The air conditioner was broken. Our room was hot, muggy and smelled of sewage. Guest above us had children and they were running around which made a lot of noise and kept us up all night. Half the lights in the room didn't work. The phone in the room didn't work. The bed was extremely hard and uncomfortable
This was a horrible experience. We were very disappointed with our stay
I would not be recommending the holiday Inn to anyone.

This hotel is always my and my family's go to when visiting San Antonio. It is in close proximity to many restaurants, grocery stores, UTSA, etc. Reuben was very welcoming, greeting us as we entered. Even when leaving and arriving back, he would be sure to welcome us back, which made us truly feel welcomed. I don't know the person's name, with a disability, but she too was welcoming. My husband and I enjoyed the breakfast on both days. The kitchen staff replenished any food, that ran out, on a timely basis. Our rooms were very clean overall. My only complaint concerning the room was the seating area (sofa). It was lots of stains, where no one would want to sit or place their items on it. It seemed there was a spill or something. Whatever it was, it definitely needs replaced or deep cleaned. That was my only complaint concerning the cleanliness. I absolutely love that the security worker drives throughout the night. Yes, I am a night hawk and noticed the flashing light from the car as he or she drove around on a consistent basis. All in all, this was a great stay for my husband and I as we prepare to celebrate our 30th year wedding anniversary. Thanks Holiday Inn... We hope to be back soon.😊

Stay there about a week and half, they never change the bed sheets not even once, and I like staying there cause my son loves the pool,but lately been dirty and when I ask when they going to get it clean it was like was talking Chinese cause they keep asking what do you mean? And keep saying the pool it’s open, then I did say was dirty and front desk said they were two guys fixing it this morning I ask did they cleaned it? He replied the pool its open.

The staff, was preoccupied with their phones and conversations with other co-workers, I booked this hotel as they offered a free breakfast then while checking in the woman told me that since I booked with Hotels.com, I was not eligible for the breakfast and in fact had to pay for it.
The hot tub that I asked where it was ( I was told it was outside -, which it was, but it was also broken and full of bugs and grime - which would have been nice to know before I made my way down there ready to soak my tired bones in my swimsuit). And the maids were knocking on my door even though I had a do not disturb sign on the door and well before the checkout time of 11:00.

Overall a VERY POOR experience.

Do yourself a favor and don't book here. There are other and better options not to far away.

Honestly, I will never be staying at this hotel again. It's probably the worst holiday I've ever stayed in. Besides the building looking like it's going to fall apart due to water damage. I was moved three different times and stayed in three different rooms on different floors, and each room had a problem of its own. The first was that the toilet was more like a rocking chair. And I asked to be moved, and they without question moved me. The second room I was in was larger. But look like it hadn't been clean since the hotel was open. And besides that, having to kill several roaches in my time there. It was also a bit unexpected and the third room was a suite as they changed me to that after I reviewed about the cleanliness in the overall air quality of that room. I was moved to the suite where it seemed clean. However, there was a large crack in the ceiling. The shower was a bit sketchy to use, and all in all my synopsis. Is this property has severe water damage. You can hear it when you turn the shower on or the sink.Even in the second room I was in there was water coming out of the countertop.In the kitchenette and the air conditioning was non-existent. The room was hotter than it was outside and there's a sign that says do not turn below 70. And I'm sorry, but I'm a man that likes my room at 69° and outside of the room issues, there was no restaurant on-site. They only did breakfast and it was subpar.no bar and not a safe area to be. The staff is awesome for sure. Rebuild.

I would not recommend this hotel or stay here again. Seems like they have a sewage issue. We had to moved rooms. The tub in the first room drained very slowly and the pull out bed was disgusting. The second room were moved to was a downgrade and the sink had some disgusting gunk in it. Event the maintenance man was disgusted. That sink drained slowly too. They were supposed to come clear it out with a snake but never did. I needed a room to wash out my baby’s bottles and I didn't want his bottles to even touch the sink. They do very minimal cleaning. They need to replace a lot of the furniture that’s stained and get some plumbing done.

