GREAT LOCATION: We didn’t have enough time to thoroughly explore the general area as planned, but there were plenty of nearby places for us to grab a drink/bite at! Also easy/short Ubers to other hotspots in Austin. Note that they were, however, major surge pricing in the late evenings (especially when bars are closing).
APPROPRIATE SIZE: With the use of the rollaway bed, there was just enough space, upstairs, to fit the 7 of us for a bachelorette weekend - 2 in each of the bedrooms, and we added the rollaway bed to the main one.
RESPONSIVE HOST: We had a late flight and he graciously allowed us to keep our luggages there for a couple extra hours after check-out. :)
PRICING: Ended up being a little steep for our group of 7 since the majority of us weren’t able to make it in early enough to fully enjoy the first day. 🥺 Would be of greater value for those who have plans to actually enjoy the surrounding area. That was what we had originally envisioned but ended up spending a full day out near Lake Travis and most of our afternoons/evenings on Rainey and 6th.
GENERAL IMPRESSIONS:
—Beautiful backyard. 😍 While we didn’t get a chance to actually enjoy it ourselves, the latest addition of the outdoor “pool” was a great bonus. Pack extra bug spray.
—Main bathroom & closet = great size! Suggest bringing additional towels.
—We had a car rental so having access to the on-premise outdoor parking spot was convenient.
—Bugs: Just expect that you will likely encounter some (we did)? The property has a large backyard and nearby trees, it’s expected. It didn’t bother us so much that we needed to reach out to the host. Suggest not leaving uncovered food out on the counters overnight/for an extended time period and that the trashcan remains closed.
