For the most part we really enjoyed our stay but we do have a couple “ could be better “ notes to share . i do want to note that our hosts were extremely attentive and communicative which i appreciated much . Here goes :
PROS
1. great hosts, very available and quick to respond
2. amazing convenient location next to the park and near all the good stuff in Austin
3. the AC is amazing, the interior is very thoughtfully and tastefully appointed
4. kitchen had all the implements and easy to use . very cleans
5. interior was spotless
6. we appreciated the thoughtful host touches like welcome drinks
7. great wifi , there is a speaker you can hook up to via bluetooth for music
CONS
1. the biggest con was that there was an unexpected vermin ( a real bug issue that was not acceptable) . the hosts sent someone to spray immediately and attributed this issue to unseasonable heavy rains and humidity . i hope this problem is diligently addressed and have been rectified . i had 3 separate, unhappy incidences
2. the hot water faucet in the bath tub was a bit tricky to figure out . perhaps a “ info binder “ will be helpful
3. the fridge was somehow not “ on “ when we came in and the ice was melting from the freezer. we figured out how to restart it but it will be better if the crew that prepared the house before each guest would ensure everything is working
4. outdoor deck area was not as nice was the pictures . could use a refresh of the pillows , one more chair , and bug spray
