Great Location

Had a great time in San Antonio at this Hotel. It was a 2 min cab ride or 10 min walk to the alamo and riverwalk in downtown San Antonio. The price was much lower than other hotels in the same area, and given the amenities were satisfactory it was well worth it.

Save money by staying here. It isn't a 5 star hotel, but if you are just visiting it is great. Had everything I needed, nice staff, and for what you pay can't beat it.

Not Clean, Uninterested Staff

When I arrived, the lobby, elevators, etc. were undergoing major renovation. No problem with that, but the staff wasn't very attentive or customer-focused. I could live with that as well, but my real problem was the room. The bathroom had not been cleaned... the sink was dirty and the shower had a used bar of soap and a facecloth left from the last guest. There was also a tipped over spray bottle of cleaner next to the bed. They need to pay a great deal more attention to detail.

San Antonio

Stayed at this hotel based on the price. However, once you arrive at the hotel, they charge you $5.00 a day to park your car in the parking lot (I am sure this is a means of generating money to pay for their parking structure). I told the receptionist that it did not mention anything about this fee when I booked . He said "Yea, I know" and continued to charge me. Overall a fair value except for the parking issue.

Great value & comfort

I was extremely pleased with all that Red Roof had to offer--very clean rooms, FREE WI-FI and great responsive staff. Management went the extra mile to accomodate myself and all runners in a recent marathon running event. Only thing left to upgrade is the TVs.

Pretty Average.

The hotel was pretty average. The staff was friendly and the rooms were clean. All the tourist sites were a short walk away and I never had any trouble. I wish I didn't spend too much per night but for the location, it's not a bad price at all.

Clean, reasonable, near Riverwalk

Inn was clean and front desk staff very helpful. The breakfast supply of coffee, juice, muffins, bagels, and fruit was always adequate even if we arrived near the end of the serving period. Coffee/tea was available in lobby all day. Room was as expected for the price. You can walk to the Alamo and Riverwalk if you don't mind walking a few blocks. Trolley stop is nearby.

Great Location and Nicest Staff

The staff went out of their way to help my aging mother. She lost a decorative jewel off of her sandal. A staff member found it and returned it to my mother after we had notified the front desk of the loss! It was a wonderful stay! Thank You!

The River walk and the Alamo are only 3 blocks away. You are right next to the freeway, so you can get anywhere fast!
