Really clean and just as pictured! Didn’t get to use the backyard but the setup is really beautiful. Sad I didn’t dip in the cowboy pool! Very responsive thoughtful host. Private, quiet, great east austin location. I live in austin and needed a place to stay in my neighborhood while renovations were being done on my house—this was the perfect weekend home away from home!

Very clean, nice, and modern property, and a great location, very close to downtown and everything you want to do but still in a nice, safe, quiet neighborhood. Loved that it is pet friendly, our two small doggies were very comfortable, There were also several nice touches from the host, including luggage racks (loved that, not many hosts provide!), available closet and drawer space, towels for the cowboy pool, and a nespresso machine with even some pods! While the house instructions may seem like a lot at first, they really just tell you how to best use certain things in the house as this is also the host’s home, and I’d rather have that than risk breaking something or not know how to use it. We didn’t get to use the backyard much as we had our own activities planned outside the home, but seemed to have all you might need.
