Summary: This truly felt like home away from home. Every thing we needed was available, even little things we hadn’t thought about possibly needing. The home was very clean and exactly as the listing had described. We were in Austin to celebrate the graduation of our daughter from University of Texas Austin. As luck would have it her house is literally around the block. The nice patio area in the back was a delightful spot to gather as a family and enjoy our time together.

Summary: Within walking distance of restaurants, coffee shops and thrift stores but, also, a quiet location. Loved the modern updates mixed with preserving some of the original touches. Bonuses were the large kitchen, fenced yard and how close we were to everything! (Literally listened to the Texas game from the backyard) One of the best equipped places we’ve ever stayed…Would definitely stay here again.

Summary: We only stayed one night, but we greatly enjoyed it. It is very close to campus, but the street was quiet and peaceful. It was easy to park and the backyard was clean with good furniture. We brought a dog and the dog door plus the backyard made it great. We inly had two small nitpicks. First, we had to pay for damage insurance and a damage deposit, and I feel like it should be either/or. Second, the thermostat would keep resetting itself to 80 pr 85 degrees even in the middle of the night. Overall, we would stay again and It was great for our short visit

Summary: My family and I recently stayed at this location. It is in a great area and within 15 min of groceries and must see hot spots. We also really enjoyed sitting on the patio for morning coffee. Our host was quick to respond to any questions we had. Unit B is clean and well stocked with anything you may need. We would definitely stay here again!

Summary: We stayed for the weekend and enjoyed the house. It is dog-friendly and even has a dog door. The location is centrally located and very walkable (with the dogs). Communication with the host was a bit bumpy before the say, but it all sorted itself out. I highly recommend this house!!
