As a native Austinite and frequent AirBnB-er, I can say that Jake's place is the real deal. We (family of 4; 2 young kids) stayed here while back visiting family and were not disappointed. Outdoors is perfect and indoors has everything you need, from the kitchen to the bathrooms. As other reviews mention, there is a train in the evening/overnight that can wake you up, and East Austin is definitely a developing part of town. Those items aside, what the owner can control, he does well, and is a great communicator to boot.
