Pros

Rooftop pool and sundeck offering city views

Within 0.3 miles of multiple dining options including Saltgrass Steak House and Casa Rio

Full continental breakfast with made-to-order hot options

Pet-friendly accommodations for animals up to 75 lbs

Cons

No self-parking available on site

Airport shuttle service not provided for the 12.5 miles journey to San Antonio International

“I think its location, a block from the River Walk, is a real advantage; from there, the rooftop pool and city views feel like an oasis. On-site dining simplifies things, and I noted particularly friendly service. For a straightforward stay in a prime spot, it looks like a solid choice.”
