A few points about my family’s stay are below.
1) The place is clean, except for a few cups that look to have been subtly kissed by a prior lipstick wearing resident. Coffee is supplied, as are the necessaries for such a beverage. There are plenty of items like towels, plates, kitchen utensils, blankets, pillows and everything else a home would need.
2) The location is great and close to the stuff you’ll want to do in Austin.
3) The check in process involves reading through several excruciating pages of material - 7 to be exact. This material includes outdated photos that the author asks you to study to ensure proper entry. While this is excessively painful, it does create a somewhat enjoyable scavenger hunt for your room. Surprisingly, there’s no up charge for this feature.
4) The key situation is like a scene from the movie Saw. Let’s play a game - you have three keys, only one of which works. Which one is it? Will you be stuck outside forever? Or will you easily pass through all checkpoints?
5) The games continue when you open the blinds, which do an excellent job of blocking out the morning sun. This easily allows you to sleep in. That said, when it is time to open the blinds, you may face a surprise attack from the valance. My foot was unprepared for suck an attack, which exposed my son to profanity.
6) Should you need to call Kasa, I wish you Godspeed in your journey. I called them and pressed a prompt for a call back. This generates an error message. Additionally, I sent a text to a number that is listed in the room as Kasa’s number, only to be told it’s a wrong number. I suppose this could be an extension of the aforementioned scavenger hunt. Once again, no up charge.
In conclusion, I’ll probably just stay in a hotel next time.
