Our experience mimics some of the more detailed reviews.
On the positive side, the apartment is clean, spacious, both the bed and couch are comfortable, and the washer/dryer units in the apartment worked well during our stay. It is also in a great active location, within walking distance to several bars and restaurants, and there’s a small grocery store across the street. Also, when we ran into two issues getting into our unit (once in our initial check in and once during our stay), the hosts were responsive to our messages/calls and resolved these issues quickly.
However, there are some things to be aware of. First, if you plan to stay over the weekend, there will be a lot of noise throughout the evening (both inside the building and from the street outside). It is an active area/neighborhood since it's located on 6th Street, so be aware that means there will be noise throughout the evening especially on the weekends (so light sleepers at a minimum should bring ear plugs). There is a noise curfew inside the building, but it does not seem to be enforced. Second, there were no darkening shades in the bedroom and it was extremely bright once sunrise started (so if you're sensitive to light when sleeping, bring a sleep mask with you, which we did). We also had a unit next to the food truck area by the apartment building, so the food truck area's lights were on until late in the evening each night and one night, the area forgot to turn off their main lights so the bedroom was bright for the entire evening. Third, the listing photos are generic photos of one unit (it seems like the hosts own several units in the complex) and, while the majority of our unit was similar to the listed unit photos, it may not be an exact layout of the one in the listing photos depending on which unit you're given during your visit (this is not a bad thing, just something to be aware of). Fourth, there was an error in their system that messed up our departure date and we were locked out of a room for a bit. As mentioned above, this was fixed quickly and the host was responsive when we called to notify them of this issue.
Overall, this is a nice apartment with nice amenities in an active area. But there are some things to keep in mind depending on the type of accommodations you need for your visit/trip to Austin.
