The shower wouldn't stay at one temperature. Going from very hot to very cold and back many times during a short shower. A lot of noise in the middle of the night. No sign of security. Breakfast in the restaurant (buffet) was ok, but service could have been much better.

Great stay at the Menger. We enjoyed walks to the Alamo and the river walk which was all lit up for the Holidays. Construction around the Alamo Plaza introduced some minor troubles getting around.

I don’t leave reviews that often but it was pretty bad here. I got to the room and it looked okay at first. Took a shower and the water pooled to my shins. Called maintenance and they fixed it but same problem the next day. When I went to lay in bed there was food debris under the bed cover. It looked like someone had cheetos and wiped their hands everywhere. The sheets had not beed changed. This was probably five hours after turning the air conditioning on as low as it could go. The temperature did not get below 76F as the air did not work. I asked for a fan which I was able to get. Did not walk on carpet without my sandals as it was very sticky. When I first arrived after a long travel day I had gone to the bar to grab a drink. I probably waited 25-30 minutes and multiple people had walked up to the bar and gotten drinks and I had not been asked if I wanted anything at the table. Wasn’t sure if I needed to order at the bar. So without being served I left and went to Crockett Tavern with good service. All that to say, I travel a lot. I don’t expect much out of very cheap places. Even cheap places change their sheets. The Menger is very expensive. In spite of the price, it is extremely dirty. Housekeeping and maintenance were very nice and tried to remedy things quickly.

First impression wasn't that great. There is so much construction going on it was very hard to find the hotel. When you look at the pictures online you expect to see this grand colonial hotel at it's best. This is not the case at all. It's dreary. It gives more of a crimson rose feel. But the pool and the garden is magnificent. Along with the dining hall.
