One of the things that captured my attention while looking for a place to stay while in the Austin area were other peoples reviews of places they’ve stayed at. Reid’s place had excellent reviews, unfortunately my stay was anything but excellent. For starters check in is unusually late at 5pm (Kinda a drag when you’ve been driving for 9 hours and all you want to do is rest). Also, while Reid did mention his cat, his ad also states how his cat spends most of its time in the garage…. well no his cat actually roamed throughout the house as he pleased throughout my entire stay. I really don’t have a problem with the cat or Reid’s decision to allow his cat to roam around the way he did; my only question is why even mention how his cat is mostly always in the garage…. and worse yet after my having notified him of the unfortunate fact that I am allergic to cats. The restroom! Mold yes the shower curtain was completely full of mold! That definitely caught me by surprise given that there is no way anyone could have missed that when cleaning the restroom. Last but definitely not least, as a matter a fact this is probably what bothered me the most. The heater, the heater was off and all night with room temperatures inside my tiny room at a non stop 80 degrees all night. Such kept me up all night. Finally at around 6 am I messaged him and thankfully he turned it off. I probably slept for 3 hours that night given that I had a job interview that day (hence the reason why I was in town). While I am not in anyway referring to Reid as a bad person unfortunately my experience was anything but good. I wish Reid the best, I hope he continues to sell out and if anything take this as a learning/time to make some changes experience.
