Although the apartment is in an older section of town, as viewing the site on mapping programs will show, the apartment has been completely renovated and seems like a place out of the 2020s. It has new and modern appliances, flooring, millwork and furniture.
The reason I didn't give it 5 stars overall is mainly due to the fact that the clothes washer, which has failed working, is in the process of being replaced. Also, there were some other minor issues which Alex began addressing within minutes of my communications with him.
Alex was attentive, really concerned about the well-being of his tenants, and totally trustworthy. And he had done a good job on the remodel. It's a good place, especially when you consider the price of housing in Austin.
