8 / 10Excellent·Dec 2025
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.

6 / 10Average·Oct 2025
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.
