Screened-in Porch | Walkable to SoCO

A bro house inhabitable only by male undergraduates. None of the closets had racks to actually hang clothes. The master bedroom had a couple shelves instead of a chest of drawers. The dishwasher broke down.

We enjoyed our stay and found several things that made the experience comfortable and enjoyable, along with a few areas that could be improved.Positives:The location is great and the neighborhood is very quiet, which made for a peaceful stay. The layout of the house is nice and functional, and the beds were very comfortable. All basic cooking utensils were available, which made meal prep easy. The cooling system works perfectly, and the hot water gets very hot, which was a big plus.Negatives:There were no hanging rods in any of the clothes so nowhere to hang clothes. There was no iron to use; however, there was an ironing board. Additionally, there were several old and worn outdoor furniture pieces that made them unsafe to use. Suggestions:Adding throw blankets would increase comfort in shared spaces. Bathroom floor mats or towels for stepping out of the shower would be helpful.Overall, this is a nice property with strong potential. With a few thoughtful additions, it would make for an excellent stay.

Host was responsive. The house was the perfect house for our group. Home is in a quiet neighborhood. I would definitely stay there again.

The house was in a convenient location and quiet neighborhood.

Pros: safe neighborhood, good location, nice screened-in porch to enjoy fresh air without bugsCons: poorly maintained, dishwasher overflowed onto the floors, extremely cheap towels and bedding, no rugs or carpet on any of the floors, laundry room was in a dirty back closet, and we had to kill a roach! The iron in the vrbo stained a dress with a gross brown goo that came out of it after heating up. Not the quality stay I'd expect from a VRBO. Shame as this is a great location with enough space for 4-6 people to stay comfortably

The house is centrally located within minutes from South Congress in a quiet residential neighborhood. It is well stocked and extremely clean. Communication with the hosts is easy and they are very responsive. We will stay there again when we’re back in Austin

This stay was very disappointing. Although the house was in a great location, and the layout was really good, there were so many maintenance things that were overlooked and annoying-* No hanging bars in 2 of the 3 closets. I noticed this was commented on 2 years ago!! And still not fixed- why?* Broken faucet in kitchen, and loose faucet in bathroom. Cleaners must’ve noticed that!* Water to fridge not hooked up, so no water or ice, and no ice cube trays.* Slider to screen porch would’nt lock, even after maintenance guy came out.*Toilet paper holder falling off in bathroom. Again, that was in a previous review and still not fixed.* Although I appreciate having basic condiments available, there was a used jar of peanut butter in the cabinet- gross!I learned this property management company owns about 50 houses in the area. Maybe have fewer and maintain the ones you have. I am a 5 star host on this platform, and running a business the way Grand Welcome Rentals Austin does is a shame. Clearly, it’s just about the bottom line, and not about hospitality.But companies like that don’t care.

Stayed Sept. 2025 in this home in excellent location near SoCo. An older home with modern kitchen and bath upgrades and minor issues such as patio door to porch did not lock, faucets loose, no closet rods, queen br mattress needs replaced, several lights not working. A complete interior repaint would add much to the unit. The screen porch was a nice bonus. Overall a good place to stay. Completing the finishing touches would make it excellent. Would stay here again.

Every night when i went to bed i slept as good as i do at my own home. Every bit of it felt comforting. The AC was amazing! But becareful it had a 68 temp programmed for the night after 930 i would switch it back to my temp. Stand up shower was great, had good pressure. Unfortunately we did not use the sceened in area. But the few minutes i was outside was nice. Would stay here again in the future. I would mention that i only seen one fire alarm. I did see the brackets but the alarms were missing. The tub seemed to be a little clogged. We got a lot of rain on our stay, so walking out the water would fall right on our heads from the door canopy, i would recommend putting a gutter or some type of water catch to divert the water to the sides. Overal great location less than 10 minute drive to restaurants, stores, gas, etc

The house was accommodating for our family as it had two master bedrooms which worked well, however one of the king mattress's desperately needs to be replaced! :( It was so broken down that the sides were splayed, and I felt like I had to crawl out of a hole just to get out of it. We very much enjoyed the screened patio as it gave us extra room for meals at the dining table. The location was nice and convenient and we enjoyed walks around the neighborhood.
