Bright. Airy. Open. Expansive. The Sun Room suite is very aptly named. The Sun Room suite is located on the second floor of the house. If you are looking for a room that is the kind of place where you could spend weeks at a time and never feel cramped, the Sun Room suite would be your choice. The Sun Room suite has unique features that are not duplicated anywhere else in the house, and only rarely equaled at B&Bs elsewhere. The Sun Room suite is an accommodation of superlatives.

Begin your tour of the Sun Room suite by entering the room and the bedroom proper. The bedroom in the Sun Room suite contains a queen-size highbed and matching chest in the Spanish Colonial style. The other decorative elements in the bedroom all harken back to the decorative heritage of Old Mexico. Yet, you will find all the modern conveniences, including flat-screen TV, private phone, DVD and Internet access. By itself, the bedroom is a spacious room, but is only part of the suite.

The bath is done in dark blue tile, and features a shower with showerhead, handheld shower and three body jets- all of which combine to give you an invigorating experience, whether you are preparing for your day or relaxing at the end of it.

The separate vanity area is outside the bath, which is convenient when two people are occupying the room. The vanity has a beautiful and extremely colorful ceramic tile bowl of a type and of a decoration usually only found in the best homes in Mexico.

The sun room itself is a bright comfortable room, surrounded with windows on three sides, and contains ample seating for reading and relaxing. To help with the relaxing part, you'll welcome the soothing sounds made by the waterfall in the East Garden, and you'll have a wonderful view of the entire garden just below your windows. Read; relax; converse; work. It's your choice, for in your private sun room, all are possible and all are pleasant.

Your tour of your amazing suite isn't done yet, though; not by a long shot. You will find a circular wrought iron stairway, when you reach the top of the staircase, you'll find yourself enclosed in a four-sided cupola, perched on the roof of the house, directly above your suite and reachable only from it.

Open the cupola's door and step outside onto your own, completely private, rooftop deck.

Here, in an area invisible from the rest of the rooms in the house, you can relax on the two "steamer" loungers and sunbathe, read, simply appreciate the morning and drink your coffee and tea or relax in the afternoon with a glass of wine.

Your private rooftop deck is the final amazing feature of this most comfortable suite, and it is one of the features that make the Sun Room by far our most popular room. Reserve it for your stay in San Antonio. Even considering all that we've had to say about it, we are absolutely positive that you won't be disappointed.
