a huge coffee drinker and hate to go to the lobby to get coffee. Either the coffee is too cold, non at all, or very old.
