Brooks was a very good host and responded very quickly. The house was very nice and had lots of character. As it turns out it could have been a little cleaner as there was some dead insects around different parts of the home, as well as moth cocoons in one of the bedrooms. The grass was not cut but this was not a huge issue as we spent most of the time inside or around the city. The air condition was not a strong as we would have liked it but then again this is an older home. With that being said one of the toilets in the hallway had issues flushing. I did let Brooks know about my concerns and he was very apologetic and accommodating. If I were to plan another trip to Austin, I would definitely give this spot another try before I make a definitive decision.
