Elmer and Aspen the dog are great hosts! This home is in a great location close to everything you need in Austin. The neighborhood is quiet given the close proximity to everything and the neighbors are friendly!
Me and my dog cosmo stayed for about 5 nights but unfortunately on our 2nd day Elmer’s home got water damage 😓 and needed to be repaired asap. He was kind enough to offer a refund multiple times but I declined. This room was free from the damage and any work that needed to be done on the house. I was gone for most of the day for work so it was no bother to me at all. 🙂
Elmer was very accommodating and communicative. He works from home so he’s mostly on his computer working which means as a guest there is a ton of privacy. Aspen is a sweetheart and I loved being greeted by him every day I came back from work! 🥰 and my dog Cosmo loved being in the backyard!
As for the room, it is nice and private. It’s also very quiet so it’s easy to get some rest. The bed was comfortable. There is a ceiling fan and an air conditioner to keep cool. And I liked that this room has a desk so that I could use my computer for work as well. The bathroom was clean and I have NO complaints about bar soap!
Future guests should be mindful that this is someone’s home so be respectful to the rules 😉 I am grateful that it was opened up to me and my dog while we wait to move into our new home in June. This was a great stay given the unfortunate damage and needed repairs. Hopefully it gets fixed soon so that we may get a chance to stay again!
