Top hotels in Near East Side
Red Roof Inn PLUS+ San Antonio Downtown - Riverwalk
Overpriced for next to nothing except location. No microwave in room. Have to go to lobby for that. TVs are subpar. Don’t pay an extra night. They charge you double or triple. Absolutely terrible! Unfriendly staff that do not care about customer satisfaction. Spend the money somewhere better!

Good breakfast buffet, beds were clean, close to shopping although there was a homeless camp outside of our parking area so we did not walk anywhere we drove where we wanted to go.
