Beautiful and super clean
Beautiful property, super clean and conveniently located close to downtown and the UT campus. The property had eveyrhing you can think of. Location was great and super close to UT where I had a conference to attend. The surrounding area is a bit up and coming , there was a lot or homeless people at the park across the street, so just stay vigilant and safe. .

Super nice interiors but misleading location
Let me start by saying the interiors, and the structure and the proximity of this place to downtown was amazing. However, the outdoor street view images are misleading. It shows a lovely residential street but in reality it’s backed up in the alley to a parking lot, which is the home to approximately 50 homeless people at any moment in time. Even though we were not bothered, it would’ve still been nice to know that this is the current situation at this listing. Especially if you are traveling by yourself. Other than that, the interiors, the furniture, the cleanliness, and the amenities were great.

After a rough start, the stay was phenomenal! It’s quiet, convenient to all downtown and shops close by, and had everything we needed. It’s close to HEB as well. We would stay here again if we return for activities downtown.

Missing air mattress
Everything was perfect, EXCEPT that place is not for 4 people, unless you set up everything for the extra people, that place it’s design only for two. There were no enough place to locate the air mattress, now pillows no sheets, blankets or whatever we gonna use for the extra bed. I recommend you to use a sofa bed, and small air mattress. And make sure you have everything for 2 extra people. Thanks anyway for the service that the platform provided, the issue with the mattress was fixed the second night. The rest with the house was perfect thanks

Vacasa property manager terrible
No beddings available for futon and air mattress for my two adult children. I called Vacasa management 4 times in 24 hrs till somebody could give me the code for the locked closet with beddings. A bag of beddings arrived on the doorstep on the third day of 4. Owner supplied beddings for us every day herself

Convenient Location to Nightlife!
Pros - Nice place: impressed with double secure entries plus garage, good amenities (bath products, K-cups, creamers), quality pillows, futon/couch, window view of Austin high-rises. Right across the street great breakfast & coffee @ Cenote. La BBQ 1 mile. Reasonable (half to 1 mile) walking distance or rideshare (ZTrip or Uber - check prices) to 6th St (the nicer part, but did check out "Dirty 6th"), bars & food places, food trucks, The White Horse East Austin Honky Tonk, cocktail bars, beer joints, live music, as well as Rainey St. bars & food trucks. Walkable to a mini Target & Whole Foods. We had a car so could drive to further sites - South Congress, Capitol Building, Breweries, & restaurants on our list. Cons - Maybe because it was 2nd week of SXSW - construction, street closures, traffic, know most street parking is unavailable for a variety of reasons. Be aware if you are a light sleeper: the alley faces a busy street (Cesar Chavez). As the weekend approached, it became busier & noisier with traffic, street people, & sirens. Yes, there were homeless sleeping in the grass & getting food handouts in the parking lot of the library where our windows faced, but for the most part, the street people did not bother us even when walking to our destinations. However, one man was particularly loud on Thursday night at 2 a.m. shouting (to no one) so loudly & quite frequently from the street corner for a half-hour, I'm surprised he did not rupture an aneurysm. IMO - Low water pressure in shower & takes a while to heat up. Overall - This is a very good rental. The pros outweighed the cons, & we had a good experience. It was convenient & we would likely stay again now that we figured out where everything is & how to get around to avoid traffic.

Austin Exploring
Overall the property is great, clean, and has everything one needs for a short term or long term stay! My only real qualm/disappointment was that the couch was broken the living room essentially making the living area out of commission for hanging out or relaxing. Other than this inconvenience, I’d recommend this place and would stay again if it was fixed. Great access to everything the city of Austin has to offer. The other thing I want to address is the previous reviews about homeless camps - those don’t exist anymore other than near the highway. However there is a soup kitchen near by that caters to the local population for breakfast and lunch. That being said safety was never an issue for me and my partner once we understood why there were lines of people congregating.

Perfect for young couples!
The space was sparkling clean and a short walk to 6th street and downtown. Plenty to access within the walk of a mile. There is a "tent city" with homeless people outside of the apartment that we were unaware of prior to booking. Everyone was friendly and minded their own business, but at some times you could hear yelling and verbal altercations occurring. This would have been good to know ahead of time. The space is comfortable and very clean. The hot water takes a bit to heat up - but good to go after that! The entry to the home was easy and felt very safe and secure.

Always a relief to walk through the door to our home away from home!
Overall, we loved this property. It was so simple, so clean, so stylish. It was within easy walking distance to downtown and especially to Rainy Street and 6th Ave. Having such proximity to these spots is a real plus of this accommodations. It was easy to catch a bus from a stop just a few steps away too. We certainly used this bus stop to travel throughout the city. We walked a lot too, and had no problem doing that from this location. We always felt great to return home from a busy day of meetings, or the fun we were having in Austin. The place had such a great feel. The bed was excellent, and we slept really well while we stayed in this property. This property was set up with an ironing board, and a great kitchen. Very little in the way of coffee or anything extra was supplied. A more significant grocery store was approximately 1.5 miles away. Smaller grocery stores were just a few blocks away. That said, the Austin cuisine is so fun, we did not cook any meals at home. Cenote restaurant across the street is excellent for breakfast. The only other thing worth mentioning is that our bus driver told us to, "be careful in this neigborhood," but we felt totally safe here the whole time, despite a few homeless people in the area. The folks we met were 100% friendly!! Wonderful spot. Would stay here again, any time!!

Austin vacation
This property was clean and well taken care of. It was decorated very cute. It had the perfect amount of space for my husband and me. It was located very close (walking distance or a quick drive) to Rainey Street, 6th Street (enjoyed East 6th Street and Rainey), and downtown Austin. There was so much to do within a 30-40 mile drive of Austin we were never bored. It was also great to have a garage to park in since we rented a car. The property manager was great to work with and responded very quickly to any questions we had and even called one day to follow up that everything was going OK. We would definitely stay again.
