We had a wonderful stay in this lovely duplex in South Austin. It’s compact, bright, well-appointed and in a fantastic location! It was very clean at check-in, there were plenty of blankets and towels and all the instructions were very clear. Would definitely recommend to a friend. Here are a few more details…
KITCHEN: We didn’t cook here, but I think we could have put together some meals if we needed to. We easily found a sauce pan for making tea, and everything we needed for ordering takeout/heating up leftovers was easy to locate. I especially appreciated that the glasses and flatware were in a frosted glass cabinet.
YARD - Great shape and size for our 25 lb Goldendoodle, plenty of room for her to do her business and run around, and it felt very private from the duplex neighbor. It’s fully fenced, though there’s a 6 inch gap beneath the bottom slat of the portion of the fence directly in front of the house. Our dog Lola has a pretty narrow chest (19” circumference) and could definitely squeeze under that gap if she wanted to get out. For this reason, we felt that we had to keep a close eye on her whenever she was in the yard. She definitely enjoyed being slightly elevated above the street so she could see all the people driving and walking by.
BEDS: The king-sized bed is reasonably comfortable, not too firm, not too soft. There’s a variety of pillows; it’s worth taking a moment to try them all out to see which one/s work best for you.
LOCATION: Very near many of our favorite South Austin spots, especially Radio and Loro, yummm! It’s very quick to get to Lamar, Menchaca, 290… The house is on the corner of two very busy streets, both cut through to major thoroughfares, so there’s a lot of traffic and activity, but it also makes getting places very convenient.
COMMUNICATION: Communication with Laura was excellent, prompt, and clear. She was very kind to accommodate a late check out which made it possible for us to stay through Saturday!
