Ames' place is in a nice neighbourhood in Austin, it's very picturesque. I appreciated the opportunity to stay at the studio and was grateful for Ames' quick responses to any communication. However, as I outlined to the hosts privately, I feel that the studio is quite underwhelming and basic, particularly for the amount being charged per night. The cleanliness and facilities are lacking. For example, the condition of the bedding and towels are worn and old, the one air conditioning unit struggles to keep the unit cool in the Texas heat and the kitchen is essentially a toaster oven and a camping style hob. The recommendations for eating and drinking around the neighbourhood were great and as newcomers to the city, we were grateful for these.
