The house was nice for what we needed. Not much area to lounge if that’s important. The biggest concern we had was the neighborhood. There were people walking and yelling, approaching us at night and very early in the morning.

The house is lovely. It truly has early 20th century charm. The large windows, brick columns, cute walkway, iron fence, and architectural details of the home were all adorable. The hosts responded right away to any questions we had and offered great recommendations for places to visit and eat. Over-all we had a great time. The only downside was the neighborhood. It isn’t quite as deep into the King William district as we were hoping, and didn’t feel as secure as we liked.

Historic Gem Close to Riverwalk

This house gave us nostalgic feelings - because it had the historical charm of houses we grew up in/experienced. The house has been updated for a current-day comfortable stay while keeping the historical integrity of the house intact. We did initially have some question about the location of the house; however, we (women) felt comfortable and safe.One previous guest/reviewer commented that he heard trains all night. We did hear trains on occasion, but it was not disruptive and did not interrupt our sleep.The location was great - close to shopping, the River Walk, and a grocery store.The proprietors could not have been more responsive and engaging.

Wonderful host and house

We had a wonderful stay at this VRBO! The host was absolutely amazing. She gave us great ideas of things to do with our young kids and made us feel at home. We loved the house! It’s updated nicely and is cozy. Highly recommend staying here. Centrally located so you can be to all the great tourists sites within 10-15 minute drive and some you can even walk too.

Property was very charming and clean! Each room was decorated with beautiful furniture and comfortable beds. The host was very accommodating to our needs and did a great job communicating all of the details as well as answering all of our questions. The location was great!

Wonderful Home Away From Home

My mom and I booked this for our girls trip to San Antonio. House was beautiful with its historic charm, open concept, and very clean. Very accessible to all the things we wanted to do. Slept well in comfortable beds and linens. I definitely recommend and would book this home again for a return trip. Thank you for having us!
