Austin Guesthouse was generally clean, but the microwave was so dirty it smelled rotten. The fridge was not cold, was visibly dirty and smelled like mold. There was nothing to dry hands with in the shared bathroom. The shower was in the same room as the microwave and fridge(behind a non locking glass wall) It was very hot, and without air conditioning, there was no relief or sleep. The pictures on Hotels site show many comfortable places to relax, but in reality, I was only given my room with a kitchen chair to sit on. There was a row of child gates between the hosts living room and the entryway where my room was. The host said to keep the cat in the living room? Host were generally pleasant but I felt like they were lurking outside my room and they told me I didn't need to lock my room when I left because they were watching the entry area all the time...were there cameras? There were rules posted all over, even hanging from the light in the entry outside my door...my head hit it when I walked under it, and I'm 5ft 3. Time limit for shower, food prep specifically only that which can go in a microwave. I read I wasn't allowed food in my room but there is also no where to sit and eat outside my room. I didn't see the excessive rules posted on hotels so didn't vacate 11 to 4. I left from 1120 to almost 3 and the host did not get upset. It was an uncomfortable place to stay not due to furniture but due to the hosts excessive requirements/rules and their creepy lurking.
