South Side Living and Maker Spaces | Lofts for rent in San Antonio, TX

Really love living at South Side Living + Maker Spaces. The vibe here is super chill and creative, and the staff has always been friendly and helpful. The apartments have a cool, unique design. It's not your typical cookie-cutter layout, which I really like. The maker spaces are a huge plus if you're into art, building stuff, or just want a spot to work on projects. It’s a great setup for anyone who likes having a creative space right where they live. Overall, it's been a great place to live. Quiet, welcoming, and just a little different in the best way.

Move in process was super easy, I applied right after the tour. The space is pretty and cozy. I moved from La Cantera/Huebner area and it was way too crowded for me. Area is pretty quiet I have not even ran into any traffic. Perfect place for me. I would only wish for a gym or workout space outdoor. They could definitely make something cute outside with the space so hopefully that’s coming soon!

Southside Living is a great apartment in San Antonio, its close to downtown. The pricing is reasonable, the floor plans are mostly all different, and theres an art studio with events for residents / artist. They do preventative maintenance which is great because most apartments do not care what kind of conditions you are living in. Sometimes the gate will get stuck which kinda sucks but other than that i have not had any problems moving in here. Jake, is the best apartment manager out there. Hes phenomenal, as long as you are a NORMAL human being, with consideration for others you will have no issues here. Dont listen to that loser Alan (the one who left a bad review for no good reason) who’s obviously a hateful individual with no home training.

Cons: There has been a few inappropriate, rude and harassing residents that have come and gone. Front office does an ok job at reporting and handling issues, but I had to take matters to law enforcement several times. Eye sore behind field-house, I’ve been living here for more than a 2 years and noticed a HUGE pile of scraps (see pictures) just tucked behind the field-house so people won’t see it. I admit, we I did a tour I didn’t even notice the pile. We love to see the space fully utilized. Same art in gallery probably since opening,2020, would love to see local artists from SA & SS be promoted in what could be an art collective hub. Living next to a truck dispatch, be prepared to hear trucks honking, backing up and sometimes people talking at all kinds of hours trying to gain access into their facilities Pay extra for washer dryer rental hook ups in your unit Pros: Nice accessible,secure studio apartments. Front office is professional and maintenance is outstanding, both handle requests and residential needs asap. Cable, water and electricity included in rent. Water and electricity usage is very low and inexpensive Wonderful art gallery and outdoor space. Pet friendly, though there is not “dog park” it’s just a field, would be great if they built a fenced dog park. Trash valet service Sun-Thur make sure to have trash out no later than @5pm Residents usually keep to themselves, but most people I've encountered have been friendly. There’s only a few artists in the building, (painters, musicians, digital media, music and light production) generally young living 22-35 yrs,with few elderly. Quite overall living space, next to lumber yard and truck dispatch 🛻 Art events usually every few months which our fun events!

I love this space!! The high ceilings, brand new appliances, and the fact that it is a sustainably repurposed space and uses solar energy are great features. I also think the location is perfect, right off the river and very close to Southtown. It is a great space for artists, creative types and entrepreneurs...
