We had seven adults/teenagers and the layout worked well. Nice older home in a good neighborhood. Great location for walking to coffee shops and less than 15 minute drive to Pearl Markets, Zoo, and Riverwalk. And, good access to Bandera, Greune and Boerne. The pool is not heated so it would be great during hotter weather. The host is very responsive to questions.

Beautiful House!

Spent a week in San Antonio with some family, and this turned out to be a wonderful place for us to stay. The house was beautiful, as good as the pictures, if not even better. The location was also great. There were lots of coffee shops and other places we could walk to, and the things we wanted to do around town, like visit the Riverwalk and the Pearl, were only a short drive away.
