Short business trip

The home was exactly as described. It is located in a great central location. Sam's BBQ right down the street looks rough, but its some of the best BBQ I've ever eaten. I would definitely stay here again!

Perfect little spot

This was a perfect little house in a very quiet neighborhood. We were in town for the Pearl Jam shows at Moody Center and the location was great for Ubers to and from the venue. The next time I'm in town, I'll definitely check to see if this place is available!

Great East Austin Location

Small house was perfect for my wife and I and our dogs. The little fenced yard was great for their late night potty breaks. House was as described. Location was great: I walked dogs several times and grew to appreciate how diverse the neighborhood is. Excellent food trucks and restaurants in the neighborhood. Very easy access to downtown and IH 35, if you avoid rush hour. All in all, excellent bang for the buck. Thanks, Cesar.

Great spot, fun neighborhood

We needed a place to stay in Austin after the eclipse, and this one was a find. The high end appliances and climate control options were great, and the fast WiFi came in handy when I needed to be in a remote long distance meeting for several hours. Our dog settled right in, and especially liked the little fenced backyard. It’s in a quiet neighborhood, just blocks from all kinds of takeout windows and food trucks in one direction, with a nice running/biking trail and light rail in the other. There were even fireflies! We only wish we could have stayed longer (especially since the food trucks and nearby BBQ were closed on certain days). Highly recommended!

Easy East Austin

Cute house, super convenient location and we loved the little yard for our pup. The off street parking spot is a great feature as well. I wish the house was a little cleaner, the water pressure in the bathroom sink is quite low and the back door sticks badly but all those are fixable items. I was double charged for the pet fee even though we brought only one of our dogs but maybe the host will make it up next time. No big deal. Overall comfortable, enjoyable stay.

Great location and property

We were invited to a last minute going away party for a friend in Austin, and needed a place to stay that would be safe and dog-friendly on a short notice. Cesar was very communicative and the property was fantastic and clean. I would highly recommend this VRBO.

Perfect casita in East Austin

We were in town to visit with our daughter and celebrate her recent graduation from UT. Cesar's place was clean, cozy, well-appointed (we loved the LG Styler!), and in a great location!Sadly, we probably won't be coming to Austin much on these sorts of trips anymore, but we'd highly recommend Casita Poquita to others!
