Alex's home was exactly as pictured. It is a no-frills house in East Austin that accommodates a lot of people. I stayed in Alex's home with 8 girls total and we all had our own beds. We had everything we needed for the long weekend in Austin but be wary that you'll likely have to Uber everywhere. We also felt like we were in a safe area.
Alex was very accommodating with letting my friends and I store our luggage in the home after check-out as we had a late flight back to NY.
Overall, I would recommend Alex's home and would definitely come back.
