.. offer a thousand words, but no upload area available, so believe the ☆'s
Experience: I've never Ever used Airbnb in life. I kept being told to try bcz i wld save money, better than hotels etc - LIES - most the places i saw/found online are =/less quality than hostels I've staid at + over $2k more.
Communication: Nancy was ok, quick to try, but dumb stuff kept happening (bugs, elec, mail etc). Other than that don't feel free to move anything & make yourself at home.. you'll get chewed out. Lol
Smells: imagine mothballs, molds, in a facility full of poorly cleaned elderly. Bleach & ammonia didn't work. Blamed for my perfume i didn't have.
Comfort: i brought my own pillows & linen, so i was able to use the many comforters available to create a mattress pillow top. Also, Ordered Puzzles bcz there's no TV. (bad idea mailing stuff.. so suggest you bring it with you)
Pricing: i thought it was overpriced. But it was $500 cheaper than the hotels, with a great location, so i tried it. Paid daily for carwasher bcz of Thick Mounds of sticky tree sap. Then i saw the price almost double with the rest of Austin come Oct.
Likes: The hidden location, 3-6mls from most of Austin's gems you definitely want to check out -The rental bikes are always near, so you don't need to drive. The movies 1.5mls are 2x the cost of a 3mls theater. Bowling is 3mls, Mall 3mls the other way, Lakes are about 2mls, Lebanese Food truck (north) is better than the Jamaican ones i craved, & the Cuban, Chinese & Pizza 3-5mls away are better than the ones around the corner (just FYi).
To each it's own
