"The hotel sent a shuttle to the airport to pick us up and drop us off at the end of our stay. The front desk staff were friendly and helpful. The room was clean and spacious. Popcorn and soda were provided in the evenings for a snack. The breakfast and supper buffets were tasty and satisfying. Would stay here again in a heartbeat."

"The cleanliness of the room left a lot to be desired (specifically in the bathroom). We also checked in and had no running water in our room for over 5 hours before being given a new room. However, the location is top notch-a short walk to the riverwalk without the big price tag of staying directly on it."
"The room that I was assigned to smelled horrible like dog urine. The host gave us a smaller room due to the smell. We had to downsize to a smaller room from a suite since the other suite smelled like human urine. "
"We were "upgraded" to a larger interior room, but it was an adjoining room that you could hear every word of someone in the next room. As it was "Fiesta week" they put a group of Gen Z's next to us who kept us up until 3am for 2 nights. After calling security "both nights", they finally checked out. One underage partier bragged about getting into bars the 2nd night because they didn't scrutinize her ID. Full disclosure, the hotel did credit me a $100 and a free breakfast for my "inconvenience". The room was clean, but "very basic"... no microwave (except a shared one in the hallway) and no dresser for a week's stay of clothes. The concierge desk was VERY persistent on getting you to go to a time share presentation. EVERYWHERE on the Riverwalk and the mall, hotels are pressuring people to sign up for a "presentation". They offer Visa cash cards, riverboat rides, carriage rides, SeaWorld tickets, free night stays... anything they can to hook you. The invitations are inundating and everywhere, so beware!"
