Everything was excellent: The staff, the hotel, the location a few blocks from downtown, the breakfast was very good and complete, and the best of all, the beds.
Rode in on Amtrak and it's a very short walk from the Amtrak station to the holiday inn rivercenter. We came in around 11 pm but still felt safe waiting to check in. Very friendly staff and excellent clean and spacious rooms. We will definitely return when back in San Antonio
The staff was friendly and the morning breakfast was fresh and hot.

Staff was amazing and friendly.
The hot tub light was loose and there was a wire exposed
The toilet is way too low and hard to stand up from when you are nearly 6ft tall
Spacious room, friendly service from staff throughout our stay, and surprisingly quiet for being so close to the Riverwalk. Kudos to Daisy for the friendly welcome at check-in.
