Thank you so much. So glad to hear. Would love to host a group again next time you’re in the area. We have several other properties as well that you can find on our website – GuestSpaces.
It was a comfortable stay. The place and location were a great fit for us. The listing is accurate, and the hosts are friendly. They use a management company.

Thanks so much Michael! We'd love to have you stay at any of our GuestSpaces properties when you're in Austin next!
This was the perfect place for our family to enjoy UT graduation. The place was recently remodeled so everything was fresh and clean. Great layout with a small backyard that was perfect for our group to enjoy meals at the picnic tables. Plenty of bedrooms and bathrooms too.
A great place for a group of friends! The duplex setup made it easy to maintain privacy, and the backyard was a nice place to hang out as a group. Would stay here again!

We are so glad you enjoyed our home, and we would love to have you back any time!
This property worked well for our ACL weekend needs. Perfect for adults and adult kids to have their own space and room for a long music festival. Although pricey for a weekend, the accommodations and location for ACL is recommended.

Thank you for your kind review, Amy! We are glad the home worked out for you and your family for ACL! We hope we can host you again!
Nice property in a great location. Nothing fancy but all that you need! Great location off Mopac in central Austin. Nice quiet neighborhood, plenty of parking and both units had all necessary amenities.

Thank you for your kind words, Carol. We'd love to host you again.
Great location. There is a great dive bar nearby as well as a fabulous chicken place within a quarter of a mile. The sub sandwich place is very good as well. We got an Uber to get around, but, it's only a mile or so from West 6th Street area.
We had 11 people in our group and had plenty of good sleeping spaces.

Thanks for being great guests! Hope to have you stay with us again!
Our group had a great stay in Austin, the size of the property was great for our group of 8. We enjoyed the large outdoor space. Check in was easy, and the property managers were very quick to respond when we had an issue with one of the freezers. Location was pretty good, we were able to walk to Zilker park easily and a few restaurants.
