I was fortunate enough to stay in this condo for a month after learning about it from Nitin, one of its co-owners (who also owns another fantastic Airbnb condo in the same building that I stayed in). The owners, who include Nitin, Shruti, and her husband Purkash, are all truly wonderful and will work tirelessly to ensure that all of your expectations and needs are met and exceeded. They even welcomed me to their new condo with a delicious batch of Tiff's Treats (a favorite Texas cookie delivery company). They checked in with me throughout my stay but always ensured that I was given ample space and privacy. I honestly couldn't have asked for better hosts.
The Building:
The building is brand new and absolutely beautiful. All the staff are superb – always friendly, welcoming, and extremely helpful. The condo comes with (and actually requires) 24hr valet parking which will be free throughout your stay with the owners parking pass. Its located in the most fantastic area, not only right downtown but also abutting the gorgeous, scenic Lady Bird Lake who's trail is in its backyard. Just around the corner from the building is a great bodega/coffee shop, pizza place, swanky restaurant, and all the outdoor bars that make Rainey St famous. Of course there's the fantastic roof-top pool complete with a view that will make this place better than most hotels you've probably ever stayed in. A small note... Because its brand new, the building itself is still undergoing some final construction so not every last thing is completed (like the new coffee shop/bar planned for the lobby) but these are only additional perks and nothing at all that is necessary. There is also some construction going on for the neighboring new condos but this noise is faint and wasn't bothersome to me at all.
The Space:
The condo itself it located high up on the 27th floor with a scenic view of Austin's fabulous greenery and a great (partial) view of the lake. There is a large bedroom with a king bed and its own flatscreen TV (2 in the condo) and a large bathroom with walk-in closet attached. All the electronics throughout the space are also brand new and top-notched. Although I was initially a little worried about the amount of storage space in the kitchen/living room area given my longterm stay, this actually wasnt a problem at all. The owners, furthermore, went above and beyond and provided me with all the cleaning products imaginable – which I absolutely loved.
All in all, you cannot go wrong with a stay at this Airbnb. Of course the condo is amazing... thats a given. But for me, the owners and all the employees at Natiivo are what made my stay memorable and extraordinary. Thank you to everyone!
