Lots of room, and great location
The layout of the house was great for our family. It was about a 20 min walk to the riverwalk, and great restaurants near by. The backyard had great seating area and was welcoming.

Good Location
The property was great for our large family. Clean and laid out well. Our only negative was the lack of amenities: no tissues, no dish towels, no ice. The toilet paper and the paper towels were cheap and coarse. Otherwise, fabulous find!

Ok
The house it's self is nice and big enouh to accommodateour big party. The cleaning was minimal, the beds were so uncomfortable to sleep in. There was no sope or barley sope in the kitchen and top bathrooms. One of use put the hand behind the couch to rest it and found a dirty old dusty hat which showed how unclean the house really was. While leaving we stripped the sheets as asked and realized there was blood and dirty sheets so that was gross knowing we were sleeping on dirty shots for the past 4 nights. Location driving wise was grear. Wouldn't be able to walk to downtown since there are no street lights. Overall wouldn't come back to this house.

Really Disappointed
The house us really comfortable but it was dirty and the sheets on the beds were not clean. The patio was dirty and unorganized. Some one came and arranged it while we were there. The balcony furniture was so dirty and dusty we could not enjoy it. The taking showers, the drainage smell so strong like sewerage. We were really dissatisfied. I was not allowed to do a cancelation even when airlines cancelled most of my families flights. I still had to go to the hiuse and I was still charged for all of them. Bad business!

Holiday Stay
We stayed here for the Christmas holiday. The house had nice, open space for ten of us to spread out. Although it's a historic house, the rooms and bathrooms are updated. A few things kept this from being 5 stars. Firstly, what the previous reviews said about the mattresses are true. The soft foam toppers or mattresses themselves need to be replaced. Worst of all is the master bedroom which leaves a permanent dent in the topper and back pain for the sleepers. Secondly, for the house to sleep so many it's lacking supplies. We barely had enough towels and they were a bit dingy. There were some basic kitchen supplies, but not everything you need if you plan to cook meals for a number of people. Lastly, there is an issue with the hose to the garbage disposal that affects the right side of the sink. I suspect it was "fixed" before, but only jerry rigged because the quick fix failed during our stay which caused a leak under the kitchen sink. We couldn't use the right side of the sink nor the dishwasher which was an inconvenience. The neighborhood is fairly quiet and close to the San Jose Mission and downtown. Overall we enjoyed our stay, but there are some details that can be improved to make this a 5 star rental.

Convenient Stay Near San Antonio Attractions, With a Few Quirks
Overall, this place is great if you want a convenient spot close to San Antonio's main attractions (River Walk, Alamo, Market Square, etc.). Here are some details to help other travelers: The home is renovated but still older, so the floors and doors squeak. There are no curtains, and with many windows, it might be tricky if you have kids who need complete darkness to sleep. It seems they might be selling the place, which could explain the lack of curtains. We brought portable blackout curtains, but not enough for every window. The house does get a lot of natural light. There’s a distant train you can hear, but sound machines worked fine for us. Similarly, there’s a nearby dog, though its noise wasn’t bothersome with the sound machine. The casita is useful for extra space, but its bathroom foundation is slanted, making it a bit dizzying. We planned to have my grandfather stay there but worried he might fall at night. There are two showers in the main house, both upstairs. The pots and pans are basic, so bring cooking spray and your own seasonings; salt and pepper are provided. The property has plenty of room for everyone, and the main area is great for cooking and hanging out. As I mentioned, it’s close to everything, so it works well as a basic place to stay. Just keep in mind, the neighborhood you drive through may look older and a bit rough, but it felt safe. There’s also a nice short trail nearby with modern apartments, coffee shop, restaurant you can walk to.

Cedar House
Great house, fantastic location, horrible beds. The house itself was perfect for our family and the location was great with easy access to everything we wanted including running trails, the river walk, and easy access to highways. The beds were all extremely soft memory foam and no one in the family got a good nights sleep the entire week. The master bed was the worst and had a permanent indent that cased you to slide down one side all night. If the mattresses were replaced this would be a 5 not a 3.

Good location
Location was good for downtown/River Walk and the Missions. Master bath being worked on and was to be finished on our second day, but was not. Some dogs in the neighborhood that barked at night. Second night noticed sound of frequent trains in early morning. Kitchen was well supplied. Everyone stated beds were comfortable. Nice outside spaces (although back space was covered by leaves due to the time of year). Only a half bath downstairs, so if you have an elderly member they will have to go upstairs for bath/shower. Casita had several up steps/down steps into various areas which you need to be aware of. Some light switches are in odd places, meaning you sometimes have to walk into the room to another wall to get to a light switch for that room. Remodel was very nice, but just some of those simple things that could have been better thought out. We probably would not stay here again as a group.

Disappointing Stay
While in some ways the home is charming and it was clean, in other ways it was a very disappointing stay, for the amount charged. The bottom line was the air conditioning was not working properly and so the home was very warm and humid, given this was San Antonio, Texas. The ceiling fan and light in the master bedroom also did not operate, which made the bedroom very warm, dark and with no circulation, and a number of windows did not open (safety isssue??) Upon arrival we also had a plugged toilet (not from our doing), which I eventually cleared. Upon contacting the management company, someone was to come out on Friday - they never showed, and I was even told the AC person was finishing up a job and would call me. We were in town as a family for a wedding, so needless to say, this was not what we were expecting. This rental was ultimately handled by Vacasa - I would avoid them totally. Their customer service is terrible, and NO resolution with regard to my request for a refund of the partial cost. AVOID THIS HOUSE.

Clean property in a good location but…
The property was nice and clean for older construction and in a good Location. Everyone complained about the mattress toppers being too soft and uncomfortable. There were no kitchen towels or bath rugs and there was not enough towels for a property that is supposed to accommodate 16 people. We had 7 adults and four Kids for four days. There was also not enough silverware and plates for large groups.
