Okay so, I can genuinely say I am totally happy to write this review and leave my opinion. I stayed in the sunroom and first I’ll comment on the utility of the room itself. I have to say it was exactly perfect for my needs. There was a mini fridge, a microwave, a toaster, a little space heater for when it got cold, and a built in AC for when it got warm. Plenty of storage available in the room. A chair and a little table that tucks neatly into the corner if you need to do some work. The rest of the house is kept nice and clean and the kitchen is very accessible for making meals. If you are open to having great chats in the living room and enjoy socializing it’s also the place for you!
Now, specifically to comment about Vania. I could not have met a nicer person to start my journey in Austin with. She was always accommodating and generous with her time and her house. If you are a reasonable, kind, and respectful person; you will get along great with her. I truly believe she wants the best for the guests who come in and out of her house. If you are not a social person, I know she is also respectful of that but I think it would be a mistake not to try to make a connection with her. She is kind. She is cool. Her advice was always welcomed. And she has great recommendations for food in the area (always a plus) Haha.
Finally, she has two adorable cats who are so warm and friendly. I was so impressed and genuinely enjoyed their company as well.
For me, staying in an Airbnb is a situation that you need to be willing to be around others and be respectful of common spaces so everyone can coexist in harmony. After all, you are literally living in someone else’s house. You have to be respectful of that. If you feel the same way, you should enjoy your time here. :)
