Les points forts : Arrivée, communication, exactitude de l’annonce
Deferred maintenance, nice host
The good: The host was very responsive and accommodating. The location is good if you plan to be out and about most of your stay. This property is OK for people who don’t care too much about cleanliness and comfort.
The surprising: The condition of the property reflects deferred maintenance (disrepair), from the stairs (erosion, wood rot) to the plumbing (faulty drainage, leaks) to the ceiling light (broken) to the floorboards (not correctly installed/cracks). Although the cleaning crew made some special decorative touches with the towels, I was surprised to find quite a bit of hair from previous guests in the bed, bathroom and closet; dirt in various corners; and leftover (dirty/broken) kids’ toys, half-used tubes of toothpaste, and odd food items (open packages of flour, sugar, spices etc.). Some of the furniture was stained and broken. The roach bait by the front door was not a good sign, as both the front and back door had large cracks between the door frames and the doors. The balcony and backyard showed neglect/debris and were by no means cozy.
Bottom line: For young folks who want a “camping”-type experience with running water, this is a place not far from Austin nightlife/bars. For people looking for a motel-caliber of cleanliness, with well maintained amenities, I suggest asking the host for one of their alternative, upgraded properties. If you have difficulty at all with steep and/or rickety stairs, please look for a more ADA-friendly place.
