Check-in was very easy with instructions provided by the host. Everything was very clear, and we were able to get into the room without any problems. The room was cute, very tidy and clean. There were thoughtful touches such as spare toothbrushes, laundry soap, and a coffee station. Although the room has great A/C and a ceiling fan, they also included a portable fan, which came in handy for more direct airflow and the white noise of a fan. There was a first aid kit in the room and a handy board with all the door codes so we wouldn’t forget them. Very few negatives, and they can’t really be helped. I’m not fond of street parking, but I didn’t experience any problems with it here. The other minor thing is there’s a dip in the floor between the living room and kitchen—it’s an older building, so it’s to be expected. It was quiet in the room, and I slept very well. Overall, it was a very pleasant stay.

Quiet and Convenient Location

This cozy little studio was very quiet and reasonably priced, and it's located in a lovely neighborhood that is conveniently located to the Riverwalk, the Alamo, etc. The check-in process was easy, and the hosts were very responsive to questions. While we didn't need it, it was nice to know that we had access to the laundry area as well.

Excellent Stay for couples

The property is great and close by to many different opportunities in downtown san antonio. Despite some slight confusion with entering the property, the host was gracious and helped walk us along what we were doing incorrectly. The apartment is small but well organized, the kitchen comes fully stocked with utensils, cookware and some supplies.

San Antonio

Loved where we stayed! The room was very clean and comfortable! We had a little trouble getting in (but totally our fault) called our host and they came over within 5 minutes to help us get in. Highly recommended booking this unit. We chose to walk to the attractions and take a Uber back. The cost of an Uber one way is cheaper than paying to park.

Small but great

This property was in a great location easily walkable to lots of food and bars. It was very clean and the description matched what I expected. I gave the rating a 4 only because the bathroom water pressure was very poor and the hot water heater needed turned up. The shower didn’t get very hot at all. Otherwise it’s a very quiet nice condo to stay in.

Overall pretty good

Overall it was fine. Clean, quiet and cute. The heater didn't seem to work super well, and the temperature outside dipped pretty low overnight! So we were really chilly when we woke up. The heat doesn't reach the bathroom too much, so it was very cold in there! We really were looking forward to some warm coffee in the morning. The coffee maker maybe needs to be de-scaled? It wasn't drinkable. There were flakes coming out when the coffee brewed and floating around in our cups. We took a walk to get some coffee, but the places listed online weren't there anymore.

Nostalgia

Very comfortable. I cleaned the shower floor on second use. Originally felt slick from soap film. Fine after that. I didn’t drink any of the water (bottled). Unknown if use was an additional fee. The apt was very cute and functional. The building was very nostalgic. Excellent neighborhood. Easy walk to downtown via Riverwalk.
