  • Engine customer Mar 2020

    Friendly staff, room was clean. The room is starting to look shabby with peeling wall paper and stained carpet.

  • Engine customer Mar 2020

    I loved the retro feel. The energy there was amazing and everyone was extremely friendly and helpful. I am told that it is going to become a Hampton and I truly hope they leave the same style intact. Modernizing it would be the wrong way to go. One room was definitely cleaner than the other. I stayed two separate nights and though each room was clean, the second room was definitely cleaned with more detail involved.

  • Engine customer Mar 2020

    Location close to my conference. No hot water. Incredibly loud mechanical noise from elevator consistently every few minutes all night.

  • Engine customer Mar 2020

    Location to the Riverwalk made this a great choice! I did not like the excessive parking fee so we parked at a public parking site.

  • Engine customer Feb 2020

    Nothing stood out to it

  • Engine customer Feb 2020

    Everything was broken, there was feces in the hallways, the doors didn't close correctly. There was nothing good about this hotell we didn't even stay one night. This place is not safe, rotting floors, feces in the halls, broken doors. Stay away

  • Engine customer Feb 2020

    Nice location. Rooms were clean, beds were comfortable. Staff was very friendly. $32 per day for parking was a bit pricey!

  • Engine customer Feb 2020

    Nothi f The room The location

  • Engine customer Feb 2020

    The location is near the Riverwalk and the staff is friendly The wallpaper in the bathroom was falling off the wall and the guest parking lot has some large pot holes.

  • Engine customer Feb 2020

    Staff was friendly, understaffed, coffee shop not open as expected, room kept clean and supplied. Maid left room unsecured all day by putting the latch to hold door open, when I got back to room at 5:30 it was still open. It was closed when I left. Self parking was closed for two days, when had a Red Cross convention and the start of the Rodeo.

  • Engine customer Feb 2020

    Hotel was easily accessible. Great staff. Breakfast choices were great. The price was excellent even with charge for parking. El Tropicana is a best kept secret. I am recommending to all I know that will travel to San Antonio. Update in bathrooms. Commode was too close to wall. Sink had cracks, yet did not leak. There was a mildew problem around grouting in bathroom. The room was very spacious and comfortable with exception of too light of covers. Our unit was not heating.

  • Engine customer Feb 2020

    It's by the river and main attractions Car parking. We have to pay for it while on website its say free car parking

  • Engine customer Feb 2020

    Trash Dirty

  • Engine customer Jan 2020

    Due to a snowstorm, I was unable to attend, and they didn't give a refund.

  • Engine customer Jan 2020

    Everything. It is very comfortable. The floor level. I would've liked to be higher.

  • Engine customer Jan 2020

    I’ve been by this hotel a few times and thought it was kinda retro looking so decided to stay this trip. The property was clean and everything was in working order. The staff was nice enough to hold my luggage as I had a later flight out and on Riverwal

  • Engine customer Jan 2020

    price too expensive.

  • Engine customer Jan 2020

    It was clean but old and far from the Riverwalk action. Too far down the Riverwalk and $30 per night for parking is ridiculous!

  • Engine customer Dec 2019

    Very clean room and nice staff N/A
