The place was great! Great communication! Very clean and cozy. Had everything we needed. Beds were very comfortable. Area was great! Very close to everything.
This unit was the best solution for 4 adults! First and foremost, it was CLEAN! Thank you :)
We saved time and money by cooking and eating breakfast before leaving for the day, Shower pressure was fantastic. An overall great spot in Austin.
A secluded light filled gem just blocks from South Congress. We felt comfortable from the moment we walked in. The booking and verification process took minutes, and there were no reasons to call our hosts as the instructions were clear and we had everything we needed.
My stay was fantastic! I was greated with music and a complimentary snack. The beds were very comfortable. The shower was hot and wonderful. There's a screened in porch area, which would be great in warmer weather! Laundry on site and parking! Travis Heights is one of the best neighborhoods in Austin, hands down. I come in for work trips a lot and I think I found my home away from home!
Great location! CLEAN! People next to us had two cars and the bronco had a problem staying on their side so it was a tight fit to leave the driveway. Please know they control the thermostat. It will only stay at your selected temp for maybe two hours and then it automatically adjusts to what they have pre programmed. Also not ok with the thermostat being locked down till 1030 every night to where I would have to get back out of bed to put it on the temperature we are comfortable at.
First of all, we loved the neighborhood! It is beautiful! Exactly where Id choose if I lived here! The property was clean and the amenities were perfect!
We arrived before check in time and although we weren't able to get into the house yet, we were able to leave our car parked in driveway so we could catch an Uber to the Capitol for a meeting. After a long day, we arrived to the lights dimmed, soothing music playing, and everything was super clean. The furniture was comfy and we actually tried two of the suggested restaurants (The Magnolia Cafe for Breakfast and Top Notch Burger for Lunch) - they were great! Would definitely stay here again!
We loved our stay at the yellow door rental. The accommodations were excellent. The house was clean and modern. We were very happy with all the amenities. Beds were comfortable. Check in process went flawless. And we loved the location. We were able to walk to Lady Bird. Zilker Park. And South Congress. Very nice neighborhood. Overall excellent place to stay and we will look these rentals up next trip to town.
Everything is well laid out and adequately supplied. The decor style is modern yet practical. Very nice neighborhood to walk around. We had a very comfortable 2-night stay. As users of Homeaway/Vrbo for 2 decades, we highly recommend this place.
Didn’t get to stay long enough to really enjoy the neighborhood. Such a cool place to walk. Only one day but hope to come back to Austin and will definitely stay here again!
Very cool interior, great furnishings, lovely amount of space, in a beautiful neighborhood that is super well located for excursions to South Congress or Downtown, plus a ton of other stuff. Loved it!
