      clean rooms, FREE wireless lan i-net but no porter. do not forget to get your entree-codes for the door (you won't find somebody to open the door). Minimal service over the phone does not always work (reason: foreign mobile?). However, very good for short stay.

      Not recommended Trip type: Business "Minimum satisfaction"

      Reviewed by David of San Antonio on Mar 15, 2008

      From the pictures of the room that I was able to find on the website for this B&B, it seemed like it would be a pretty good size room with amenities for a good price. The outside looks very little like the picture on the hotels.com website, the entrance is not well-marked and was hard to find since I arrived after dark. The stairways and hallways were quite narrow, which caused some difficulties with carrying the luggage since I found no elevator. There were a couple of items in the breakfast basket that were appealing but not much. The king size bed was alright, and the room seemed big enough for one person only even though the website said it would fit two people comfortably. It left a lot to be desired from the perspective of someone who usually stays in a hotel room for the same price, but I was minimally satisfied since I did not spend much time in the room.
