A Historic Gem at a great price
I read the very mixed reviews on this hotel and was a little concerned. However, the concerns were unjust. The hotel is old but it is very clean and even with five bus tours of teenagers, it was still peaceful. The rooms are small but asking for a larger, newer room seemed no problem for the desk staff. I had a room overlooking the Alamo. The view was charming. The breakfast was good and sufficient to keep me full until lunch. The staff was easy to work with and spoke english. This is not one of the fancy hotels on the riverwalk, but you are not paying those prices either. I would gladly return to the Crockett Hotel, anytime.
