Spooky Prices
Staying in a very old hotel has its pros and cons. If the hotel chooses to run AC, you cannot heat your room - it is one or the other for the entire hotel. In other words, climate control is incredibly outdated. The dining area was "nice" but way overpriced and the food was as sad as the typical riverwalk tourist trap restaurants. Construction was all around the hotel. Not one person did anything to make my stay special. Valet parking was expensive, and they tried to charge me an extra day. Overall, I was not impressed - didn't even get to see a ghost.

Room small
Room was alittle small. We had the classic king. Expected better service. Belle took care of us when arriving. She was great. Room was cold. Finally asked for heater . It help alot . I guess i just expected better service. Ask for accessible room. There was none available. It made it difficult when taking shower. Hotel location was awesome. Close to everything. Parking so expensive. Should include it with room.

Couples get away
We had a great stay! Three nights. We didn’t have breakfast on the property, $25 buffet for eggs and bacon and fruit bar seemed a little steep. They have made to order but we opted for local breakfast. $25 a day ballet parking, we were expecting that, only says parking available which was true. Great location, right next to The Alamo.

Nice place
The hotel is conveniently located near The Alamo, River Walk, and shopping. The courtyard and pool were well maintained. A towering Christmas tree was a nice touch. Everything was clean. The temperature control if the room was a little wonky and the walls were thin. Service was great and the brunch was top notch.
