Stay here! Seriously! This place is great! It's clean, modern and feels like your very own Austin home. Everything is top-notch.
The hosts, John and Melissa, couldn't be any nicer or more accommodating. John helped settle us in, gave us a quick Austin run-down, handed over a bag tasty local Cuvée coffee and let us on our own to discover Austin. By the way, there is a kitchen and a fridge which they thoughtfully stocked with bottled water and some Texas beer. Nice touch!
The neighborhood is a quiet, residential part of Austin. You can walk to area restaurants and bars or do what we did, rent bikes. If that's your thing like it is ours you will be able explore the city with ease, especially using its great Roy and Ann Butler hike and bike trail.
Next time we visit Austin we hope this place will be available! Highly recommend!
