Perfect for a trip to Sea World. 2 adults and 2 kids (4 and 1)
The Hotel is relatively new and very clean, the staff were very friendly and helpful. There is a small pool at the back (you have to cross the carpark), and plenty of parking. it is 3 floors with a corridor down the centre with rooms off either side. There are Vending machines at the front, and wash facilities on the 3rd floor.
The room was clean, with 2 queen size beds. Aircon worked well, bathroom was well appointed, and there was a fridge and microwave (handy when travelling with kids). Towels were replaced daily, and there was soap (no shampoo though), the beds were made up each day. TV included HBO, and there is a data port for internet (I did not test this).
Only downsides are the soundproofing (sometimes it sounds like there are people camped outside your door), and I would imagine being near the vending machines could be quite noisy.
The hotel is next to the outer ringroad of San Antonio, about 10 miles (10-15 mins) north of Seaworld. It has a 16 screen cinema, and some restaurants next to it.. We ate at Applebee's on the first night, which is about 5 minutes walk., there a sidewalk , so you don't have to dodge the traffic. A little further (on the opposite side of the road is a large shopping centre, with a Target, and many shops (Barnes & Noble) and restaurants (Jack in Box, Chilis, Chuckie Cheese etc) both drive in and sit down.
If you wan't to go into San Antonio (Downtown), be prepared for 30-45 minute journey - I would recommend staying closer if you want to go downtown in the evenings etc
We shall probably be back next year when we visit Sea World again !!
