I'm always loath to leave a less-than-good review for any property. Please take this with the following grains of salt: San Antonio is a very expensive city for hotels, if you want to be anywhere near the downtown area. And I generally like staying at "funky, refreshed, boutique-y" converted motels, like the LOGE chain. This one is competitively priced, but the competition is the very pricey downtown hotels (the free parking is a definite advantage over downtown, but the hospitality taxes in SA are universally high). And it's funky... but that's all. Not updated, rather painted over. That includes the walls and floors, even in the bathroom--which were peeling to reveal the underlying tile. The shower's pressure was virtually non-existant, and the ancient hardware made it very hard to adjust the temp. The single-pane windows were all caulked shut. It had a good split-ductless air-conditioner (which we didn't need in March), and a plug-in oscillating heater (which we did). There's a Keurig machine in the office if you want coffee. To be clear, the location is decent--not too far from downtown, and backs to Brackenridge Park. Despite being right on Broadway, our room was remarkably quiet. The pool area/courtyard is quite nice. There's a bunch of fast food in a very short walking distance, along Broadway. All in all, relatively inexpensive for a SA hotel, relatively centrally located, relatively comfortable. And free parking! Just don't bring someone you're trying to impress.

This property is so cute! The rooms were nice and spacious. They included noise machines that I really appreciated. The only thing that was the thin comforters. It was difficult to get warm at night. Other than that, I had a great stay!

Wonderful

The property is well maintained and beautifully landscaped. The room was comfortable and clean. The staff were friendly and helpful. We enjoyed ourselves so much we have already booked an additional stay later this year.
