San Antonio is a fun city in Texas. Unfortunately, we only spent two nights and a full day there so I don’t have much to report as far as basic info. I’m looking forward to going back one day to see more.
Getting There
We drove to San Antonio from San Angelo, making a couple stops along the way. If you’re flying, San Antonio International Airport has flights from most major US cities as well as a few from Mexico.
La Quinta Inn
For our hotel, we stayed on the west side of the city at the La Quinta Inn San Antonio Vance Jackson. It wasn’t anything special. Staff was fine, the hotel was clean, and the location wasn’t too bad. It did the job.
Rio Rio Cantina (Permanently Closed)
For lunch, I visited Rio Rio Cantina along the River Walk in downtown San Antonio. As far as Tex-Mex food, it wasn’t that great. I did, however, enjoy the beautiful setting along the river.
Texas Roadhouse
For dinner, I’m ashamed to say we visited a Texas Roadhouse near the hotel. This wasn’t my idea at all. Martin had a friend from England who had been living in San Antonio for a few years. I would have preferred something more unique and local rather than a steakhouse chain. Anyway, the meal was fine but the service wasn’t that great.
