BRING ANY ESSENTIALS...don't expect it! ok...I stayed there in this AIRBNB for a huge event, my daughter was married at the Palm Door in downtown Austin and everything for the weekend was spectacular. Most people stayed at the Hilton, (where the bride & groomed stayed) but I wanted to spend more money on her gift and I knew I would only be there to shower and sleep (which was a little :) ). For the most part, it was as described as what the pics showed...however, I didn't bring any body soap of any kind and there was Body Lotion in the shower.(no body soap)..I only showered there once and showered @ the hotel after that surprising situation. Then I was unable to get the TV to work at all. I tried texting the host and never got a reply. I think there should maybe be a little direction on that...I just like to have TV on when I am away from home. .....I did have my chromebook and beats speaker...so I just listened to music. The outside grass was grown over the little stepping stones and that wasn't very appealing....no other essentials at this place, no kleenex, no plasticware, I brought a bottle of wine, no cups of any kind...nothing other than towels, toilet paper, hand soap, 3 bottles of water I think were in the frig,. you need everything!....oh...and if you like coffee, that was there, I drink ice tea....but that's just a personal preference...Bed was very comfortable! I think I shopped around and assumed too much from this place,I am learning what is important in AIRBNB's. Next time I will be sure and book somewhere they have lots of amenities such as soap!
Definitely not a good first time AIRBNB experience. I know I will do it again, just more cautiously. UBER'S are great in AUSTIN!
