Excellent Property and Easy Check-In

Top notch property and owners are top notch as well- it is obvious they take pride in their property! Everything was just as it said. Extremely clean and so easy to book and check-in and check-out. The best communication from a property owner than we have ever encountered. We will stay again when we are in the area.

The Pearl, Riverwalk and More

A well appointed and comfortable house with super communicative and helpful hosts. Our group is the sort that likes to park the car and rely on our feet to explore. This house is in a great location to walk to the Pearl and Riverwalk ( about 15-20 minutes on foot). But right in the neighborhood along St Mary's are two restaurants featuring James Beard finalists. Don't miss Cullum's Attaboy for an exquisite brunch in a relaxed vintage setting especially if you love Champagne and fish roe. One word of warning (nothing to do with this property): apparently San Antonio does not place a premium on pedestrians. If you like to walk, be prepared for sidewalks that are uneven, crumbling in places, and frequently turned into obstacle courses by ill-placed utility infrastructure.

Perfect Stay for a Family of 5

This house was perfect for our mini spring break stay. It’s located on a quiet street with almost no traffic, with easy access to Pearl, downtown, the zoo, HEB and ~20 minutes to seaworld. The neighborhood is in transition with some homes new and/or updated (like this one), and others needing some love. However, we felt extremely safe and let our kids play in the yard as they liked. Kathy was immediately responsive to a couple of questions I had, and checked in with me to make sure our stay was going well. The house is well stocked and the beds are comfortable. We had everything we needed. Thanks for a great stay!

Updated house but neighborhood old

The house itself is nice and has been updated inside and out but the neighborhood is old and I would say questionable at times. Some houses in the area are falling apart. We liked how close we were to everything such as the Alamo and Riverwalk but did not feel comfortable walking around in the neighborhood or letting our kids play in the backyard. The first bathroom had lots of little black bugs in the tub that we had to kill the first night and the shower in the master bathroom didn't seem clean and had little black specks of something in it. Anytime anyone showered or even flushed a toilet a pipe would rattle loud in the wall by the refrigerator in the kitchen. The owner was kind and very responsive to our messages. It is nice the house is updated and close to everything but with all these things above combined it just wasn't our favorite stay.

Nice Relaxing Stay

This property was in a good location close to everything we wanted to do. It was exactly as pictured on the website, no surprises. Except that maybe it was a little larger than I expected. I visited with my daughter and her two sons and the layout of the house and the three bedrooms were perfect for us. The house was very clean with lots of supplies. The phone chargers on all the side tables were an extra convenience. I never took out my charger I brought from home. The neighborhood was quiet at night, but close to several very good local, eating establishments. We loved the beignet place and the burger and Mexican food place. Everything worked properly and the kids enjoyed the yard to run around in and also the games that were provided. I appreciated the small desk in the largest bedroom for putting on my make up. I can't wait to bring my husband here the next time we are in San Antonio.

Cute little house

This is a cute little house in the Tobin hill area. Property was updated, clean, and well stocked. The location was very convenient to many of the main attractions in San Antonio. While the house was great, the neighborhood it self was a little run down. It was close to a little bar district so there was some noise from that, but overall a good little place especially if you want to be more in the action!
