Visit to Basilica of San Juan

We came into town for Memorial Day weekend and had a great experience. The home was very inviting and close to the church. Our host Nellie was very helpful and available if needed. Everything was laid out just as she indicated on her instructions.

Enjoyed our stay

This was a great place to stay! It's in a central location, so it was easy to get to places, and the neighborhood was safe. My kids enjoyed walking to the corner snack shack, too. The host was super responsive. We'd book this one again!

Beautiful home away from home!

We enjoyed our stay in this beautiful home! We couldn't have asked for a better host! Everything we needed was provided - shampoo and body wash, towels, bedding, kitchen dishes, dish soap, and even water bottles and snacks on our arrival. Furniture is comfortable. Neighborhood is quiet and close to lots of restaurants. Main Event is less than 5 minutes away. Our teens loved staying here as well!

Great place.

We loved the home. It was perfect for our little family. It was located in a great quiet neighborhood and close to everthing we needed. It was only a few blocks from our familys home so we could ask for anything better. There were a few minor issues we personally had with the home but the host was respective and kind. We are not used to this type of heat in South, Texas but we love the back yard (front and back) and wish we could have enjoyed it.

It's hard to see how this property has received so many 10/10 ratings. This is a 6/10 at best.The host was pleasant and responsive to messages. But the property itself has many issues that made it difficult to fully enjoy.The outside and inside are very dated. This does not show in the pictures. If you're looking for a cozy, updated, welcoming place to stay, unfortunately, this is not it.The property was not very clean. The second bathroom was especially dirty. The cupboards in that room haven't been cleaned in years.There was a musty smell throughout, which is why they leave Febreeze in most of the rooms.The most surprising issue was the stale food left for us. All of the food left in a gift basket for us (chips, popcorn, crackers, soft drinks) were all expired. There were also two containers of coffee in the kitchen cupboard that were both nearly two years past their expiration date. One was caked solid.The master bed (king) was nice and comfortable and the master shower itself was new and very nice.In our opinion, after a five night stay, this property needs a lot of updating and cleaning to be anything like an 8-10/10.
