Hit with 40 dollar parking with no notice

The hotel it self was okay, it's clean and convenient because of the location, you walk in and if you prepay and have no choice but to stay there, your hit with a 40 dollar valet fee, because they have no parking, your option is to find parking in the street, the 2nd problem are no ice machines, even motel6 have ice machines. They give a fridge with ice maker that makes 6 cubes a day, what a joke. It was clean and close to everything.

I arrived early (9am) and was offered the early check in fee and I said no because I was going out anyways so i didn’t mind to have the room ready by the time stablished(4) but the receptionist still charged me the early fee and I was distracted talking to a friend in the meantime so when I paid I told her and she was like oh well now you can have your room. Ask for refund and she didn’t even answer so my only complain and just a heads up the parking for guest has a charged of $40 overnight so great I was charged $75 extra.

Great experience and customer service

My family of 5 truly enjoyed our stay. The two bedroom unit was immensely spacious and our accommodation brought a sense of homeliness and ease of mind having everything we need. Having three kids and separate spaces throughout the room was wonderful oh and breakfast provided was a big plus. Definitely coming back!

Hotel was in a good location, however paying for parking was very inconvenient, and not stated before booking. During our visit, they turned the water off for 3 hours. some of the front desk staff were rude. Also the free breakfast was only from 6:30 am to 9 am. Not very convenient for guest.

It was an awesome stay, we never got our telephone line working but its okay we had our cellphones. Also the swimming pool was a bit small, but other than that it was an amazing experience, about a 3 min. Walk to the alamo and a 7min. Walk to the Riverwalk. If you ask for roomservice from the moment you check in, it will be done! Valet parking was awesome too, a bit pricey but worth it. We stayed 4 nights and 5 days, we are a family of 3. If you dont mind walking, it is a beautiful experience! Would recommend it to others! Loved it all!
