We really enjoyed our stay. The home is wonderful and the outdoor space is probably the best that we have had in an Airbnb. There is a nice covered outdoor area with a pool in the back that is well maintained and fenced for privacy.
The interior was clean and worked well for our group of 9. The kitchen is great and the home was very clean.
The only things to be aware of are that this is in fact a shared space and the neighborhood is not great.
The listing shows that you are getting the whole house, which is technically true. However, the "whole house" is unit B. So, there is also a unit A attached. There is plenty of parking and there was no bleed-over of noise from that unit to ours. However, you are sharing the outdoor space with the other unit as well as 2 other units next door. This was not an issue for us but could be for some.
When driving to the house, I got a bit nervous about what kind of experience we were going to have due to the fact that the neighborhood seems a bit sketchy. I was very relieved to see that there was a tall wall all around the property with locking gates for privacy and security. It is in a neighborhood that needs it. Austin is also currently having quite a homeless issue right now, which probably made it seem worse. Everything turned out just fine and I would still recommend this home to anyone. Just don't plan to do a morning run around the neighborhood.
The hosts were as responsive as any that we have ever had. They even helped us extend our stay at the last minute with no problem. This home is quite a value for what amenities are provided. I would recommend it to others.
