Should allow to cancel a second night

Was not satisfied with the cost/value and tried to cancel the second night but was told no cancellations. It was in our agreement which I understand, but moving forward, I will never do a “no cancellation if pre-paid again”.

Thank you!

We want to thank the staff for their friendliness and for letting us have the room a little early. The day was hot and we needed to cool off. We loved the room with the balcony. My husband and I spent a lot of time there. Thank you!

It's a great hotel next to the Alamo and a 5-minute walk to the Riverwalk. Staff was friendly, helpful and welcoming. My only suggestion to replace the plugs located on the lamps 🔌 would not hold. Had to use wall sockets. Otherwise a wonderful stay!

Beautiful, historic hotel. I picked this hotel based on reviews and the photos. I loved the uniqueness of the building. After I booked I began to read about all of the history involved and enjoyed that as well. My room could have been cleaner but I just went with it because it is an old building. I highly recommend it for the walking aspect, you are located next door to the alamo and a short walk to the riverwalk and mall.
