This cottage is lovely, and Ann, the host, has appointed it with all that you need for a nice stay in Austin. The problem was that the house could not be heated above 55oF under cold conditions outside. At 18oF (admittedly unusually cold for Austin), the house could only warm to 55oF; at 32oF (not so unusual), it could only warm to 60oF. Neither is a reasonable indoor temperature for sleeping, showering, living, etc. (Ann called a technician to look at the system – he said the problem was insulation, so we expect this may also be a problem in summers (unable to cool sufficiently). We had to leave and find other accommodations. While Ann offered a studio apartment as a substitute, we were unhappy with the small refund she proposed to offset the difference between a studio and the house (with two bedrooms, a full kitchen, full bath, and living room). Airbnb refunded us for only 4 nights (and none of the fees, taxes, etc.) although we had only ONE night in the house.
