Overall the unit is exactly looks just like the pictures and how it's described in the listing. The apartment building is pretty old and reminds you of dorm rooms but once inside the unit the place is perfect for yourself and a few guests. It's off 6th street which can be loud, especially on weekends.

The apartment has an excellent location if you don't mind being centrally located downtown. You're right off the famous 6th street where there are tons of bars and restaurants. It's a 10-15 minute walk to both East and West 6th which offer different bar and restaurant scenes. Quick cab to Barton Springs, Zilker Park and South Congress areas.

We did have a few issues with the apartment and the host. After entering the room and putting our bags down, we noticed a very large cricket/bug in the bathroom sink. The place had a strict no smoking policy but smelt like someone has smoked in the unit that morning. After removing the bug we thought we'd be okay. We left the apartment and went out for some food. When we came back, one of us took a shower and was greeted by two other beetles/bugs in the shower. After that, we found another two bugs in the middle of the night in one of the beds. We contacted the host who immediately contacted us back saying she'd try and relocate us. I did request a refund that morning for the first night due to the conditions and bugs and was denied right away.

We ended up getting relocated to another unit down the hall (Every unit on the floor was managed by Top Trip Rentals). We were worried there was a problem with the building and bugs and that was the case. Upon moving to the new room, we ended up discovering another 5-8 bugs throughout the apartment. Another thing to note, is due to the location of the apartment building, you get a very rowdy and loud crowd. Out of our four night stay, we were woken up on at least 3 different occasions to other guests in the apartment complex.

Overall, I would not stay here again for obvious reasons mentioned above. To top off the trip, we received a call when we arrived back in Chicago saying there were issues with our stay and someone had discharged the fire extinguisher in the apartment building. There were at least 15-20 other guests in the building and no one in our party had any involvement.

If your looking for a grimey apartment on dirty 6th, this is your spot.
