Fabulous and near everything
It was clean and comfortable as advertised. It was close to Riverwalk, the Alamo, the airport, etc. We could drive everywhere in less than 20 minutes. The host was super responsive to any requests, telling me the location of grocery stores, etc. within minutes. I would recommend this house if you have a large group attending a special downtown event or just looking for an affordable, quiet place to see San Antonio

This house was super close to the riverwalk, etc. since we were coming for Fiesta! House was exactly as described and we appreciated the locked gate to be able to park behind instead of the street. We had a great stay!

Great Location!
Everything was as described in the listing. The neighborhood is transitioning, but we all felt safe and it was close to downtown. It was very easy to Uber everywhere we wanted to go. The house is older and has been updated, but expect creaky floors. The host was wonderful and communication was excellent! I would stay here again.

Short trip to Texas
We had a good stay. Kept very busy and did as much as we could do in 4 days. We cooked on night and struggled just a little with having enough serving bowls, but we made do. The only other thing that could have been better was being aware of the fact that I would hear trains at night. I'm a lite sleeper, not really sure if anyone else heard them. The house did have an ear plug box but none were in the box. The house was as advertised.
We checked out as much as we could, Alamo, Riverwalk, Craft/Farmer's Market, Did hiking at parks, Russian Tea Garden, and the Historic Market Square. Pretty if we had another day we could of filled it with multiple other things. Whatever we did it never seemed like we were more than 15 to 20 minute drive back to the house. Would consider staying there again for a future trip.

San Antonio Get-a-way
This is a great and affordable place to stay! The house had plenty of room for our group of 6 (and could have comfortably hosted more). The kitchen is well stocked and the living room space was great to hangout in. It’s in a safe neighborhood, and a short Lyft ride from the downtown (not walkable due to many road changes and highways). I would recommend staying here, the host was easy to communicate with as well.
Clean, comfortable & accommodating...secure & well- kept. Close to Alamo Brewing company & the AT&T Center. Very close to downtown & the attractions. Owners were very nice.

Great but could use a little more
My group, of 8 adults, enjoyed the stay at this house. The house was very nice and had plenty of comfortable beds for us. It has warm/cool temperatures whichever you need. We had plenty of privacy parking in the back. There is like a driveway in the back and all 4 of our cars fit on it with no problem. The only things I would suggest the next person taking or the owner adding is a fold out table & chairs since there wasn't enough room for us to sit at a table to eat and it was raining outside so couldn't sit out there. The other things was maybe having more kitchen towels to be able to dry our hands and maybe a few more cookie sheets, middle size pot, etc.

Space as described. No complaints about beds. Water pressure, AC, etc worked well. Neighborhood modest economically, quiet, bit with may properties showing recent improvement. Close to downtown. Simple grill and patio table in the back.

Great house, great stay!
We had a great stay, The house was clean and spacious, we loved the kitchen, really big and stocked well. there is even a bbq pit and utensils to bbq with. all the bedrooms are very big, comfy beds, with extra linens, bathrooms are great as well with plenty of toilet paper and everything you will need, even a hair straightener. we loved that we were able to put our cars inside the gate for more safety. the back patio/deck area is great for hanging out and socializing. We will definitely come back and stay here again.
