This was our first time using Airbnb and Lawrence made it a great experience. Our hotel got cancelled when we arrived in Austin so this was literally last minute for a week stay. He responded to a request within minutes and explained the process via messaging before I booked.

The condo is as described and as pictured. (Note for parents: it has a concrete floor & only a shower, no tub) It is centrally located in a safe and quiet area on the border of a residential neighborhood and a large park/event center. A bus stop is literally out front (not noisy) if you prefer public transit, while a gravel driveway offers easy parking for a rental car (as compared to the Austin hotels which seem to all charge daily parking fees)

Keypad access made for easy entry & exit without needing to swap keys. A Nest thermostat was simple to control and maintained a good temperature otherwise. The condo is a 1st floor unit surrounded by fencing & foliage so it is cool & dark (not a lot of light, if that matters to you but helps when it's 90+ outside)

We did not use the full kitchen except for the refrigerator and sink, but everything seemed in working order and dinnerware & cooking utensils were available.

The TV has plenty of channels & the wifi is blazing fast. Austin has Google Fiber, which seems to have put pressure on Time Warner to kick up their speeds a notch. This is the fastest wifi I have ever used (as tested by Speedtest.net) -- a plus for any business traveler or even just checking Yelp to figure out where to get BBQ next. Speaking of food there are a handful of food trucks and restaurants within walking distance (blocks) and the famous "Bat Bridge" which you'll want to visit at dusk. Everything else is a 5-15 minute drive. Our entire vacation it seemed you could get anywhere from this condo within 10 minutes. It's a great spot.
