Benjamin was a great and accommodating host and was quick to respond to my messages. Also, his poodle is ADORABLE and a total sweetheart.
The bus was a fun and quirky Austin-esque place to stay. It was easy to access and was easy enough to travel to bars, restaurants, etc.
There was some mold in the shower and around the a.c., so if you have allergies or a mold sensitivity, I wouldn’t recommend this place. We were out and about all day, and would just sleep there so it didn’t really bother us. There’s also a bit of a mildewy smell which wasn’t the greatest, but we got over it.
Something I hadn’t thought about before was being able to lock up our personal items. When we left the bus for the day, there wasn’t a way to lock it up, which made me a little nervous.
All in all, it worked out well for a cheap, last-minute experiential Airbnb. If you’re looking for the pampering and comfort of a hotel, this isn’t the place for you. If you want the signature “weird” Austin experience, I highly recommend the land yacht.
