hmm...
yes, but...
travelers are loathe to use public transportation (or any transportation) that doesn't drop them off at their specific hotel. luggage presents a pretty sizeable hurdle both in train capacity and riders willingness to walk 6 blocks with a suitcase (much less a family).
i wouldn't be against the idea, but with san antonio's sizeable downtown hotel network, it might be a tough sell to get people to use it (or to decide where it lets off).
thought?
