I reserved this room for my mom, who needed a place near me while she recovered from surgery. Here is what she said:
I stayed at Sam for over two months. First at his tiny house (you should check it out; cool little place) and then in this room. The room is spacious and spotless, just like everything else at Sam's house.
I had all the privacy I needed, but still was able to interact with Sam and the other guests whenever I wanted. The ambiance of the house was relaxed and respectful.
Sam is definitely a super host! He is kind, helpful and patient. He is generous and cooks some awesome Texas BBQ!
He also goes out of his way to make sure the guests feel at home, and responds to all requests quickly and happily.
I definitely recommend staying at Sam's 's place while you are in Austin.
