Scott
In town for a business convention and all the hotels were sold out or overpriced and I needed a place close to the convention center. Safe location, clean, nice decor, comfortable beds and fair price !! Will stay here again on my next trip to San Antonio.

Madeline
One of the best Airbnb's I've stayed in. Comfortable beds with upgraded linens, nice master and guest shower with great water pressure + quality soap options. Kitchen was updated and had a variety of awesome appliances. Washer/dryer were clean and like new, easy to use. Fridge/ freezer were completely empty for our use. Quiet backyard we would've definitely used if it had been a little warmer outside. I would stay here again and recommend highly to friends travelling to San Antonio. Todd was an incredible host and was extremely responsive and was key in a successful, fun weekend in town.

Heather
This house was super cozy and comfy! My friends and I had a blast staying there and actually didn’t even want to leave the house that often because we enjoyed the backyard so much. Great place and great location!

Jennifer
Todd's place was so adorable! We loved staying there and everything was very stylish. The beds were amazing and the first night I couldn't get fan to work. Todd stopped by and found the fan remote was in a drawer and that's all it was (I should have thought of that!) He was quick to respond and quick to solve a problem. Would definitely recommend. Close walking distance to conference center.

Amy- The neighborhood is really nice! The house was perfect and has a lot of character. The house was furnished with towels, dishes, plenty of blankets, games and so much more!! The home was very clean! They have a binder in the home with local eateries as well as places to sight see. I really loved the neighborhood! There are many local places to eat around the area. We ate at Rosario's as well as Taco Haven on our way out. My family and I will definitely go through Todd next time we are down in San Antonio. This was my first time using airbnb and it was a great experience!!!

Rosa- Todd's place is super convenient and close to so many places downtown! He was very quick to respond to my questions and was very flexible with everything. The home was super cozy and the decor was beautiful! Thank you Todd for making my stay very enjoyable!

Bill- My friends and I wanted a place to stay close to downtown so we could attend the rodeo and have a night out. The house was perfect for this. We were able to walk to dinner, take a cheap Uber to the rodeo and walk home from the Riverwalk after we went out. The house was clean and had everything we needed. Thanks and we will be back.

Danielle- This was our first experience at a B&B. We were looking for a location that was close to downtown. And let me tell you everything was perfect. The check in process was so easy everything was literally there for us. The has had everything! I would book here again. And the owners were available for any questions I had ..... Everyone loved the house! Thanks!" Eve

Summary: Great, communicative hosts. Very nice people. Met them when we arrived because we got there early. House is darling and clean. Close to downtown area. Walkable. Not easy to sleep after 8am. Close to a very busy train crossing and neighbors with ‘barky’ dogs. Nice stay. Thank you!
