Horrible Dirty painful disgusting but friendly front desk
Where do I begin... First We are not complainers. Wev'e stayed in bad motels as we travel a lot across u.s. My brother manages a hotel in L.A. My sister is head of house keeping at a hotel. I know the ins and out of hotels / motels. There will always be a bump or 2 in the road so to speak but this was cheap Tijuanna flop room bad. 
First the plus side: It is close to Alamo/ Riverwalk. area looked kinda questionable but we had no problems walking even at night. Upon check in the front desk was really friendly and showed us maps and explained where all the good travel spots were. Very helpful and down to earth girl. The Continental breakfast was not too bad but could have used some bagels and cream cheese instead of mini powdered donuts and mini muffins. No protein whatsoever.
They have free parking but fills up at night. You have to pay anywhere else near there to park. 
Now the bad... DIRTY, disgusting, dirty. Sheets were almost brown, pillow cases were stained and my pillows were lumpy mis-shapen as if they have been laundered too many times by a rookie, smelled heavily of men's BO. Towels were dirty brown spots and streaks. Could not tell if they were stained but laundered or not laundered. Gave 2 towels and 1 wash rag for a family of 4. Asking for more got us 2 more but they asked for the old towels in exchange.. HUH? The smell was horrible! room 126 smells heavily like male cat spray/urine. When we went to front desk to complain they gave us a bottle of cleaner! they expected us to clean it up. Pet friendly places usually have a special enzymatic cleaner / spray that removes the smell. It is impossible to remove any other way. We bought Febreeze and tried that to no avail every day to douse the area of the smell. The walls were really filthy near the beds, the toilet was either badly stained inside the bowl and needed to be replaced or not cleaned in a long time. It looked like brown slime/grime streaks inside bowl. They have these great unusual headboards that we liked until we found what was obviously human bodily fluids sprayed on it (hint: it was not mayonais). when booking the room online we requested fresh laundered linnens including top blankets/comforter (cause we all know they are rarely laundered and many people do the nasty on them) and requested the room be aired out. Neither was done. So we requested clean blankets and were told they had no extra ones. the floor nearly turned our socks and feet black. 2nd day I was getting my 4 yr old daughter dressed, she was naked when the room service knocked to clean. My husband opened the door just enough to say no thank you, but they pushed the door open and insisted we at least give them our trash as they looked around the room. This was disturbing to say the least. the 3rd day we come back from outing to find 1/2 the room cleaned but everything dumped on an unmade dirty bed including electronics and wet bathing suits together, the other bed was made and fresh towels in bathroom but again, 2 towels and 1 washcloth for a family of 4. The window curtain had been pulled wide open apparently all day from housekeeping for everyone walking by on the sidewalk to see everything in our room including laptop, mp3 players, slr camera and our clothes, luggage. The sidewalk is right next to the window at eye level. now the beds themselves were horrible. one was so bad it was soooo worn it was mis-shapen and you could feel every spring in it. The other was barely better. They both are way past their prime and should be replaced. They were so bad that my husband slept on the floor. he got the best sleep. our 13 yr old and I barely slept and was in pain upon waking. my 4 yr old had one of the double doors on the dresser fall on her when she rubbed against it passing by (she was not hurt, it just softly fell) finding that it was broken at the hinges. We could not change the channel on the TV, the remote did not work though the batteries were working fine. there was no chair to sit at the desk and the wifi was a joke. i had to sit near the door to get connected and it was mainly connected to there network but without internet. when it did connect to internet, it was soooo very slow it timed out most sites. The pool we were told was open even at night. they generally did not close it unless people were getting roudy and loud so my husband took our 4 yr old to the pool at 9pm when we got back from dinner only to be told that it was being closed in 10 minutes though we are very quiet. We were disappointed but ok with it. the next night we were back in the pool and when the staff were off they came into the pool are as well. They began cussing, smoking and talking ghetto trash type of talk. talking about shootings at motel and bad area blah blah...in front of my kids! then I saw what I thought was a thick dark string float up to my 4 yr old chest. I went to grab it and toss it onto the deck of the pool only to find it was moving , squirmming and quickly slipping out of my hand trying to get to my daughters chest. I noticed it was a baby snake! it moved just like a quick side to side swimming motion like a snake with a small head on it. I told the staff in the pool and they looked then jumped out of the pool as I was trying to get it away from my daughter (with a severe snake phobia). it slipped out of my hand so many times it finally got away and swam into the side drain hole. We got out of the pool as the manager came by and the staff told him about it. Then one of the staff pulled out the drain basket but it was gone. The manager said he was closing the pool but we look outside 15 later to find people swimming in it. I know it was a freak thing but there was no apology of any sort. After 3 days we found another nearby hotel to finish off our vacation. Boy were we sore and felt sooo dirty. It seems like it has potential but they really need to up the cleaning/repair and customer service there. I think they need someone to train them in hotel housekeeping, stop being so cheap on the cleaning of linnens and towels and replacement of them and shampoo those carpets more often, get new beds. They also lied upon check in. they asked to get a copy of my credit card for incidentals but would not charge anything until check unless we decided to pay cash. It shows up on my card for all 3 days that very night. All in all I would not recommend this motel anytime soon unless they do some MAJOR improvements. I do not know their story. Perhaps that bought it recently and are trying to fix it up? perhaps they are the slum lord type that don't care much about there customers as long as they get there money. Either way. It was a horrible stay. But we LOVED San Antonio River walk and will be returning as soon as we can. Sadly not to this motel. And I say sadly because the price was good, the location was good and the front desk was helpful with the local area.
