Overall the house and property are great. Clean and comfortable…Comfy beds especially nice. Amenities are fine. Only 2 things keeping me from rating it perfect: quality/lack of enough dining chairs and a funky kitchen faucet that splatters water all over. But that’s not going to keep me from recommending the house to others!
This property fit our two families well for a long weekend in Austin. The bedrooms were great with comfortable beds and clean accommodations. The pull out couch in the living room worked well for our son. We had plenty of space to hang out and the living area was very Deaf friendly for our group.
There were a few issues with the property such as a broken garage door, a missing faucet head on the kitchen sink, and a broken chair at the dining table. None of these issues negatively impacted our stay but we were surprised by them at a fairly new property. Management responded to our issues via text but the problems were not addressed during our stay. Overall I would stay here again.
Very clean and comfortable. Close to downtown, the airport and fairly close to COTA. Exceeded our expectations.
Had slight issue with key acces code but host contact fixed it pretty quickly.
We were here for a bachelor party. The home was close to all the places we wanted to go. Walking distance from Phoebes (you have try!)
Overall good experience.
Fantastic home! Stayed with a couple of friends. Easy access to everything and you can walk to restaurants and coffee shops too. Would certainly recommend.
Overall our stay at the property was fantastic! Within 15 minutes or less to everything we wanted to do. My only complaint was the check in process. I messaged the company about 1 week prior about early check in and was told to contact them again day of. I contacted them day of around 10 AM requesting early check in at 2PM. I spoke to a representative and messaged via VRBO and was told they would contact the local team and contact me soon. I was contacted around 7 PM that night that I had been approved for early check in…3 hours past the normal check in time so other than that, great stay!
Place was as described, but could use more property oversight
House was a good layout in a good location. For the most part everything was good, but we arrived to a garage full of garbage from previous renters. Shower curtain was so moldy we had to replace it. Property boasts covid friendly, but did not have handsoap for each bathroom, which we ended up buying as well. All reported to property management/owners, but with no response. Also, no kitchen towels or bathmats and not enough towels. Could all be easily fixed if it was checked regularly.
Nice, new property in a trendy Austin neighborhood, just as advertised. Overall a great home base for a visit to Austin and region. A few minor maintenance and cleaning issues prevent a five star rating. Management was generally responsive. Just expected a bit more for a property priced at this level.
Great location to celebrate a birthday weekend with friends and family! Quick and close access to the University for sporting events.
Quick and easy access to restaurants, coffee et cetera.
Thank you for sharing your home we look forward to staying there again sometime.
Warmest Regards,
The Gómez Family
