Was perfect for our family of 3 and enough for 4 or 5. Big enough back yard for our puppy to play. Convenience store next door. Clean and operational. Owner was quick to respond to questions.
The vrbo was perfect for my visit to Austin, it was close and convenient to my daughter's house, local stores and restaurants. It is close to a busy street but I knew that being familiar with the area. Our host was very responsive the couple of times we reached out. It fit the bill perfectly for our needs!
Recently updated, but needs a little work. Size is fine for two people, four would be okay for a short stay. Location is very loud. Traffic on Brodie is constant and cars drag race at night so it is VERY loud. Gas station was having work done so jackhammers were going for hours several nights during our stay, but doubt that would be true long term.
Overall this was good enough. Unfortunately, the house is more run down than the pictures let on, and has aged slightly. The bathroom was not quite as clean as the photos show. My biggest issue, however, is that the pictures show a usable backyard, but when we arrived the grass was so tall I didn't feel comfortable letting my dog off his leash for fear that there could be snakes or something else in the grass I couldn't see. The area also doesn't seem to be the safest. Like I said, overall it got the job done, and it was one of the cheapest VRBOs available in the area and I see why. If you're looking for a cheap stay and don't mind some minor inconveniences, this is fine.
Cute Space / Needs Improvements on Cleanliness & Safety
Y'all would benefit from sealing that back door. There were roaches probably from that back door having a huge gap in it. We left one on the floor so y'all can see we weren't just making bugs up from a review. Also if y'all expect dishes to be washed you should leave a clean sponge and not a nasty smelly one and you should also put in the description that the "cleaning fee" does not cover dishes. The sink had someone's prior shavings when we arrived. Clearly whoever is cleaning if not providing a good service. It was just gross.
