The Menger was an great selection for a last minute hotel for a trip to San Antonio. the hotel itself is really nice looks wise and in a very central location. Only negative I personally have is keep in mind it is an older hotel and during the summer months the AC units struggle to keep up and all i was offered was a box fan to help.
