    Beware of lying host cancelling reservation so they can jack up the price. I made a booking for a…read morecabin six months in advance through VRBO. 15 minutes later, the host messaged me to say, and I quote: "Dates booked on another platform. These dates are not available, i apologize." I had already checked on their own website and I knew that they still had cabins available, so I knew this was a lie. I then messaged back to tell them I was aware that they had cabins available on their own site, and but that the rates were much higher. I said that I had already received a confirmation through VRBO's 'instant booking' feature and that under VRBO policies, they were not allowed to cancel the reservation unless I had violated a policy - which I had not. I asked if they could confirm the booking and honor the VRBO rate. They then admitted that there were rooms available and claimed that it was VRBO's fault because those dates should have been blocked off and not allowed "instant booking." I know that what actually happened was that they knew these were in demand dates and that they were charging jacked up rates on their own site, and freaked when they saw I had reserved the dates for "normal rates" on VRBO, so they just unilaterally cancelled the reservation so they could find some sucker to pay the jacked up rates. The worst part, however, was the lying - they LIED and claimed "these dates are not available" and "dates booked on another platform." Those were both lies. Be very wary of dealing with the management of this place - they don't seem ethical or customer service friendly.

We met the owners and they were very gracious. The private lake and canoes and the tennis court were lots of fun and the location is close enough to Austin for visiting downtown yet far enough out to enjoy quiet star gazing. We found the beds to be to soft...we tried to different rooms sine we had the whole house, and they are very soft. Other than that we loved the place and the location. R. Bama

Nonostante is a like being a private little wooded valley resort yet being close to everything. We were attending a wedding in Driftwood and thought this place was to expensive but once we looked at what was near there (nothing) and the price of the econo-lodge it turns out not be expensive at all. The private lake was great for swimming, kayaking, fishing etc. The tennis court and the basket ball hoop kept the young at heart busy and rest of us lounged in the spacious, roomy, cozy home. The three living areas are great and we never felt crowded. The home is like something from Southern Living. It is so relaxing. The owner left us some of his home made moonshine and a bunch of cigars for the men for outside use.

    Did a search on Expedia for "pet friendly hotel" in Dripping Springs, TX. This hotel came up. I…read morebooked it. After my stay, I get a $108 bill for having a pet. My card was charged after I left, not before, not during, but after. This is underhanded if you ask me. Other than that, hotel was okay. Maybe a 2-star out of 5. The majority of clients seemed to be Spanish-speaking migrant workers. Breakfast was okay. Shower water regulator was so tight I do not recommend shampooing unless you have the time and patience to SLOWLY rinse it out (or leave with shampoo still in your hair). Would I book again? No way because they charge your card without your knowledge or approval. And you're just supposed to eat it because they can.

    Obviously this is a place a lot of people book for the night after a wedding. I thought the…read morefacility was very clean. Beds were comfortable. Breakfast is complimentary but setup now in a weird, order the night prior for pickup, I guess to limit groups accumulating. The "heated" indoor pool is in a nice room but definitely not heated. Summertime would probably heat the pool more if it were outdoors. I think my only complaint which some have stated before is the noise. The walls are thin and the doors are the heaviest things ever. Every time someone opens their door next to you or above you, you'll hear it slam. This could be at 1 am, or 5 am and when you're in a popular wedding area, you can bet people stay up late. So if you're wanting a good nights sleep at the Sleep Inn... bring ear plugs.

Called them the week of to adjust our reservation down to 7 rooms and confirm we were coming in on Friday as a school, etc. Friday I miss a call while driving at 4:30pm, I call them back at 6:30 when we stop and they try to explain that since I didn't answer my phone (while driving students) they had to give away two of our rooms, and they claimed they didn't know we were a school (see above when I told them on Tuesday). They also booked us different styles of rooms and only 3 of them would be double queens with pull out couches instead of all 7. The biggest problem with all of this is they sounded like they were blaming us for not answering there call by saying "because you didn't answer we gave your rooms away" and that "we didn't know you were a school" which they did. They also insisted they knew they were overbooked the day before and didn't call us until 4:30 hat afternoon. We were able to shuffle people around to only need those 5 rooms and a room they booked for down the road at the sleep in. They checked us into those rooms. We get to the hotel and get our keys and I give them our tax exempt form, they apologize and insist they will make everything right. I thought that would be the end of our problems, I was wrong. The next morning around 11am we find out that they expected (without ever informing us) that we would be bringing the people staying in the other hotel back to their hotel for the last night of the stay having them repack all of their things, etc. At no point was it ever discussed that that they would even have rooms available the next day. We eventually just extend the room at the other hotel because we didn't want to give this place anymore money because they are awful. When we went to check out we found that they had not infact handled the tax exempt so I had to wait for them to adjust the tax on each of the rooms, and then we found that they had overcharged us for the non-suite room, the front desk staff was unable to fix this so we had call back to the manager later in the day to get it done. In general they did try to make things right by slightly discounting our stay and paying for the 1 night at the other hotel for the 1 room. The lack of communication, the blaming of the customer for problems that they created, in all it took over 2.5hrs on the phone and in person over 3 days to deal with all the issues that came up. Now on to the facilities which were also terrible. On the phone they said construction started Monday but from reading other reviews they have been doing it for longer. Only 1 elevator seemed to be working so wait times were long and the floor was extremely dirty. One of our hotel rooms didn't have a handle on the bathroom door, but we found it in the bathroom and were able to click it back on but the bathroom wouldn't lock. There is no AC in the hallways so they feel like 80+ degrees all day and night. This hotel gives the entire IHG and Holiday Inn brands a terrible name, they should either be under new management or removed from the hotel chain.

Although it was made law that we could not travel, they still charged me $600 for nothing. If I could give this company a negative rating, I would. I understand they are a small company; however, they are still making money off of hundreds of people es expressed in an email I received from their "Concierge Team." This should be illegal as I did not want to cancel, I was forced to due to the circumstances. All of their customers should get their money back if they were impacted by COVID19. As a small business, they can apply for money from the U.S. government. I have no recourse as an individual.

    ***AVOID AT ALL COSTS***…read more Guestspaces is a shady slumlord style property manager. We booked one of their rentals several months ago in advance for the upcoming Formula One race in October and now, months later and after most places are fully booked up and prices have skyrocketed, they canceled our reservation. They are no doubt going to re-list the property for a higher rate as it's clear in reading other reviews, they're no stranger to price gouging. We will be appealing with Airbnb no doubt - just unfortunate as now there are extremely limited options available and everything has gone up immensely in price. Steer clear of dealing with this company at all costs - they will leave you high and dry whenever it is convenient for them. Thanks for ruining our Austin F1 trip, price gouger. *** also worth noting, the positive reviews here seem to be from people who's properties they manage - in other words, those who would benefit from their crooked practice of price gouging*** check it for yourself!
