Misrepresented Amenities & Host Refused to Assist

We stayed here for three weeks to be near our son, but the home didn’t meet expectations. While it appears nice, it lacked basic essentials—despite the listing claiming a “fully stocked” kitchen for “effortless entertaining” and “group meal prep.” In reality, there were just two pots, two pans, no prep or serving dishes, no blender, no oven mitts, and low-quality knives that rust easily—among other missing basic kitchen supplies. When we asked for a few basics, the host told us to purchase the missing items from H-E-B, explaining that previous guests had eaten out and not needed any kitchen items.There were minimal towels, only a few trash bags, no hooks or storage at the front or back door for jackets or shoes, and the living room TV only received Spanish channels. The bathroom couldn’t power more than one electric item at a time without blowing a breaker—which had to be reset outside. There was also no fire extinguisher or first aid kit, and the kitchen flooring was uneven and a tripping hazard.Although the host emphasized striving for 5-star reviews and encouraged us to communicate any needs, when we did, she declined to assist and instead directed us to purchase the missing items ourselves. We’ve rented vacation homes in Austin several times, and this was by far the least equipped. If you’re staying just a few days and eating out every meal, the location is good—but for a longer visit or if you plan to cook and do any kind of meal prep, we recommend looking elsewhere.
