The downstairs inside was nicely decorated. That being said, I was under the impression that we were getting the whole house. Perhaps it was poorly advertised, as it says “entire house,” underneath the photos. I should’ve caught on when it listed with one bedroom. The “welcome” message was nice, but never got a reply back until a day or two after checkout. There were a few mishaps with the property that occurred during the stay; Trying to get ahold of the host/business partner was not easy. Beware of the carpet pieces, as they hold sneaky little “stick-a-bers” that poke the crap outta you when you least expect it. The bed was incredibly comfortable. Spacious kitchen/dining area. ##### Patricia Stayed 2 nights in Nov 2024 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [AC Hotel by Marriott Dallas Downtown](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Dallas-Hotels-AC-Hotel-By-Marriott-Dallas-Downtown.h18228514.Hotel-Information) > > [Hyatt Place Austin Downtown](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Austin-Hotels-Hyatt-Place-Austin-Downtown.h5437747.Hotel-Information) > > [South Congress Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Austin-Hotels-South-Congress-Hotel.h9869259.Hotel-Information) > > [Hyatt Regency Houston/Galleria](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Houston-Hotels-Hyatt-Regency-HoustonGalleria.h10620692.Hotel-Information) > > [Downright Austin, A Renaissance Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Austin-Hotels-Downright-Austin.h7518.Hotel-Information) > > [Residence Inn by Marriott Austin Downtown/Convention Center](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Austin-Hotels-Residence-Inn-By-Marriott-Austin-DowntownConvention-Center.h1453501.Hotel-Information) > > [Crowne Plaza Dallas Downtown by IHG](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Dallas-Hotels-Crowne-Plaza-Hotel-Dallas-Downtown.h40414.Hotel-Information) > > [Hyatt Regency Dallas](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Dallas-Hotels-Hyatt-Regency-Dallas.h24753.Hotel-Information) > > [Fairmont Austin](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Austin-Hotels-Fairmont-Austin.h18156638.Hotel-Information) > > [AC Hotel by Marriott Houston Downtown](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Houston-Hotels-AC-Hotel-By-Marriott-Houston-Downtown.h36715633.Hotel-Information) > > [Club Wyndham Austin](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Austin-Hotels-Club-Wyndham-Austin.h20597750.Hotel-Information) > > [Hyatt Regency Houston Downtown](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Houston-Hotels-Hyatt-Regency-Houston.h20005.Hotel-Information) > > [Staybridge Suites Houston Galleria Area by IHG](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Houston-Hotels-Staybridge-Suites-Houston-Galleria-Area.h57536940.Hotel-Information) > > [Hilton Garden Inn Austin University Capitol District](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Austin-Hotels-Hilton-Garden-Inn-Austin-University-Capitol-District.h66911977.Hotel-Information) > > [Khaolak Merlin Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Thai-Mueang-Hotels-Khaolak-Merlin-Resort.h1797039.Hotel-Information) > > [Hilton Americas-Houston](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Houston-Hotels-Hilton-Americas-Houston.h976144.Hotel-Information) > > [Sonesta Hotel Houston IAH Airport](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Houston-Hotels-Sonesta-Hotel-Houston-IAH-Airport.h23787.Hotel-Information) > > [Hilton University of Houston](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Houston-Hotels-Hilton-University-Of-Houston.h40758.Hotel-Information) > > [Sonder by Marriott Bonvoy East 5th Apartments East Austin](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Austin-Hotels-Sonder-East-5th.h39486446.Hotel-Information) > > [The Reside](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Houston-Hotels-The-Reside.h22169664.Hotel-Information) > > [The Driskill, in The Unbound Collection by Hyatt](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Austin-Hotels-The-Driskill.h425573.Hotel-Information) > > [Magnolia Hotel Dallas Downtown](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Dallas-Hotels-Magnolia-Hotel-Dallas-Downtown.h282336.Hotel-Information) > > [Fairmont Dallas](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Dallas-Hotels-Fairmont-Dallas.h18280.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Indigo Austin Downtown - University by IHG](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Austin-Hotels-Hotel-Indigo-Austin-Downtown-University.h12294834.Hotel-Information) > > [Moody Gardens Hotel, Spa and Convention Center](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Galveston-Hotels-Moody-Gardens-Hotel.h157238.Hotel-Information) > > [Hyatt House Austin/Downtown](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Austin-Hotels-Hyatt-House-AustinDowntown.h17061159.Hotel-Information) > > [DoubleTree Suites by Hilton Austin Downtown Capitol](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Austin-Hotels-DoubleTree-Suites-By-Hilton-Austin.h24523.Hotel-Information) > > [Holiday Inn Express & Suites Austin NW - Four Points by IHG](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Austin-Hotels-Holiday-Inn-Express-Suites-Austin-NW-Four-Points.h9836657.Hotel-Information)
