I never figured I’d be the«public transit» guy one day. San Antonio isn’t exactly known for being a bus town so the thought of riding the Via always seemed a bit foreign to me. With that being said, I much prefered a Via bus pass to blowing $ 100+/month to downtown parking garage fees. Ridiculous. Anywho, I digress. This station is fairly small. Probably like 6 benches outside, 1 small indoor seating area with about 40 seats and a pay station with restrooms 10 feet away. The parking lot is ample and there are security guards always walking the premises so you can feel safe whether you’re seated next to a shady looking character or if you’re at work wondering if you locked your car. The people who work here are so-so and the place isn’t sparkling clean but they do a decent job acting like they care. For what it is, it could be much worse so I rate them on how even though the place is not great, it’s also not that bad. Also, since its public transit, my expectations also drop a few points. Use it as a low cost convenient option but definitely keep your expectations in check and you’ll be fine.

This Park and Ride is the closest you can get to Universal City. I hope in time that Via expands that so we can get more service routes to and from the Randolph AFB area. I have friends that live in UV but I rarely get to see them because of the lack of bus service.
