I was pleasantly surprised with my 4 night stay for a convention. The staff was wonderful and very polite. Check-in was about the quickest I've ever experienced at a large hotel. I had a standard double room with lots of room and a great view. Yes, they are still renovating a few out of the way places, especially on the second floor, but that was hardly noticeable. The restaurant on the second floor was very good and reasonably priced, especially the breakfast buffet. Terrific location for the Riverwalk, Alamo and the Mall. You have to walk about a block to get to the Convention Center but it's a nice walk. If you don't take the Riverwalk to the Convention Center, you have to walk through the other Marriott (RiverCenter) across the street to get there. The Market Place or Mercado was just a short (10 min) bus ride down the street that the hotel is on and a bargin for $1. There are several great Mexican restaurants there and well worth the trip. I thought this was a great hotel and would not hesitate to book it again if I'm ever in San Antonio again.
