Brenner was extremely responsive. Great neighborhood. Clean house. Easy access. It isn’t in the nightlife area of Austin. But I was not looking for that. It is in a neighborhood adjacent to Zilker Park (great hikes and kayaking, did both). Excellent restaurants, live music and one of my favorite movie theaters are all within walking distance. Opa coffee and wine bar, Saxon Pub, Uchi, Alamo Drafthouse, original Chuy’s are all within walking distance. Felt very safe.
My issues: at this price point, very small pool should absolutely be heated. Bedrooms are small. No TV in master. Third floor (4th bedroom) is wasted empty space and that should at least have a sleeper sofa in it (and appeared to have been skipped by cleaning crew, trash in trash can and urine in toilet). A bit too modern. Ceiling fan remote for master missing and fan on high. Slept on couch first night because I didn’t realize until late I couldn’t turn it off and didn’t want to bother Brenner at midnight.
