Sylvia's was like a private bungalow. Bed very comfy & I certainly appreciated the extra pillows ( I have a bunch @ home!).She has toiletries and snacks ready for your arrival. The location was perfect for me. I was in town for a conference @ the convention-took me less than 10 min to walk over there! Sixth street was also walking distance. As she says - lots of eating places -I recommend the Greek food truck on Chavez by the conference center! Although Iron works for BBQ and Gus's for fried chicken are also good! I will certainly try to stay with Sylvia next time I'm in Austin.
