Clean room. Good breakfast. Valet parking is only available if you have a car, and the rate is a bit high. We used the parking meter instead.

I am very disappointed in the fact that we are forced to valet and not given an option to self park in the hotel’s garage. To expect people to valet , pay a ridiculous amount per night and then feel obligated to tip for something you didn’t even want is ridiculous. Give your guests the option and do not force it upon them. One night I had to wait over 10 min for them to come get my car. After a long day in the cold that is not something I want to deal with. I would not stay here again because of that. It’s a 200 extra charge I was not expecting and I’m furious over it.

El hotel está muy bien ubicado, Se caminan cincuenta metros, se cruza una calle ancha y se camina de nuevo cien metros y se está en el Alamo. Está en una zona céntrica, de ahi se camina otra cuadra y se puede bajar al river walk. El personal es muy amable, solicitamos más paños porque eramos tres personas dos noches y solo habian dos pero nos dieron más. Inconvenientes: Reservamos este hotel porque era el único que tenia una habitación privada y una sala con sofa cama, y cada habitación con su televisor, para dar mas privacidad porque eramos 3 personas, sin embarago el sofá cama no sirve, el colchón son solo los resortes y una colchoneta en donde se sienten todos los resortes. No se puede dormir en ese sofa cama, tuve que dormir incómodo en el sillón, porque como cama no se podía. Deberían cambiar esos sofá cama porque no sirven. Esa habitación estaria bien pero solo para dos personas porque el sofá cama no sirve. El aire acondicionado hace mucho ruido, es como estar en un avión. Cada vez que el vecino de arriba abre las llaves de los baños suena como si fuera el baño de la habitación. Decía que el parqueo eran 40 la noche pero nos cobraron 50 dolares más impuestos de parqueo y solo con valet parking, nos dijeron que por ser un carro grande. Por su parte es un hotel familiar y seguro.
