So the location is near the convention center, about 1/4 mile to 6th street and 1/2 mile to Rainey Street- which was great for us. I've been to Austin many times, however this time I was shocked by the amount of homeless ppl. The entire building was run down- peeling paint, fountains not working, mildew on stones, trash, however gates did work. The unit it self- had a sitting area in front of door- for your morning coffee. Self check in was easy ( checkin directions sent 3 months in advance. You need to turn on bathroom light so you can find the lamp on the other side of living room to turn on. Now the pictures give you an idea of the unit- except there was a REALLY good photographers. I honestly felt like I was in a bachlor pad, which is not what I was expecting from a "hotel". This unit- needs major updating- the bedding ( linens and matteress)- was years beyond needing to be tossed, many of the plates and bowls had chips and cracks and there was only ONE coffee cup in the whole place we literally had to go buy our own... Kitchen NOT well stock to be able to cook a meal. Baseboards were dirty, the curtains had a white stain- reminded me of sweat stain, the paint was peeling in areas, the vents were rusted, the laundry closet was gross and hard to use and closet doors covered the stackable until 1/2 way- so you could barely open dryer, some of the towels & wash cloths had brown stains on them- I was glad I had brought my own face cloth. The pillow in the closet- had brown stains on them ( didn't look at my own pillow I was afraid to know), the mattress cover when I striped the bedsheets the last day- literally had hair on it... which totally grossed me out. The place was just dirty and need a LOT of maintence- felt like it hadn't been fixed in years. Needless to stay - this will not be my go to place to stay. I know the owner/manager has many places, which I've rented before - however after this stay I will no longer book any rooms with him, apparently they've gone downhill. So if you are planning of getting smashed- then this unit property won't bother you, becuase you won't remember it. However for me- I won't forget it for a long time.
