The rooms are very large, as well, and the closets are bigger than some hotel bathrooms.<br /><br />Crystal: San Antonio has really grown tremendously in the last 10 years or so, and it's got so many things to see. Pee Wee Herman and Ozzy Osborne relieving himself on the Alamo are what many people still associate with San Antonio!<br />ShellyShellynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-249763712759401212.post-84240559705299970992011-08-10T01:07:07.451-05:002011-08-10T01:07:07.451-05:00I went to the Alamo as a child a child but remembe...I went to the Alamo as a child a child but remember nothing of it. <br /><br />What I do remember is the movie Pee Wee Herman's Big Adventure in which he went in search of the Alamo. Silly. <br /><br />Maybe it's time to visit San Antonio again.

Maybe you'll get to take your family there someday!<br /><br />Sush: I think you would love the St. Anthony's- and yes, I remember how very cold it was there in Feb., unseasonably so. Just remember to avoid the horses the next time you go!<br /><br />Shady: I am proud of San Antonio and their efforts to make it into a nice destination. I wish other cities in Texas would take note and do the same.

Isn't it wonderful when a dirty, run-down part of a city is transformed into a clean, inviting family and tourist friendly place? I admit that I envisioned the Alamo as much larger than what these pictures reveal. The St. Anthony's is spectacular. I'm told that when the Governator checked out he uttered the now famous words "I'll be back."Shady Del Knighthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03839935472941264414noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-249763712759401212.post-54546155072983056032011-08-09T12:34:41.582-05:002011-08-09T12:34:41.582-05:00I was in San Antonio in February a few years back ...I was in San Antonio in February a few years back and it was freezing. We did visit the Alamo and the Riverwalk all very unique. I wish I would have known about that beautiful hotel, I love the older hotels with history and their unique style and glamour!
