I spent 3 days in the Leo lodging. The bed has very comfortable sheets, not the usual short ones, the top one can be folded on the blanket. The house has been built recently, it is in the vicinity of Austin. The interiors are a nice departure from the regular middle-class Texas house. High ceilings and well-made windows. There is a pleasant sunlight from the outside, because the windows do not have Venetian blinds, only white curtains that let the sunlight in. There is a single large room divided in living room, dining room and kitchen (the one in the main picture). From the dining room there is access to the back yard, a small untended plot where middle-class Texas prevails, with a lawn and at the center a canvass covering something. There is a rosebush in dire need of pruning. Alas the bright interior that is such a winning accent sheds light on the poor cleaning of all the surfaces. The floors are grey and do not display much dirt, but the glass of the table shows the dust that would deposit over several days. As a mockery there is a sign inviting the guests to remove their shoes and to be considered of the other guests. Another sign in the kitchen invites to clean the dishes and put them in the dishwasher. Inside the dishwasher there is a veneer of mold that kills the appetite. There is not a drying rack. The only alternative is drying them with a cloth. The sink was in a pitiful condition when I arrived. Empty of dishes, with food residue and greasy.
The internet works well. The house is generally quiet, with occasional background of a TV kept at high volume somewhere. There is a camera pointed at the kitchen. I could not tell if it was on. Something did not work in the welcoming procedure. I was supposed to receive an email with instructions. No email was received. Not an issue since Leo answered my text message right away with the code.
