Three families chose the Comfort Suites Alamo/Riverwalk to meet and stay for our vacation in Dec 2012. One family from Indiana and two from North Carolina. We wanted a reasonably priced place to stay that was within a short distance to the Riverwalk. We are so happy with our choice. It was evident upon checking in that Manuel behind the counter was there to help us in any way he could. He took care of checking us in, but more than that, he made us feel welcome right away. He answered all of the questions we had related to our plans, giving us direction and assistance with amenities that were at our diposal, including free shuttle to the areas we were interested in going to. He was a perfect beginning to our stay here (and he continued with the same help and friendly service throughout our stay). Great customer service did not end there. The staff at the morning breakast was also very attentive to our needs. It was easy to see with the way they would greet you, offer their assistance, and just the positive attitude each one would display as they went about performing their service. Georgia and the entire staff really made us feel welcome each morning when we arrived for breakfast. Once as I was standing and deciding what I might like to have for breakfast, Georgia immediately asked if I needed any assistance with anything and if she could be of any help. We also had the fortune to meet Sherry the owner, and it quickly became evident why all of the staff placed such importance on customer service. Sherry made us feel like valued guests, and any opinions that we had, good or bad, were of value to her. As we chatted with Sherry, her attitude towards customer service was so evident that it was easy to see why it has successfully filtered to each member of her staff. We were within walking distance of the Riverwalk, but their shuttle was an option as well if walking a few blocks is not your desire. There were many items to choose from for breakfast, all good tasting and good quality. Our room was vey spacious and comfortable, and the beds slept very nicely. The heated pool and hot tub were very enjoyable, including a nice, covered seating area by the pool. If you're looking for a reasonably priced place to stay in this area, I think you would enjoy your stay at what we felt was a very nice place that puts such a high value on customer service.

I am most proud of the fact that you remember so much about our staff, including their names, as they are the ones who maintain the high quality service at our hotel on a daily basis. Moreover, we appreciate all your compliments about the hotel's features and amenities as we are doing "light" remodeling to the hotel currently (including we have just installed all brand new Precor fitness equipment). Overall, I am overwhelmed that your trip to San Antonio was so memorable, and we truly hope that you and your friends make the time to visit us again in your future travels. Thank you again for all your feedback.
