Pros: Location was great in the East side of town, short walk to restaurants/bars in that area and short walk to Rainey Street. The beds and the couch were comfortable and provided enough room for all guests.
Cons: I had concerns about this place after I booked as the reviews subsequently were poor. I messaged David in regards to these concerns (specifically people complained about the broken internet, lack of hot water, not enough bath towels, dirty pool) and he assured me (after two days of waiting for a response) these issues would be fixed upon my arrival -- of which, half were fixed... the water was hot, but could scald someone if you weren't careful; the internet didn't work; the pool was dirty; there were, however, enough bath towels. I messaged him on our arrival notifying him of the internet and didn't receive a response from him all weekend. I've NEVER had a host just not respond during my stay if I had a concern/question.
In addition to these issues, there was a kitchen chair laying in the dining room -- completely broken. One of the bathroom windows was broken/wouldn't shut/lock. I found this to be somewhat of a safety concern. The front window panes outside of the living room had been broken in multiple places. The shower head in the bathroom that with the broken window was utterly terrible, poor flow/sprayed in random directions. The house holds up to 16 people, yet does not have enough kitchenware to serve that amount of people (I think it might have had 8 glasses and 1 coffee mug); luckily, we didn't need to cook.
Minus the few pros, this place is pricey and not worth the bang for the buck -- I wouldn't book here again.