Plain Jane small rooms. (We had a double queen room) it wasn’t extremely dirty but the room was definitely not clean. Stayed 3 nights 4 days and each time the house keepers would only making the beds and change the towels not once took the trash out. Broken tiles in the entry way, bottle caps and clothing tags were on the floor when we first got there, water splashes on the sink and mirror, what I assume Is makeup stains on the shower curtain, greasy head/hair prints on both headboards of the beds, finger prints all over the microwave, drink circle marks on the nightstands, the one chair in the room had stains all over it, and the carpet had stain spots all over it as well. The free shampoo, conditioner soap and lotions bottles in the room were used. I booked This room because of the “excellent” and “very good” reviews… the front entry and check in area and elevators and hallways were spotless and very clean. Staff was very friendly.
The beds were extremely hard and for me uncomfortable.

The gentleman at the front desk who checked us in was very friendly and the lady who works the breakfast area is very sweet, however we stayed for two night and there was almost never anyone at the front desk if you need help. The water in the shower never got hot and the tub was so slow to drain that you had 3 inches of water standing in it by the time your shower ended. The carpet and couches need a good scrub but I will say that the beds were clean. I did have to use the couch cushions in the window though as the black out shade was a good 6-8 inches too short and I was blinded by parking lot lights at night. Overall I think I will be finding some place else to stay and definitely a place that doesn’t charge for breakfast.

Room and amenities where good, unfortunately the staff was not welcoming at all. Giving 1 star based on staff only. The night front desk staff was extremely rude to the point of being disrespectful. Check in questions were rudely demanded and I was treated with an like I was a bother and not a paying client. I normally give the benefit of the doubt and thought that because it was late he might have been tired, but when we came back from dinner he was very nice to the check in group that had just arrived, not the same attitude I got from him just a couple of hours prior. Same thing the following day with my husband when he requested some additional blankets and other items, rude and crude, pointing at where to get items with an unpleasant attitude. The staff in the morning was not rude, just indifferent. At no point were we asked how our stay had been. I have been wanting to stay at this hotel for a while because if the convenience in location. But I honestly do not want to go back to be treated like a nuisance. No hospitality at all. This has been one of the worst experiences with staff I have had in a while.

Very disappointing experience. When we arrived, there was no one at the front desk, and we were left waiting with no explanation. A hotel should always have someone available at reception.

When a staff member finally showed up, his attitude was tense and unwelcoming. Every time we approached the desk, he seemed irritated and confrontational. Instead of resolving concerns professionally, the situation escalated unnecessarily, and police involvement was even mentioned — which was shocking given that we were simply paying guests expecting basic service.

Management should seriously review how guest interactions are handled. Hospitality requires professionalism and respect, and unfortunately, that was not our experience here.

I would not recommend staying at this property.

We called the front desk and again terrible attitude, told us someone was coming, never came, went down to front desk, asked what was happening and agian terrible, made me feel like it was my fault, and was asking for too much, finally asked for another room, he gave me the keys, new room was just ok, smaller and still some hairs in the shower.

The check-in was quick, did have to wait cause of others being helped but once it was my turn very quick. The room was nice a bit tight but beds were vary comfortable and quiet, the breakfast was good for a continental breakfast, but we only got breakfast tickets for two of the three guests, and would have had to pay extra for all of us to have breakfast together. I understand charging for anyone not staying but when booking I put there was three adults. Only other point was the shower head could not move it and because the shower was placed high it was impossible to not be in the jet of water to soap up. Over all good stay would come back

First of all the staff front desk awesome specially, Steven and the cleaning crew very nice. This review goes to management. This hotel is outdated. Shower curtain didn’t fit well.water splash outside..After a long day of meetings .no hot water..just warm water. Traffic is ridiculous..very congested. The bedroom curtain are Not blackout curtains. Light comes in as soon as sunrise comes in. There is no free breakfast. It’s buffet breakfast $12.95 and $6.95 for kids certain age. The TV doesn’t have cable channels just local channels and the audio on some channels not clear. You do get 2 hbo channels but can’t connect to Netflix or other apps and volume only goes up to certain volume. It doesn’t have a guide channel on remote so you don’t know what all shows are on. You need to use channel up or down. If you don’t mind none of this and you want to go to Six Flags theme park or La Cantera shopping center. This is the hotel to stay if you don’t mind the craziness of traffic and everything else I mentioned. Peace
