OK, I admit, my review of this Jamba Juice is tempered by the fact that I love Jamba Juice!  I have been to Jamba's all across the country (fav is Times Sq location!)  This one in San Antonio is a good one.  The staff is always friendly.  I like the location in Alamo Heights... I have had meetings there and, other than the noise of the blender, it works great.

There is outside seating and the drinks are always perfect.  You can't go wrong with this (or any!) Jamba Juice.

This is my favorite place to stay in NYC!  Over the years, I have stayed here a lot... The area is alive but you are also far enough off Times Sq. that the noise is not a problem.  This hotel has excellent security since the lobby is on the second floor.  I love the rooms, not big (nothing is in NYC!) but well appointed.  I like to stay as high up as possible to see the view.

Nearby are lots of restaurants, Starbucks, Jamba Juice and local bars.  There is nothing that is too far to walk and the subway station is right around the corner.  Of course, so is Times Sq with all the 'interesting' activities to watch!

Shula's restaurant is in the hotel and it is exceptional.  The only thing I don't like about this hotel is that there used to be a Ben and Jerry's across the street but it closed :(

If you can swing it, for business or pleasure, I highly recommend the Westin... I always enjoy my time there.

When in Austin sometimes I stay at the Intercontinental Hotel (awesome balcony!).  The other nice about that is it is connected to the Roaring Fork.  I've been here several times over the years and enjoyed each visit.

The food is excellent and well prepared.  It's not expensive for a nice place and interesting decor.  I enjoy sitting by the window and people watching.

This is the best overall Starbucks in SA, in my humble opinion.  Covered outdoor seating, very friendly staff and enough plugs and indoor seats to not feel crowded.  Conveniently located and has a drive in... what more could you ask for?
