The location is perfect. Half a block from the Riverwalk and close to everything. We always stay here. We park our car and walk the whole weekend. The car moves again when we head back home. We will always stay here.

I understand it's a historic hotel but looked too run down. The employees aren't too friendly or informative. Their service is pretty low. The only thing i liked is that it's close to many attractions.

I’m from houston and I had booked a night with O’Biien Historic Hotel. 45 minutes away they call me to tell me the room I had booked had a problem and that they would refund me my money back. So I did have nowhere to stay and I had to drive back to Houston. I have never had this happen to me. I wouldn’t never want someone to have to go through this. 👎👎👎👎👎

The evening staff was friendly and helpful. I was excited to stay in one of the historic hotels, but there was quite a bit of deferred maintenance that the hotel needs to attend to. The beds are not very comfortable and we were put in a downgraded room from what we booked and paid for

This property is old and tired. It has tons of potential though. Needs paint and removal of carpeting and a good deep clean. The water pressure in the shower was excellent and there was lots of hot water. The bedding and towels were clean. Our patio provided a great view of La Villita and the location provides access to the Riverwalk at several locations.

One thing I didn’t like is there is no public restroom in the lobby so if more than one person has to go to the bathroom at the same time then you’re screwed. Other than that it was a very quick walk to the riverwalk (1 block) and that was good. Kinda sketchy during the walk but if you don’t go too late then you’re fine. Also didn’t like how the hotel tried to charge $25 for parking when you can park for 24 hrs directly across the street for $7.50. They should tell the guests about that. I was ok cuz I figured it out on my own. But I would stay there again because it’s pretty cheap for so close to the riverwalk. Balcony didn’t offer much of a view (the parking lot) but it was nice to have a place to go outside

the staff were some of the friendliest, most helpful people and they made the stay more enjoyable. without them, i would rank my stay much lower. positives: close to the riverwalk. it’s not even 3 minutes to get to everything which pretty much makes this hotel worth the value. once again, the staff was super friendly and professional. negatives: the hotel has a very strong mildew smell. the common areas are clean, but our room had an overwhelming odor of mildew and maybe even mold honestly. the door to our bathroom was basically broken. the sheets on one of our two beds were stained so we only slept in the one bed (which was fine because only two of us were staying in the room). the toilet wouldn’t function properly unless holding onto the handle for awhile. i had to fix it no less than 4 times. the pictures of the hotel on their website made the rooms look a lot nicer than they actually were. while the hotel is historic, it is in desperate need of renovation. once again, the staff was WONDERFUL and they were the most positive aspect of our stay. we would definitely come back if renovations were made based on the location and staff alone.

Only good thing about it was it was close to river walk other then that the room has a strong mildew smell to it they have a floor fan in the room cause it gets hot there they have a tv but no cable services you have to get Roku services on your phone and add a credit card payment there’s no local channels either customer service tried to fix the tv but couldn’t so he said he would wave my parking fee when I check out they said they don’t know anything about it it also says there’s free breakfast but that’s not so you have to pay for breakfast this was a bad stayed I would recommend no one to stay here I would of stayed at motel 6 for half the price they said they said they give out parking pass at was there at 3:00 check in time and they said they didn’t have any seem like a lie to me he said they had some then he said he is out of them
