The size and layout of the house was good and the house was clean. The kitchen appliances met all our needs. The younger kids really enjoyed the pool. Location was convenient to River Walk and the zoo. The pool table was good for the older kids.

The house is clean, spacious and very well equipped. Everything worked as needed, including grill, hot tub and pool. It was also centrally located for us and easy access to Riverwalk, Airport, Golf courses, Pearl District, etc. Beds were comfortable. Nice common areas and a dining room table. Kitchen was well equipped. Communication with the owner/manager (Sarah) was super quick and easy. Answered all questions; no hiccups at all. Would stay again.

The house next door has three large dogs that bark all day and night. Very hard to get a good nights sleep. I would not recommend this house if you need to be able to get a goodnights rest.

Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication
House is historic and has lots of character and well decorated, close to things in San Antonio. House was clean and host was quick to respond to messages. Pool, hot tub and space were nice. Great for a large group to stay. We would have given 5 stars but had issues with the following: main bath shower did not drain so couldn’t be used, mold around grout so wonder if this isn’t new. Other baths had showers but didn’t get hot water and the shower curtains were too short and blew in on you the whole time touching you and were not new. A/C stopped cooling day 2. Toilet in guest bath tipped forward if sat on. These things made it not feel like luxury as titles and the price point too high for these issues. It would be a lovely home to stay if these things didn’t occur.

The only problem that exists with this property are the 6 very large dogs that live next door. They can be quite noisy but thankfully not at night nor early mornings. This is not a reason not to book this fabulous home. The location is perfect for visiting many sites in San Antonio and great eating places.
