The property was decorated nicely and the kitchen was well-stocked. There were only a few cons: We found dirty towels hanging in one of the bathrooms. There was not enough comfortable seating for 6 adults in the living room area and one of the bedrooms was an uncomfortable cot style bed.The kitchen was well-stocked. The neighborhood was just okay with about a 10 -15 minute uber ride to where restaurants and bars are. It was not walkable like I had hoped.

I’m a former longhorn and was excited to bring my family to a UT game to see my old stomping grounds. Unfortunately, the house was not as expected. I promised my kids they would have their own bed and when we got there I realized the so called sofa bed was not a sofa bed at all, but just a deep couch with no extra blanket to be found. My kids were pissed. The microwave also was broke although the owner had someone come to try to fix it which is how we found out it was just broken. There were no ceiling fans and omg I was sweating all weekend. They had a coffee machine with hardly any coffee and zero sugar or creamer. I don’t understand the point of a coffee machine if we’re expected to travel with the coffee. Great location, but that’s about it. We wouldn’t stay here again.

We had a great stay at the South Congress house! The location is perfect for hitting a lot of the fun Austin restaurants but the neighborhood was still quiet. We were in walking distance of a couple of bars, coffee and food. The beds were comfy and pillows were cozy!

Perfect location

The house was in a great little neighborhood where some houses had been redone, some brand new builds and others that needed a reno. Felt very safe and accessible to everything. Food, I35, peace and quiet.
