Memory Lane

We had a wonderful time visiting SA again. This was the perfect location for my mother to attend her 65th high school reunion and we had multiple option for meals and Horace Whispers was as advertised and very adorable. Would definitely recommend to others.

Girls weekend

This house was great for our weekend trip. Great kitchen with everything we needed and we cooked 2 meals while there. Neighborhood was quiet, beds were comfortable. We had a problem with internet connection upon arrival and the owner sent help. She arrived and contacted the carrier and had it fixed. It was about 15 minutes drive to downtown with several great places to eat in close proximity. We enjoyed our stay!

Wow

This place was perfect, exactly like the description but I would add wow. The perfection was in the details, like the towels, soaps, utensils, supplies, etc. The in, out, while we were there instructions were easy, reasonable and stress free. Thank you, host. We will be back.

Cute home in the Olmos Park neighborhood

This home was perfect for a weekend stay with my best friend and our two toddlers. The house is in the Olmos Park neighborhood, and is very close to all the main family attractions: The Doseum, the Pearl, San Antonio Zoo, etc. The home was baby friendly (spacious rooms for pack-n-plays, not a lot of breakable decor around) and had all the basic amenities for cooking meals at the house. Great little backyard for the kids to play in. The immediate street that the house is on is not as nice as the surrounding neighborhoods, but we felt safe in the home due to the locked gate and key pads to enter the home. We never experienced anything suspicious. The driveway will fit 2 medium sized SUVs. The owner texted us when we arrived so that we had her number in case we needed anything.

Reminiscent

Beautifully renovated home to the standards of Hilton or Marriott. Horace St is on the industrial side of McCullough Blvd but the neighbors are quiet and unassuming. Great location next to the historic community of Olmos Park and Trinity University. Quick access to Downtown, Zoo, and the Alamo Quarry Market. Large H-E-B grocery store down the street and plenty of restaurants to choose from.

Great renovation and location

Nice job renovating the property and home. Close access to Olomos Park and Heights were family live. The email directions for codes and WiFi were out dated but binder in house correct. Need full length mirror in at least one bedroom. On line listing shows "2" queen beds in one bedroom- there is only one. That was okay for us as there was another room with twin beds. Neighborhood little sketchy but gated parking was helpful.
