Unprofessional Hosts and Unsanitary Rental

Upon arrival to my stay, I noticed an unpleasant smell when walking into the place. Once I turned the AC unit on (which had not been on for a while due to how extremely hot and humid it was in the room) the smell got stronger. I decided to take a shower to cool down which led the floors to be a safety concern considering there was no shower curtain or anything to stop the water from spraying onto the floor. There was a mat for right out of the shower but the water sprayed past the mat and caused the tile to be slippery. After the shower I could still smell the odor so I went to the A/C unit and discovered that was where the smell was coming from. I took pictures of the mold-like appearance on the vents and in the unit itself. I informed the hosts that I did not feel comfortable staying there due to health reasons. I did not receive a response until over 24 hours later!! I contacted Vrbo and informed them that I did not even stay at the rental for hardly any of my stay and asked for a refund. THEN the hosted responded after the complaint had been filed and told me they would not be offering a refund. This place is not sanitary and the hosts are not professional at all.

Close to Downtown. Host was responsive. When we checked in the electronic door would not lock. She showed up and had it fixed within the hour. Overall, decent stay for the price.

Very nice room, loved the space and parking area was good. The only issues was no long mirror to view my cute outfit, keeping coffee choice simple like folders would be awesome. The place was convenient to the market square with no traffic issues.

Arrival instructions were clear. The pictures and description of the listing provided by the hosts met my expectations upon arrival. The property is not far from popular areas so it can get it little noisy, that did not bother me at all. I never had any issues and all my needs were met during my stay; I never had a need to contact the host for anything during my stay. If I had to nitpick on something it would be the AC unit is located in the kitchenette area and there is a partial wall separating the sleeping area and kitchenette. The room temperature was comfortable, but a fan might help with additional air flow. This property will be my first choice to stay next time I'm in town. Cheers!

Lovely place for visiting San Antonio and very convenient for exploring the city. We can walk 10-20 minutes and get to the riverwalk area, although I'm sure it's much hotter in the summer (we were here around January). The place is extremely clean, possibly one of the cleanest stays we're been in. Some minor detail that can be improved is perhaps oiling the main entrance door since it's a bit squeaky. They also provide earplugs which are very nice since the neighbors' dogs sometimes bark and you can hear nearby trains at night. Overall, great stay, I would definitely stay hear again if visiting San Antonio in the future.

This was the perfect spot to rest our bones after an amazing Elton John concert at the Alamodome. There’s private parking and you can walk to the dome. Nothing felt better than not having to get into traffic. The place was very clean and stocked with coffee and snacks. There’s a beautifully remodeled bathroom with a bathtub and shower. My only complaint was train noise and a tricky lock. But, I would totally stay here again.

Didn’t complete our stay

We get to our location and the neighborhood was not the best part of town. It said it was walking distance from the Alamo, but I would not have felt safe walking. The AC was not good quality. It was more like a sauna, even turned down as cold as it would get. There was no shower curtain, so no shower could be taken unless we wanted to flood the bathroom. The bed was as hard as pavement. A terrible attempt at sleep. And the snacks wer out of date. We booked two nights and left the morning after our first night.

Great for couples getaway

This the second time we've stayed at this location (didn't leave review 1st time around because I honestly forgot). Just like our first stay, place was super clean, spacious, easy to access, short distance to Alamodome, Riverwalk, etc. This time around, I carelessly forgot one of my airpods. The property owner reach out as soon as they found it. However by the time she reached out we were on our way to next destination. Long story short, communicating with owner back and forth, she was able to ship my airpod!! I would definitely recommend and stay at this property again in the furfure!! I truly appreciate the owner/staff going above and beyond!

Could be nice

Pros -stylish design -snacks provided -comfortable bed Cons - when we arrived the a/c was turned off and it was sweltering in there. We turned the air on and left for several hours. When we came back it was still unbearably hot. I messaged the property contact. After an hour of no reply, we went and bought giant fans. Even with the fans, we were up all night sweating. It did not cool down to a tolerable temperature until 12 hours after we arrived. In the morning, I finally got a reply from the property manager and was shocked at her reply. “You must have froze the unit. We’ll have to move you to another room so the technician can come look at it. If it is broken you will be responsible for replacing it.” The air unit was not frozen. It was just too small to cool down a room allowed to heat up to almost 100 degees. I explained this in my reply message and told her we actually own an HVAC company and know when a unit is frozen. Her only reply was, “good for you owning your own company.” I was so shocked at how defensive she was. She could have offered us more fans or apologized or something but instead threatened us with replacing the a/c unit. We were so put off by her rudeness that we packed up and left that morning to go stay in a hotel. Our travel insurance is reimbursing us for the days we did not stay there. - the tub is great for taking a soak but is difficult to get in and out of. If you have any mobility issues, you will not be able to use the tub/shower. There are no handles or anything to grab onto. The rug is slippery and the tub is surrounded by big rocks you cannot step on. - the tv is in the “kitchen” area and cannot be seen from the bed. If you want to watch tv, you have to sit in the hard plastic chairs. - There were stains on the sheets and the blinds in the bathroom were either dirty or burnt. - There were no cushions on the patio furniture so you couldn’t use it unless you sat on the hard woven plastic. - The kitchen only has a fridge. If you want a microwave or hot plate you have to request it in advance apparently. I only you know it is available by request because I read the other reviews and it came up. If the managers didn’t turn the air off when the unit was unoccupied, installed some railing for the tub, and didn’t get so defensive and rude at any issue, this could be a nice place.

Beautiful little place to stay

We loved this place to stay on our single night stay in San Antonio. We wish we could've stayed longer to check out the city, but we're on a bug road trip across the country. The room was well stocked for anything we could need. Off street parking is a huge plus. The bathroom was amazing. The hosts communicated quickly. The location is great. Minutes drive away from the At&t Arena if you want to see the Spurs play like we did. And it was walking distance from the Alamo. We didn't realize we came during Fiesta. There are a lot of road closures. So being walking distance was perfect. If we ever find ourselves in San Antonio again, we will definitely stay here again.

Could use some changes

We stayed here for our anniversary and loved the central location for ease of access to all places we wanted to go. The suite itself could use some adjustments. You cannot watch the TV from the bed and there were only two very hard kitchen like chairs to sit and watch TV. There is no microwave, however the fridge is nice. The bathroom was nice and we enjoyed the soaking tub, however the floor mats NEED to be non slip because I almost fell getting out of the tub. The suite felt safe and we were comfortable leaving all of our stuff there during our stay. The bed is VERY firm which we liked, but it may not be for everyone. There is not a great shower situation without getting the whole bathroom wet (rainfall into tub or shower wand). It would be nice to have hangers provided and more than 4 towels as there were not enough for daily showers. Overall we give it 3-4 stars because it was a good stay, but there are just things that were weird about it.
