I would stay here again, without pause.
The property is very well kept and the hosts are very kind and accommodating.The neighborhood is in transition. Very eclectic. There are homes that range from brand new construction, to in the process of total renovation, to homes that are well lived in. I have stayed in this neighborhood three times so far, and would have no problem staying there again.The hosts are very nice people and very communicative. Unfortunately, we missed meeting in person.The property is described well. It is a single room, clean, well furnished and comfortable. It seems relatively new.I recommend staying here if the property fits your needs.

Cute little cottage. A little tight inside with a large mattress-beanbag thing. Just perfect enough for a quick getaway from New Braunfels. Very clean. Perfect spot for everything downtown. Would stay again if pool was cleaner.

peaceful, bird song
From the moment of our arrival, the care with which our host had taken to prepare an oasis for a weary traveler was immediately obvious. Tastefully appointed in rustic "ol' San Antonio" style, the "casita" (as she referred to the space) has all the ambiance an ideal, singularly private, artist studio. Cindi is an extraordinarily warm and gracious host, and we feel very fortunate to have been her guests.

Location is perfect for walking to King William neighborhood or riverwalk attractions. We parked our truck on the street and never worried about it. Absolutely peaceful and quiet! Guesthouse had everything we needed and is decorated beautifully. Host responded quickly to all our questions! We had a wonderful stay!

Great stay in San Antonio
The guest cottage was amazing! It was clean and comfortable. Perfect size for the 2 of us. Bed was comfortable (loved the linen sheets!). I was able to sit outside with my laptop and attend a call. We sat out by the dipping pool one evening but most of the time we were exploring San Antonio. The guesthouse is in a quaint older neighborhood We arrived on Sunday evening and did not use our car until Wednesday when we drove to the Missions. Walked to the Riverwalk, the Alamo and the Tower of the Americas. Also so many great places to eat nearby. Cindi was a great host. She greeted us when we arrived and was available via text. Even though we were in her backyard we had privacy. Highly recommend!

Wonderful Stay!
The casita is a great place to stay when visiting San Antonio! It’s a close location to the Riverwalk and to so many wonderful restaurants. Very cute, eclectic decorating, as well as every little detail thought of to make this place so charming and comfortable! The dipping pool was perfect, especially as we were there during some record high temps. We loved every minute and had a fantastic time celebrating our anniversary! Thank so much, Cindie!

Quick trip to San Antonio
We loved our stay at this property! Everything we wanted to see and do—the River Walk, the Alamo, good restaurants, etc—was in walking distance. The pool was essential and helped us relax after spending time in the heat. The accommodations inside were great, and everything was clean and comfortable. Our only regret was that we couldn’t stay longer!
