It was a very comfortable house in a quiet neighborhood. The location was just amazing. I looked up historic homes in the neighborhood and walked to a few and drove to others. It was really enjoyable. We sat outside a few times. Some of the outdoor furniture had seen better days but nothing we couldn't handle. The house had a ton of puzzles to pick from and beds were very comfortable. We would definitely stay there again when we come to town.

The entire process—from booking to departure—was smooth and hassle-free. The home was spacious and well-equipped with everything needed for a comfortable stay away from home. It’s conveniently located in the heart of downtown San Antonio, close to many attractions. Overall, we highly recommend this place and will definitely book again when we return to the area.
