Austin Stay
The place was very nice. It was clean and spacious. The location was close to downtown. The owner was friendly and helpful. The only thing that was not great was the neighborhood. It is near a soup kitchen which brought in a lot of homeless people. We were safe behind a locked gate however, I did feel uncomfortable at times.

AVOID AT ALL COSTS
My doubts were raised by taxi driver who questioned why i was staying in such an area of Austin. He dropped me off at the property - i walked across car park to back alley as instructed - two seemingly homeless people were asleep, surrounded by beer cans in car park and I was approached and confronted by two aggressive homeless guys demanding money - both were either drunk or stoned - and this was 3pm!!. Got into property okay and it was fine but area was horrible - witnessed several other homeless and what appeared to be drug deals in car park from the window and decided this place was not for me so booked a hotel and left after 30min - informed property agents and got a bland auto-reply So expensive stay - paid full price for 30 minutes in apartment and full price for three nights in hotel - please adjust description so no one else faces this nightmare

The keypad lock was very problematic and directions on how to use it were incomplete. Exiting the property at 4:30 AM I almost ran over a homeless man sleeping outside the gate in the alley. If you could see the dynamics of the parking / gate and alley, you'd see how this could happen. In addition, the individual was sleeping directly in front of the outside key pad I had to access to close the gate.

Great little hideaway!!
We loved our stay and loved the accommodations! The owner is there on-site and super nice and helpful but not intrusive at all. Nice parking with a gate so you don't have to fight for parking! We will definitely stay again. I hate hotels!

Gem in East Austin
My husband and I stayed in this lovely place for 12 days. Great location — a few minutes drive to downtown and walking distance to restaurants, the CVS and Whole Foods. The cottage had everything we needed: full kitchen with ultra-quiet dishwasher, high ceilings and a beautiful huge shower (especially for my six-foot-three husband), lots of closet space and hangers, a CD player so we could play all the music we bought at Waterloo Records, and secure parking. John, the owner, is super friendly and gave us tips about what to see and do in the neighbourhood. A great place to stay.

Work and fun in Austin
I came to Austin for a conference downtown and wanted to do some fun things as well. This guest house was perfect. The independence from a hotel was delightful and the house offered all we could need. This is a very urban experience, but that is obvious from the location, and overall it was a refreshing change from home. The local community can look a little daunting with million dollar homes juxtaposed with very modest homes and homeless folks, but this clearly is a rapidly growing community and a place struggling with the growth like many locations. We had no problems, but a car which made an important and very positive difference. Watch out for getting caught in $50/day downtown parking for your event! I would definitely stay again. Thank you!

Great unit, slightly rough neighborhood
The unit itself is perfect, very well done and everything you need. The neighborhood was slightly disappointing, but location and unit were as advertised.
