The staff is incredible. Super helpful, and constantly trying to add to the experience of staying there. The room was much bigger and nicer than expected, my wife and I were blown away at the value. We recommend the garden suites. We saw so many birds right in the backyard.

The Alamo Inn and especially Eric gave me everything I needed for a wonderful few days of birding. Thank you so much Eric and Keith for the accommodations.
