Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, location
Disliked: Listing accuracy
Very nice house with great location walking distance to downtown, but unfortunately multiple aspects of the listing were incorrectly advertised. There is no King bed, only full beds in both bedrooms. The beds and sofa bed are comfy, just disappointing to be expecting a King and only get a full. You also are not allowed to use the walk in closet that is advertised in the listing off the master. They also did not provide enough towels for a full week, and only 2 ply toilet paper which we ran out of before our stay and they never replaced despite our reaching out. Lastly the backyard is incredibly underutilized, it could definitely benefit from a jacuzzi or something after those long Austin festival days!
Easy check in process, clean place, exactly as listed. Easy to walk to everything if you're a walker, we ubered to congress and walked our way back. Our issues were addressed ASAP, would stay here again.

Than you for your patience while we resolved the issues during your stay. It's great to hear that y'all enjoyed your stay. Thanks so much for the review
We needed to stay somewhere close to the University and this was perfect for us, you can see the football stadium from the kitchen window. Very comfortable and clean.

It's close enough to the action but far enough away that you're not in the middle of the noise. Glad y'all enjoyed it Tracey!
The location couldn’t be any better. Literally 10 minutes or less to every spot we went. The view was amazing and the second floor patio was a bonus. Even though it’s close to the freeway, we could barely hear the noise, and I think the slight bustling helped me sleep. Highly recommend this spot and will definitely stay again.
We loved this rental. It was spotless clean, easy to find, close to all things Austin! Beds were dreamy comfortable. Would love to stay again!

This is an incredible review! Thank you for trusting us with your stay! It means so much to hear you had a great experience. Wishing you all the best, and we hope to see you again soon Janine :)
Pros: lots of space, easy check in, private, beds were comfy, lots of bathrooms for all of us, close to our local destinations. Would stay again.Cons: no closet access in primary suite, coffee maker did not work. Some highway noise, but not bothersome.
This property was very nice, and clean and the location was great. Our group would definately stay here again. The Property manager was super responsive to my questions.
