Clean, reasonably priced house, short drive to downtown.

Unit was very clean. Communication with Mike was great - he is very responsive to any questions or needs. House is just 10 minutes to Lady Bird Lake, and just 20 minutes to the center of downtown. Beds were comfortable. Full size fridge, plus a microwave. Large TVs in every room, with Netflix. Driveway parking. We enjoyed our family weekend in Austin.

Listen to me, if you're coming to Austin and want to stay in a clean home, in a quiet neighborhood that's close to H-E-B (my fave store!) and close to downtown, this is it!I was traveling alone with my 20-year-old daughter and 21-year-old nephew for a young professionals conference, and they LOVED the bunk beds. They said it reminded them of being little kids, and honestly, it made me feel so nostalgic too. The bunk beds weren’t your typical twins these were lile full-sized or something and were super spacious! The bed in the main room was incredibly comfortable, and every room had a TV (thank you!!). After a long day, we love winding down with a show and falling asleep, it was perfect.And let me tell you...after a long drive, there's nothing better than a nice, hot shower, and Sven’s Castle did NOT disappoint. I swear there’s a water softener in there because my skin felt amazing and the water was silky smooth.As a bonus, I actually got to meet Sven during checkout, he's not just a superstar host, he's handsome too! Next time we're in Austin from Houston, we’re absolutely booking this place again and I hope my husband can join us because I know he’d love it just as much.So impressed. 10/10 experience.

Glad it was a short trip

Well going in I did not know what to expect sharing a home. That’s what it felt like. First the passcode with the house was incorrect we had to call him in the middle of the night. The next morning the lawn mower he’s using wakes me up because it was right next to the window, Im just saying he could of waited till after we left. Oh and when I wake up he sends me a message about reminding me about the. Check out time. It just seemed he did not want us there.

We stayed here for a friend’s wedding and couldn’t have asked for a better spot. The place was clean, comfortable, and the pool was such an amazing bonus—it made our stay feel extra special. We made so many wonderful memories here. The hosts were kind, attentive, and checked in to make sure we had everything we needed. Highly recommend!

Great place for the family!

We stayed here for a family weekend getaway, and it was a great home away from home. Everything was very clean, and the host was great with communication. The beds were spacious and comfortable, and the rooms have fans, which is a big plus for me!! I'm so glad we opted for this instead of a hotel!
