Downtown Condo

The condo is probably 3 decades old and needs to be refurbished. The views of downtown Austin are amazing, especially from the terrace. But note that there are many, many stairs to get up to the condo and to move around within it.

We had a great stay. Mgmt was very good at response times when we needed something. You should be aware that there are lots of stairs at this property, both to access the front door and to get to the living area once inside. Anyone with any limitations should take that into consideration.

Fell short

The unit is cute and was laid out perfectly for our group's needs. We loved the space and balconies. However, the 2nd bedroom is stuffy with air conditioning issues. It is obviously a known problem because the room has a portable air conditioning unit. Unfortunately, it did not help to keep the room cool. The air conditioning for the main bedroom also went out on our last night. There is a sign that says not to set the unit below 65º or it will freeze up. We had it set at 71º, so that was not the problem. Because we did not discover that it was broken until late in the evening (11ish) and we were leaving early the next morning, we chose to email the property manager instead of calling. We also emailed about a lost earring the next morning after we checked out. Neither has been acknowledged, and it's been 24 hours since we checked out. If the unit is owned by an individual, I hope they know the management company is falling short.

There was no stay, VRBO is clueless.

This is a second draft of this review because VRBO rejected the first, saying that my draft “needed some work” before it could be posted. As a published author, well…. I'll bite my tongue after VRBO provided the redirection that might be expected of a third grade English teacher to a student whose homework fell short. It is VRBO that falls short in this case. Our booking at this property was cancelled well in advance of the starting date. The property owner acknowledged as much and responded appropriately, issuing a full refund as per terms of our booking agreement. I have no complaints, except to share that VRBO was clueless about the changes. So here I am, responding to VRBO’s request to review a property that I never laid eyes on. The property appears to be amazing, otherwise I wouldn't have booked it. But I can't give full affirmation of my star reviews of a property that I haven't laid eyes on. In short, ? stars (probably deserving of 5) for the property and 0 (that's ZERO) stars for VRBO for their cluelessness. If you’re reading this, you are probably familiar with the absurdity of the Yes/No question “have you stopped beating your wife yet?” Yet VRBO now requires 1-5 star ratings about an unseen condo in order for me to post my feedback about them… equally absurd. I’m trying to point out that VRBO and this property’s manager are out of touch. Instead of being acknowledged for having done so, I’m sent to the corner, to don a dunce cap and rewrite a review. I doubt this will get posted, but if you are reading this- I wouldn't hesitate to use VRBO service. Nothing is perfect. As a former Austinite now living elsewhere, I can assure anyone- this property is in a perfect location for indulging in all that Austin has to offer.

Maintenance desperately needed

The truth. This property has NOT been well maintained. The views are AMAZING! The location is AMAZING! The cleanliness is fine, the beds are fine, the showers are fine, the fridge works and we didn't try the TV's. Please know if that is all you care about go for it and you will be fine. Truly. But PLEASE READ if you are unable to go up and down A LOT of stairs do NOT rent this place. Up at least 3 flights of stairs with your luggage to front door and inside another three flights of stairs to kitchen and living room. It is like a tree house. I could not see some people being able to safely manage the stairs - older people or younger kids. MAIN ISSUES - the door locks are basically inoperable. Front door can't be opened with key pad. Had to call to get key lockbox code. Used key to open but every single time what to work very hard to get key out. Backdoor that opens to parking garage had NO working lock at all! Had to move two large tables in front of door for three women to be there safely. Unacceptable. I could get over many lights that are burned out, fans that don't work, sink that doesn't drain, running toilet, cockroaches in bathroom, ants in living room, stained furniture....those things can be managed. But I can't get over the safety issues of the door locks. Literally no working lock to backdoor. And front door lock is almost unusable. All this owner needs to do is hire a locksmith, exterminator, plumber, and handyman for a few hours and this could be a steller rental
