The Casita is in the heart of Tobin Hill Historic Neighborhood. The trendy Pearl Complex is only a 1/2-mile walk. Our charming casita has been restored with modern comforts, such as brand new AC/heat, new appliances, and fixtures, while keeping the unique historic features of the house, such as the original wood floors, original bathroom and kitchen tile, the retro built-in hallway ironing board, and the art-deco 91-year old doors and knobs!

Casa Fiesta had plenty of space to relax and get a little work done while visiting San Antonio. The house was very clean, the decor was charming and the beds comfortable. The kitchen is very well stocked. The house is within a 15 minute walk of The Pearl which we frequented daily, our favorites were Best Quality Daughter and Licks ice cream.
