This property was rated very high on Trip Advisor so we booked it for a long weekend with friends. While it's okay, I didn't think it was that great and certainly not worth $200 a night. First, there is no parking since it's right on the Riverwalk. You have to park in a no parking zone while you check in and then go half a block to a public parking garage where you pay $7 every time you leave and re-enter. The front door is locked since its downtown and we were let in by other guests but no one is there to check you in or tell you about the parking. The building is very nice and was once a wholesale grocery store and before it was a hotel, someone had converted it into a downtown loft.. It's got wooden floors so if you happen to be in the room on the second floor where we were you get to here the people getting their breakfast on the third floor. The breakfast is mediocre -- in fact of all the breakfast included places in the US and Europe we've been to this ranks in the bottom half. Nothing bad -- just the usual cereal, yogurt and breads, but kind of a disappointment since if you read their website it sounds so much better. Finally, you have to put an entire night's deposit on your room and there's a 10 day cancellation policy which is unusual for most hotels -- although they consider themselves a bed and breakfast. Rooms are nicely decorated and spacious -- much larger than average rooms. It was rainy the day we were there and the property is right beside a downtown McDonalds so maybe that's what colored my impression. But I kept thinking this is not the best property in San Antonio and certainly not for the price.
