Game weekend stay

Overall location was convenient-lots of homeless people which is sometime scary! House was nice but bathroom need a major update! Mold in both showers and toilets were child size. Main sitting area was very nice but tv didn’t work very well because of its age! Needed more king size beds! For what we paid I expected better!

Great for Kids and Adults

We had a great time at this facility. We were a group of ten, including two children and their mother; three twenty something’s; a married couple and two aunts. There were enough bedrooms and beds for everyone to sleep comfortably and with a measure of privacy. The house was well appointed and clean. The neighborhood was quiet and in close proximity to all the things we wanted to do.

Great clean house next to the Bat Bridge and Austin downtown

Great house! The only minor nitpick is that the first-floor guest bathroom (not the master bedroom one but the small one) had water tap with a broken handle that fell off when I touched it :) I still managed to open the tap and get some water so no big deal really. Hopefully the house owner will fix it ASAP!

Disappointed

The house itself was great. The walk way to the house is a stone path and you could not just roll your suitcase to the door which was difficult, we are not as strong as we use to be. The beds were comfy enough, the light in one of the rooms upstairs not working. Pool not heated and had a cleaning contraption in it which was in the way. Biggest complaint was the CONSTANT reminders before we even got to the property that ONLY people listed could be on property and it would be monitored (are there hidden cameras all over?) and you would be subject to a $2000 fine. So I couldn't even have my son come over for a cocktail before we went out for dinner for fear of a fine. Also, the safe neighborhood? Lots and lots of homeless people, and places within walking distance? Had to walk through several homeless encampments to get there. VERY uncomfortable!!

Best House in Austin

We had a conference at the Convention Center and this space was perfect for us! We each had our own bedroom and could have our team meetings in the the living room. Super clean and comfortable. Everyone on the team complimented on how well they slept. We will have to come back in the summer so we can use the pool! It's in the best location, just blocks from Rainey Street and a 5 min walk to the Convention Center. Highly, highly recommended!
