Riverwalk Access/Bed Size and Shower Issues

The hotel design is lovely and full of history; however, we experienced some issues with our room. The king-size beds are more full/queen-size, and our shower temperature did not stay consistent, going from warm, scorching hot to cold within seconds. Construction is blocking the view of the Alamo. However, it appears they stop construction on weekends, so we weren't disturbed by any noise. Otherwise, it's easy to get to the Riverwalk and back, with ADA access just outside the hotel.

We stayed at the hotel this past weekend and most things about the hotel we liked . The location was excellent and the pool area was nice. . What we didn’t like was the parking $49 a day to park because you had to valet or pay to park in the public parking area. The wording is very confusing and there is a tow truck that patrols very frequently. Just go ahead and charge parking in the price of the hotel. That way people know what to expect

A word of caution. Being a very old and vintage hotel, the HVAC system is severely lacking. We had the thermostat set to 70, but the temp never dropped below 76. It was extremely hot and stuffy, which made it very difficult, if not impossible, to get a good nights sleep.

We stay for the night parade during Fiesta 2025. Seating was just outside the hotel. Riverwalk access within minutes for shopping and dining options. Hotel is a litte dated, but it's the historical Menger, so no issues there. Contruction outside the hotel as the city is making things better....I hope.
