Wyndham Riverside Suites

Elevator broke which I understand happens, but for over 12 hrs? There are companies to solve these problems. USE THEM. Woke up to check out and its still broken. Front desk is doing nothing but comping our parking. 7 flights with a baby, kids and luggage for 7 is unsat. Glad I’m healthy. Also fire alarm went off TWICE. both times front desk was semi rude and said «don’t worry about it!»

Love this old old building. Wyndham has done a great job of turning it to now this historic riverside suites. We always come back to this location over and over. It is close to everything and the staff is awesome

1 bedroom/​1 bath unit on the 6^th floor.
The Good: Great view (not in all units), comfortable furniture, cozy and cute overall, clean throughout, firm king-​size bed, great lighting, sufficient storage, quiet environment, strong wi-​fi, well-​situated mid-​town and right on the river walk, friendly and helpful staff.
The Not-​So-​Good: Parking is off-​site and expensive, check-​in and check-​out are inconvenient and physically challenging, wash machine operated poorly (no dryer!), A/​C failed, kitchen sink is very small and without a garbage disposer.
Summary: A nostalgic city experience — recommended.

Stayed here as a timeshare exchange in July 2015. This is not your typical II resort. There isn’t a pool, game room, or activities (But no timeshare sales people bugging you either). This is a hotel, and an old one at that. The only real positive thing that it has going for it is that it’s in the heart of SA and you can walk to many restaurants & attractions. First impression is the worst. The entrance is in a smelly alley. The door isn’t manned and there isn’t any parking. You have to search for the sign & buzzer on the adjacent wall. Then explain what you want before they buzz you in. Parking is $ 12 per day and is in a city parking garage down the street. The linens were clean and the beds were comfortable. Most of the staff was nice & helpful (The lady working the desk at night was great. The one during the day, not so much.) We were in room 308. First impression; old, dark, musty smelling. Okay size for four, would be cramped with six I think. Two windows looked out at the rooftop patio. Not down at, right at. The windows could have been doors. Had to keep those curtains closed for privacy. The other ones are just above tree level. From one, you could just see the river below and the «Tower of the Americas» in the distance. One had a tree in bloom in front of it, which was pretty. One bedroom doesn’t even have windows (can you say fire trap?), this actually worked well for my one son who likes it pitch black when he sleeps. Free Wi-​Fi worked well (Not fast enough for my sons to play LOL, but good for normal surfing & email) Warning, do not try to use the clothes washer/​dryer. The clothes come out damp & smelly. Tried drying for an extra 2−½ more hours and they still were damp & smelly. I could hear the noise from the club next door at times, but it wasn’t too bothersome for me. I did hear a noise like others mentioned and identified as the AC dripping. To me, it sounds more like a vent cover opening & closing. It was coming from the bathroom and with the door closed I could not hear it in the bedroom. All sink drains were slow and probably could have used some Draino, but I didn’t care enough to call housekeeping on that. I like to stay positive and think that management has done the best that they can with what they have, but this place just wasn’t for us. We would not recommend this hotel to friends. We will not be staying here if we visit SA again.

The only way you will get to stay in this place is if you own a Wyndham Time Share which I did at the time, or someone who owns a Time Share allows you to stay there. I loved to stay in this place Due to the fact that is is located in the heart of the riverwalk where all the activities are. If you love the San Antonio riverwalk night life this was the place to stay. And I must say it never disappointed, it wasn’t as nice as its counterpart La Cascada but what made this place special was its location on the river.
There were four types of rooms here, 1 bedroom and 1 bedroom plus then there is the two bedroom and two bedroom plus. The difference was that the plus bedrooms have a spa jacuzzi, the two bedroom plus had the master bedroom upstairs and the spa jacuzzi is located on the outside balcony just outside the master bedroom over looking the riverwalk.
Each unit has a full mini kitchen along with a washer and dryer which allows you to get groceries and cook to alleviate some of the cost of being on the riverwalk.
As with everything it does have some falls; parking is a block away in one of the city garages, if it’s full expect to find another parking place. The entrance is on the back down a narrow street so unloading and loading is kind of tricky as you need to be careful with traffic. Yes the place is old and its outdated but as I mention earlier if you love the night life this is the place to be. There is no pool or gym so keep that in mind.

I would also give it a zero if possible!
Yes it is on the Riverwalk, very fun area, BUT the entrance is in the back by a crab restaurant, which has an endless stream of stink! Next to a nightclub, which has an endless crowd of loud drakes kids.
Aside from that, here is what put me over the edge:
The advertised amenities was acess to a roof top pool. this is not true. There is not a pool, or gym, just the basics… old lumpy beds, old furniture, old everything! Not classic or antique… Old and worn out.
Parking is a block away, shared with a major hospital, good luck late at night which adds difficulty to load and unload items and people safely.
When we departed we received an absurd bill for towel service. Crazy, when I ask for clean towels I will send them back when they smell like cigarettes NOT ACCEPTABLE! Do not keep charging me for a product you cannot get right!
Vacations are gifts, not guarantees. Time off work, kids out of school, time together is so special. If Wyndam Resorts cannot understand that and treat their guest with respect, they are missing the point…
I could mention a door that was literally falling off its hing, the bugs in the showers, the dirty, ripped sofa, stained sheets… But I will leave that for them to notice, if they can open their eyes…
Best not stay here… Trust me!

It should be a zero. It’s located next to the Kremlin club. Our room thumped all night and they wouldn’t move us to another room. Not to mention you have to enter the resort and go past lots of drunk people and the front entrance smells like vomit. I will never again stay at this motel. Not family friendly and staff not helpful. Only offered ear plugs. Wow!

Our resort is the Wyndham resorts. We opted to stay at Riverside because it was easier to get into than La Cascada. I love it! It’s so convenient since it right at the riverwalk, just minutes away from everything. The building, like most buildings in any downtown, is old. The upkeep of everything is good.
We got a 2 bedroom, 2 bathroom. The master bedroom is bigger than the 2^nd bedroom, but not huge. The master bathroom is big and has 2 entrances, which I’m not a huge fan of. The 2^nd bedroom is very small; it has only little slivers of walkways around the bed to the bathroom. The bathroom is a decent size. I believe the hotel uses energy efficient light bulbs, which of course, is a great thing, but the lighting is very dim unless the lights have been on for a while. The 2^nd bathroom does not have a light in the shower, so bright showers are nonexistent here.
The living room and kitchen areas are nice and very roomy. Overall, I’d stay here again. Even though it is not as nice or as new as La Cascada, it’s location makes it worthwhile.
Also, there is only one elevator for the whole building so you may have to wait a bit for the next elevator. On the other hand, the front desk is on the 2^nd floor, so if you would like a little more privacy from hotel staff, you can just bypass that floor.
