It was just minutes from downtown and the airport, which made getting around super convenient. The house itself was updated, very clean, and thoughtfully stocked with all the essentials.

This location is great only 10 min to the airport and 10 min to downtown area. Foodies will delight in eating at La Fonda, Pesto close by, and Ida Clare and park in the Mexican City Market to visit a really great market..the 2nd biggest in the country. Get an on off bus pass that is good for 2 days..very convenient to all the sites to see in town. The home is very clean with all needs met. The host is very good with quick responses to our needs and the home is very comfortable and surprisingly quiet. We would recommend this spot and would stay again.

We had such a wonderful spring break stay in San Antonio! The home was in a perfect central location, making it easy to get everywhere we wanted to go. It was so cute, clean, and thoughtfully furnished with everything we needed for a comfortable stay.We loved being able to make breakfast each morning and even used the BBQ grill one night, which was such a fun bonus. The backyard was one of our favorite spots—plenty of space to relax, hang out, and let our dog run around.The host was incredibly friendly and attentive, even checking in on us during our stay, which we really appreciated. Traveling with two daughters and their friends (plus our dog!) can be a lot, but this home made everything easy and enjoyable. We would absolutely stay here again!

The house was very attractive, comfortable, and well laid out for our family of four adults. Good location for accessing all areas of San Antonio. The main issue we had was the floors were very dirty. We told the host immediately, but they only addressed it after we left.

Any feedback is always welcome to help us improve. The floor was clean, but the rug in the dining room needed to be steam cleaned, which is why we waited until you left.
