                A group of 6 (2 couples, 2 singles) stayed at this property in early November. We were all from out of town, visiting for a wedding. This property worked out well for this size group, but couldn't accomodate much bigger. {The listing accurately reflects the number of bedrooms/set-up, etc, but some of the reviews alluded to more space than actually exists, although I believe the owner has another unit too.} There were plenty of games, TV, movies to keep you entertained if you decided to stay inside, which we did not. This property is in an awesome location. We were able to walk (day and night) to downtown Austin and there's plenty to do in the immediate neighborhood (within a 5-10 minute walk). For those reasons, I wish we could have stayed longer! The street was quiet, even in the evening. No city noise at all. We felt very safe. The property was clean, well stocked with towels, dishes and appliances. It seemed a bit more rustic than the photos. The owner was very easy to reach and provided us with helpful information prior to the trip. Being out of towners was a bit tricky in a residential neighborhood. Taxi drivers didn't always know where we were headed and neither did we and some streets were closed due to a big event, which added to the transportation woes. I recommend familiarizing yourself with the area, if you opt to rely on public transportation and taxis.

                Recommended for: Girls getaway, people with disabilities, families with young children, sightseeing, families with teenagers, tourists without a car, adventure seekers.

                Owner response: Thank you for your feedback. I will contact you to see how I may improve my place. kirk

                What an awesome house! With four bathrooms, it was really easy for our large party to stay without feeling cramped. We loved the front and especially back deck, which was perfect for relaxing and entertaining. We would definitely stay here again.

                We loved our stay! The house is fabulous - especially with FOUR bathrooms! It was perfect for our group (3 couples) because it offered great space for hanging out (living area, deck, yard) but still enough privacy with bedrooms and (3)bathrooms en suite. The 4th bedroom went unused, and there was futon available as well (less private) and definitely space if someone wanted to bring an air mattress, etc. We loved the location because it gave a nice balance of neighborhood feel (many local shops, restaurants, & music venues just a few minutes walk) but had easy access to the downtown area (6th and Congress is approx. 30 minute walk, $6-7 taxi ride, or $.75 bus on either First street or Congress - with frequent bus service). In addition, there is wireless internet available which was a huge plus. The price is fair for what's available in the area and the house was great!

                Great location, spacious home. Rather sparsely furnished right now, but has the essentials and seems to be a work in progress. The owner is very responsive and accommodating too. We had a great stay.
