Truly a perfect location in East Austin –– incredibly easy to access everything we wanted to check out. La Barbecue is less than a five minute walk, Rainey Street is a very short Uber ride away, and Vera Cruz tacos (get breakfast tacos here) isn't more than a 5-10 minute walk. There are a few convenience stores real close as well in case you need to grab anything for your stay.
Shane is super quick to respond and makes sure that everything is going well with his guests. He was really helpful when first booking the location and was in constant contact throughout our stay. The listing is basically exactly as pictured –– the living room has been rearranged slightly, but that's about it. It's a really convenient, fenced in location where you won't have to worry about sound/privacy, within reason (there are neighbors, but they seemed friendly and easygoing). We had eight guys stay for a bachelor party and had absolutely no problems with space or noise.
The only thing I'd note is to make sure to let Shane know if any of your guests are allergic to dogs. Shane listed that in the 'other things to note,' too, but I'd just make sure to double check before your stay just to be safe.
