San Antonio Experience
This was a very nice property in a quiet neighborhood and within easy access to San Antonio tourist spots. I would definitely stay at this property again. There were some things that need to be corrected: coffee pot does not work correctly as it was never able to fill the pot after an hour of slowly dripping; battery needs to be replaced in wall clock; two slots on toaster don’t work; never could figure out how to set up ironing board (are some pieces missing on the board?); volume and fast forward on tv remote are non existent; drain is clogged in downstairs shower; WiFi password was not included in Welcome notebook. These were minor inconveniences but the property was still a lovely place to visit.

This property was comfortable and clean. We had all the accommodations that our family needed. I feel that the price point was great. Daniel our host had great communication and when he was out of pocket he even reached out to let us know who we could contact if we had a issue. We would definitely stay there again .

Christmas for 10
We agreed to host Christmas for the family this year, since their homes had suffered frostbite to their water pipes. We brought a folding 6-foot table, a tree and all of the tableware to make a feast in our VRBO home. It was a great success.

Very Comfortable Place to Stay :)
It was so nice to have a comfortable place to stay during our Thanksgiving Holiday. We used all three of the rooms and everyone said that their bed was really comfortable. Though the neighborhood is older, there was a nice area in the back for the dogs to be off leash and it was convenient to a Central Market grocery store and to major streets. It was really nice to have 2 full bathrooms and a usable kitchen! The lock system worked great and we felt like everything was safe :) We hope to stay here again on our next visit to San Antonio. Thanks So Much

Expected Better
For starters, I made several attempts to reach the owner prior to our arrival. I tried getting check in instructions 2-3 days prior, but was told we could only get them on our arrival date. On our arrival date, no email came in so when I called around noon, I finally received them. We felt the listing overrepresented the actual unit. Furnishings were a bit dated. At least one mattress needs to be replaced.

Excellent Choice - Loved It
Daniel was very responsive and courteous. The condo was clean and well supplied, never saw as much as a single gnat in the unit. The neighborhood is a quiet, well established, prime area. The neighbors were all very friendly and helpful. This is a great area of San Antonio, no issues at all. Maintenance kept the property attended to at all times. Plenty of families live on this street; while there were a few pets running free they were very friendly and happy animals. I recommend staying here and I won’t hesitate to rent this place again.

Clean older unit
The floors and bathrooms were really clean, but the stairs and walkways were covered with bird droppings and broken eggs. The unit definitely shows its age and the furniture is old as well. We were good until the tv didn’t work, the roach showed up and the instructions for the Wi-Fi were wrong. You get what you pay for

Close to everything.
We enjoyed our stay and the apartment was nice. Problem getting into the apartment because owner did not give us the apartment number or the code for the door lock. Had to contact him to get the information. It didn't take long but could have been a disaster if we had arrived late at night instead of the middle of the afternoon.

Good location with lots of room
The location was great for us- we weren’t planning to spend all of our time downtown. Easy access to some of the activities on the edge of town and to the river walk. The neighborhood was mainly other apartments. We had no issues or concerns regarding safety. My son LOVED the arcade game in his room. He thought it was the coolest thing ever. Pictures are accurate. Lots of living and kitchen space. We didn’t cook, but the kitchen seemed outfitted well. Only a few downsides- the upstairs neighbors were loud until about midnight each night. Just walking and sliding chairs and things. They were quiet during the day. The master could use a new mattress. It has a dip in the center and my husband and I kept rolling towards the middle into each other. It would be cool if they added a roku to the TV, though there are a few apps available on the TV to watch. A second tv in the master would be nice too, though we were gone most of the time so it wasn’t a big deal. Overall it was a good stay and met our needs well.

Setting expectations.
First, Daniel and his staff were great. They checked in with us when we arrived and let us know when they would be unavailable if something came up. With that being said, this is my fare review on rental, area, etc. -Rental: Good shape (not quite the quality you see in the photos), Beds slept well, air/heat worked well, washer and dryer in unit, shower had great water pressure and plenty of hot water. The living room furniture is due for an upgrade or good cleaning. The code entry is nice, but there's no way to security the location with a key lock when leaving, so anyone who may know the codes (owners included), could enter at will when you're gone. The worse part (not in Daniels control) is the ceiling is very thin, so you will hear ever step the above tenants make and if they drag chairs, you will think their about to come through the ceiling. -Location: Convenient, but the neighborhood is starting to make great renovations around these apartments, but have not made it to this street yet. We never had any issues with anyone while onsite, but the area may make certain renters feel uneasy. -Like I said, Daniel is great and most of the above isn't in his control, so for the cost and if you're comfortable with the few things we had issues with, i would recommend the unit. Thank you!

Review of apartment rental
It was overall a nice stay. Unfortunately there was a few minor things that we’re kinda not pleasant about. 1. The lighting in the back bedroom with the bunk beds were HORRIBLE. Literally had to use the flashlight on our phone to see anything in there and it drove me insane. Same thing with the living area, the light was very dark and it just bothered us a bit. Also, we found 2 live cockroaches in the master suite, one being inside a dry folded towel in the bathroom🥴 not a big deal, but I’m very scared of bugs😅 it also isn’t the best neighborhood in the world, we talked to the neighbors beside the apartment and they weren’t very friendly and everyone gave weird vibes lol. But the apartment itself was very clean and had everything we needed for our stay!😊

Transitioning neighborhood, but still decent
The neighborhood is in process of transitioning and it hasn't quite reached those streets, but I didn't have any complaints other than this wasn't clearly indicated in previous reviews or by the owner. I don't know if it would have impacted my choice, but it was a consideration as I was traveling alone-ish. But I also don't go sightseeing in transitioning neighborhoods because duh. Moving on... The neighbors above me were no more loud than what I expected that I would be if upstairs. They also came down and told me to let them know if it was too loud. Other neighbors let me know my groceries were left out by an inconsiderate instacart delivery person. The aesthetics are bad neighborhood but I didn't have any bad experiences and I was there a week. My minor issues were not addressed with the owner, because I didn't want to be a snobby brat. Also, if you wanted a hotel experience then get a hotel room. However, here is the info for future renters. Only TV is in living room, but the blinds in the living room don't allow you to feel completely comfortable. I think curtains would help. There are keys but I didn't get a clear code to get the key so I used door code every time. It loudly announced door unlocked with bright green illumination, at least in my safety conscious city girl head. Not a big deal but it is not best to have a "look I'm new in town" bullseye like that. Also the door doesn't feel locked and secure from the inside. It needs more of a secure locking mechanism for this traveler's piece of mind. The apartment # is given with the address, but I also knew to look for it, so not sure on other person's experiences. Some of the most well used furniture I've ever had including my poor and broke college days. The top of washer dryer unit area wall and ceiling had a lot of accumulated dust. The bathroom sink handles/faucets were also just dirty. Not a huge issue but overlooked by cleaning team. The backyard is not accessible from individual units. You enter through side gate to get to the back area and dumpster for trash, not a big deal but something to know. It isn't eliminated from my list to use again, but not near the top with those minor issues especially for cost comparison of other properties. It is super close to a lot of key San Antonio places and the owner gives you discount options at them. You also get the option of housekeeping during your stay which is nice if they just cleaned a bit better.
