This was a very pleasant house with plenty of room for our family of six to stay while we attended a family wedding. We appreciated the generous kitchen, generous rooms, and lovely decor. Easy to park, and very easy access to anywhere in Austin.

Awesome place!

Loved the house, the neighborhood and the location. It gave us everything we needed. When we felt like walking, we did. If we needed to catch a ride, Uber was very easy and accessible. Great place...would stay here again.

Great layout for a group of friends!

This was a great property for a group of friends. With 4 guests total, we each had our own room. The house still would have been very comfortable for 8 guests. The downstairs would be great for entertaining.

Great place for a family gathering

We rented this house for a surprise family party for my husband’s 75th b’day. It was perfect! Room for the little kids to play out back, for us to cook and congregate in the kitchen-family room, and for each couple to have a bedroom. Very well-stocked kitchen.

Amazing House and Location

First time in Austin, considered renting a condo but our party grew to 4 adults requiring 4 bedrooms so I found this house, the pictures don't do it justice! Beautiful house, has everything you need or could want. Close to everything, we rented a car, but found it easier to walk or Uber wherever we wanted to go. Super, safe quiet neighborhood. Would stay here again!

6/10 Okay

Just OK

The home is OK for a few day stay but would not recommend for a family renting for an extended period.

Wonderful Home

This house was PERFECT for a weekend away with friends. We shared the space with three other couples. Everyone raved about the beds - SUPER comfortable. The couch and living space were also 10/10. There wasn't anything we felt was missing or hadn't been thought about. Easy walk to SoCo area and cheap Ubers to all other areas. Would definitely recommend.

Family wedding with multiple events

Great location with privacy and excellent indoor and outdoor space. Had a little difficulty gwtting into the unit, but a quick response from the management team solved the issue. Will definitely consider this rental for our future visits to the area. Excellent and well-equipped chef's kitchen. Although there are many great restaurants in Austin, there are also excellent food shopping resources for those who enjoy cooking. the area. Best equppi

Family Girls trip!

The property is nice but needs some TLC. The toilet seat was broken in the downstairs bathroom, some outlets did not work and there was a huge crack in the ceiling in the downstairs bathroom. Finally, communication with the property manager was not good. I had emailed several times about early check-in and WiFi and I did not hear back.

From the owner: "Hi Becky, thank you for your feedback and for choosing our property for your girls’ trip.- We appreciate you bringing the maintenance items to our attention. The ceiling crack in the downstairs bathroom was the result of damage from a prior guest on the day of your arrival, and we’ve since submitted a repair request to the onsite manager.- The broken toilet seat and outlets have also been reported for immediate attention.- We regret that the communication didn’t meet expectations. Hilda is typically very responsive, but we understand how frustrating it is when replies are delayed. In this case, early check-in wasn’t available due to a same-day guest departure, which can limit flexibility.Thank you again for your comments. We’re committed to making the necessary improvements and hope you enjoyed your time together."

We want our guests to enjoy a seamless stay, and we're sorry for the inconvenience you experienced. As soon as you reported the leak at the kitchen sink, we promptly responded and had it repaired. To make up for the inconvenience, we discounted you one night's stay.
