Cute stay in San Antonio!
Although the neighborhood was not very nice, the Vrbo was tucked away from the road as its own gated collection of houses. The host was very friendly and the property's outdoor space was beautiful. The inside was cozy and quirky and perfect for a vacation with friends. Driving to downtown took 15-20 mins and the traffic wasn't horrible. My only complaint was that there were obvious stains on the bedsheets (they could have been clean, but I had this tiny fear that they weren't!). However, don't let this stop you from booking! Definitely a worthwhile stay!

Oasis
We were delighted when we pulled into the gated home. Although we came in February, you could definitely see this is a majestic place. Our host did all she could for us, giving suggestions on places to go and even offering to get us there at one point. We enjoyed our stay and would give Al’s attic a five star.

Wonderful rental
We had a wonderful stay! Loved our cabin, parking felt very safe behind security gate on property plus host lives in the front house. We ride e-bikes and were able to drive 1 mile to the first Mission where we could park and access a trail that took us to other beautiful Missions, the Riverwalk and beautiful scenic paved path rides along the river. We loved meeting Gail, the host and won’t hesitate to stay here again when visiting the San Antinio area.

Gated oasis
While driving through the neighborhood to our stay we questioned the accuracy of the listing. We breathed a sigh of relief as we pulled up to the gorgeous and securely gated destination. It was just as cute as the pictures. I loved all of the extras like lotion, cotton balls and face mask provided in the bathroom; however, the toilet paper on some really cool holders was positioned behind the toilet and was very hard to reach. Also, for anyone wanting total bathroom privacy, be aware that it’s located right by the bed and the door is a sliding barn door type that has significant spaces all around it and does not lock. The heater/ air conditioner above the bed had a rattling noise. The main bed was amazingly comfortable and the sheets were glorious. Our host also gave us an excellent recommendation for dinner.

Perfect spot for our little getaway
Adorable property and conveniently located near downtown San Antonio. The gate made us feel safe and Al’s attic was so cute and comfortable! Our only complaint would be the noise as there were what sounded like fireworks and drag racing several nights. Overall we enjoyed our stay and would visit again!

Beautiful Property
We enjoyed our stay, the only issue was that the person staying in the loft had to enter the master bedroom to use the restroom and the loft looks down directly onto the bed in the master bedroom.

Our stay at Al’s garage, for our 42nd Anniversary, was very nice. Gail was quite helpful in telling us the best places to go. San Antonio is beautiful to visit as well as the surrounding cities.

A week at Al's Auto Attic
Al's Auto Attic is an adorable cozy place that met our needs perfectly. It is decorated with an automobile theme that we all really liked. The beds were very comfortable and the water pressure and temperature were awesome!! Gail was very friendly and check in and check out were very easy. Our porch overlooked the pretty courtyard which was relaxing. The location was great for all the things we wanted to do. I would definitely recommend this property and will stay again when i come back to San Antonio

Cozy loft
This was exactly what i was looking for. We had a great stay experience. It was very private, and cozy. Everything we needed was within driving or walking distance of the property. I felt recharged after the stay. Definitely would stay here again, as it is stress free from beginning to end.

Design Meets Hospitality!
A VRBO stay enables you to "live like a local" when visiting some place new. We certainly felt this staying at Al's Auto Attic. Charming, unique, cozy, comfortable are just a few words that come to mind when describing this San Antonio treasure. Conveniently located to Missions National Park (blocks away) and The Riverwalk, we felt San Antonio was at our doorstep We loved overlooking the yard as we sat on the porch with a cup of coffee or a glass of wine. Pecan Grove Estates is a treasure and features many personal touches. We can't imagine staying anywhere else in San Antonio!

Wonderful stay!
The Al’s Auto Attic was truly such a wonderful stay! it was completely gated which made us feel very safe. There were plenty of great restaurants and things to do around the area. It wasn’t too far from downtown but far enough to feel safe. Everything was perfectly decorated and we will definitely be returning. Thanks again!
