Reviews for Hotel Real del Rio
Review 1:Room service is advertised as 24 hours on the menus, but we were disappointed that we were only able to order bottled sodas after the restaurant closed, so we didn't get to eat at the hotel (so I cannot comment on the food or restaurant.) Towels were very clean but well worn, should be replaced. Also the lighting at the sink/vanity was awkward and unflattering.
Review 2:Beautiful room with plenty of space. The shower was the best, great water pressure!! The full length mirror was an unexpected plus. Outlets for charging phones and electronics were conveniently placed throughout the room. Hotel location was quiet but close to shopping and restaurants and only a quick drive to Centro. Would definitely stay here again!
Review 3:No English channels, and the channels are very limited.
Review 4:The location is about a 5$ cab ride from about anywhere you want to go. Or walking distance, if you don't mind. It is an easy area to learn. Cabs right outside, breakfast buffet is good. It is very clean for the price, and location.
Review 5:No bad experiences, and it was cleaner than I expected. Can't complain, really.
Review 6:The hotel was in an area with quite a few breakfast restaurants within walking distance. We didn't try the hotel's buffet, although we read good review about it. The staff was, friendly but a little reserved, that said it's Mexico and the customs are different that we're used to in the US. We spoke reasonably good Spanish with them and didn't have any problems understanding/being understood. We paid $81 for a king bed for one night, which I felt was reasonable, although I would have been much happier to pay $20 less, then it would have felt like a good deal and I would have rated everything higher due to the better value. Probably won't stay there again, but not for any bad reasons.
Review 7:We decided to try their restaurant - Sunday Buffet as it included juice & coffee. There was no fresh juices served. :( Food was okay but not authentic
Review 8:Clean; staff is great
Review 9:Dirty, smelly,cockroaches everywhere. I didn't expect much but this place was unacceptable. They also photocopied my ID for no apparent reason even though I had already booked online.
Review 10:Nothing
Review 11:Front desk had a very poor attitude. Misled us as to the type of room. did not complied as promised. No room amenities: coffee pot, ironing board, etc. I also just found out that they over charged my Credit Card.
Review 12:Good Location. Parking and service of attendants
Review 13:The hotel had really friendly service, the location was right in the middle of things to do. But the street that it's on is really quiet aswell. The restaurant is really good and very affordable especially the buffet prices.

Review 17:The price, the underground parking, the location; the cleanliness; the bed
Review 18:The towels were old!
Review 19:walk 15 minutes to Cultural Center and it costs $6 to get from hotel to the border by taxi. The facility looks nice and clean. The staff was helpful.
Review 20:I guess the housekeeping supervisor when to my room to check it but it was I think between 4 and 5 pm and I was relaxing when she went to my room, I think she should check the rooms as soon as the housekeeper finish the room.
Review 21:Got an automated wake up call early - no idea why, and I wasn't happy. 30 minutes later the staff knocked on the door, despite the Do Not Disturb sign. Very unhappy. Also, loud jackhammering until about 11:00am.

Security is also great!!! I love this place! They have a bar that looks great but have never been there!!
Review 27:pillows were very hard. wifi would only work if i stayed at the table. loud buzzing noise in the bathroom, can only assume it was the electricity for the room.
Review 28:staff was great. bathroom was clean and shower was excellent. the buffet looked ans smelled excellent. Too bad we couldn't try it. We were too late and didn't stay for the afternoon. But I can say that it must be really good because the room was always full of customers.
Review 29:Walls lack insulation from most noise, and towels are very low quality (not soft). First floor room by the elevator = bad location for noise and privacy.
Review 30:Great location, nice looking building. Night attendant Faustino es muy amable y muy buena onda.
Review 31:To noisy- I think the guest on the other room were having a party... couldn't sleep at all- I like staying at hotel cause is quiet and its in a great location.
Review 32:Great location- I like everything Ive been staying in this hotel for years.
Review 33:Elevator is very slow, it's easier to take the stair. I didn't like the neon lights at the bar makes the place feel cold and unwelcoming.
Review 34:I like the cleanliness of the hotel, the comfort of the bed, parking on premises at no extra charge and centrally located but if you choose no to drive there are taxis across the street that will take you anywhere you want to go and with a phone call will come and pick you up as well. Easy access to the San Ysidro border. Great margaritas.
