Howard Johnson Inn & Suites San Antonio

I do not believe they should let people stay in this hotel with all the construction going on. One side of the hotel is having sewer work done so it smells like sewer on that side of the hotel. The other side the walls are not all completed. It would help if the staff was even a little bit pleasant but they are rude. The only nice spot is the front check in.

The price was $39/night, and considering it was a Howard Johnson I thought it was a good deal. Big disappointment! The quality of the sheets and the towels was inferior to what you would find in a Motel 6. The hallways are not air conditioned (or it is insufficient), so they were at a balmy 85-90 degrees. The A/C in my room was running in fan mode when I got there, so the temperature was less than comfortable. That would not have been too bad except for the fact that the maid turns it off after cleaning, so every night I walked into a very hot room that takes almost two hours to reach a decent temperature. Another detail is that they took an imprint of my credit card at check-in. In my previous experiences with Hotels.com that was never necessary. He said is was for "inconsequentials". Well, if it generates a charge on my credit card, it has a consequence, doesn't it? The incident made me uneasy, and to this day I'm expecting and "inconsequential" to show up in my balance.
