Every year, two friends and I take a trip somewhere in the country to enjoy the local sights, food, and craft beer scene. This year, we chose San Antonio as one of our destinations. We stayed at this property from July 28 - August 3, and we could not have been happier with our accommodations!
The house was in a quiet neighborhood near The Quarry, a large shopping/dining destination. The house was very clean. The beds were comfortable, and the kitchen was great! We made breakfast each morning, and there were plenty of pots, pans, utensils, and dishes available. The refrigerator was large and allowed us to easily store any food we bought or brought home from local eateries. While the kitchen had no dishwasher, hand washing the few dishes we dirtied was quick and easy.
I cannot stress how great the location of this property is. We were a few minutes away from Trader Joe’s, Whole Foods, and an H-E-B. Better yet, we were no more than 15 minutes away from anything in the city: downtown/River Walk...7-10 minutes; the missions...15 minutes; The Quarry...5 minutes; the zoo and the botanical gardens...10 minutes; Pearl...10 minutes. We were close enough to everything that we wanted to see, yet we were far enough removed from the tourist areas to find peace at the end of the day.
Finally, Jes (the property owner) was wonderful! She was very quick to respond to any question I had, and she made sure that we had everything that we needed. She was always kind and helpful, giving us tips when asked. She cared, and these days, that kind of personal attention is hard to find. If you find yourself lucky enough to be traveling to this beautiful city, select this property for your stay. You’ll be glad you did!
