We were two couples in town for the Georgia vs Texas game. This was the perfect rental for us. It was just as described. Spacious, comfortable, well stocked and the host was great. Jason was a good communicator and even suggested places to eat, get coffee, etc. The location was perfect and walking to UT campus was easy. We throughly enjoyed our visit to Austin.I would highly recommend this house. ##### Margaret C. Stayed 3 nights in Oct 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### TIMOTHY W. 3 Aug 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Awesome Spot We got in late on a Saturday evening, and we loved the place as soon as we got in. Open living / dining / kitchen space is great for standing at the island or lounging or munching. Electronics worked as advertised so we had tunes. Had a few friends over for a simple dinner night before we left, and all the dishes and tools were there (I made peach cobbler, rest was potluck). Great spot: food w/in walking or short drive. Can't blame the hosts for Austin's summer heat! Jason was quick to respond to my STR newbie questions. And there was ample parking as he had told me in correspondence there would be. ##### TIMOTHY W. Stayed 5 nights in Jul 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Amy F. 18 Jun 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Perfection! As other reviews have stated, pictures do not do justice. The house is beautiful and modern with exceptional decor. It is well stocked with everything you would need, and the location is fantastic. My daughter and I had never been to Austin and had several days worth of bucket list items we wanted to do with no way to get it all done in the three days we were there. Luckily, everything we had on our list was within a 5 mile radius so we were able to do most! I can’t recommend this property enough!! A million stars! ##### Amy F.

The kitchen is beautifully equipped and the back yard decks are wonderful. Nearby public bus service makes getting around easy, abetted by plentiful Lyft drivers. ##### Nina M.

Stayed 5 nights in Dec 2019 ### 8/10 Good #### Rene V. 7 Jun 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location #### Great location. Easy walk to UT and downtown. Funky urban chic but comfy. Beds were just right. Lists as a six sleeper but several rooms closed off which we did not know until we checked in.- though we were charged for extra guests. Hmmm. There was an expectation we do laundry and some other chores before leaving. Okay, but what was the cleaning fee for? We generally liked the place but the sense of nickel and dime fees will make us think twice for future options. ##### Rene V.

This was the perfect "home base" for our Austin weekend. Walking distance (yes people were parking past this place) for the Longhorn football game. Or any other LH sports activity. Great location. Now to the house...which has been updated and has a nice, contemporary homey feel. We enjoyed the amazing (private) backyard and deck each day. The master bathroom is a sanctuary.....I spent longer getting ready than normal just to enjoy the area. Loved the kitchen and cooking - had almost everything (bring salt/pepper) you need. Gas stovetop +++. More than enough room for our family of 4 to enjoy our Longhorn weekend get a way - and homey enough to not miss the normal family thanksgiving dinner with family. When we come to Austin, we will be back! ##### Mic B.

Great value too. the yard and deck are awesome, master bathroom is one of a kind, concrete floors are so pretty, great open floor plan. Best value on Airbnb! Hope to stay here whenever I'm back in Austin. ##### Jason E. Stayed 2 nights in Jul 2017 ---
