The beginning of October we were on a road trip through the US. After reading the wonderful reviews online, we booked a one night stay. Upon arrival we found this run down house and thought "what is this". The first step inside was the second shock when greeted by the smell of cat urine and an older woman who had... More

We enjoyed our stay at Christmas House. It's a cute idea...Our room was clean and comfortable. Penny and Margaret were very hospitable and knowledgeable. The location is great. You can hear alot of traffic and maybe a train or siren but it didn't bother us at all. We prefer that to the noise of a tourist-filled loud hotel above a... More

My wife and I stayed here this past wkd with intentions to have a unique christmas-like bnb experience only to find a shock....upon our arrival the place was filthy dirty, the place was covered in dust, like an inch thick, unbelievable...how do you welcome guests this way?... we were afraid to touch anything, and the place was just cluttered with...

We stayed here in April 2008. We were in town for the final4 championship games. This place was fine for us. We rented a car but hardly got it out. Bus stops just outside their front door, will take you downtown for a dollar each way..... Breakfast was served each morning in the dining room and if you came in... More

Christmas House reminds my family of going home to Grandmas. It's warm, friendly, relaxed and always welcoming. We return there whenever Trinity University has a family weekend and my daughter takes a break from the dorms to stay with my husband & I in the cozy Victorian room. We enjoy visiting with owners Grant & Penny and have met interesting... More

We have came to San Antonio and stayed down on the Riverwalk, but when we stayed at the Christmas House B&B, we were impressed with the decor, friendly innkeepers, Penny and Grant.,and will not stay any where else. Breakfast is served at the dining room table and the conversation and food is wonderful. The hosts are knowledgable of the area,... More

We also arrived to find the parlour cluttered to the point of no where to sit for guests - the overall establishment resembled that of a garage sale - our room, the Santa Claus room, was acceptable, and not cluttered, although it would not have passed the "white glove" dust test. The biggest concern to us, and the reason we... More

We arrived to find the living room so cluttered with junk and stacked furniture that it was not usable. The room was infested with large black flies. The bathroom smelled and the shower door leaked constantly. Our room faced a noisy four lane road. The balcony overlooked this road, but had no furniture. Our son slept upon a fold out... More

Nice B&B about 2 miles north of downtown, but right on a convenient bus line. Located only minutes south of the airport, but not close enough to be bothered by plane noise. Two nice restaurants a 5 minute walk away. We paid $75 (+ 13% tax) for cute room with private bath and private veranda in April, 2006. House has... More
