This was one of the best Airbnbs I’ve stayed in! First and foremost, Caitlin and Annalise are so, so kind. We were there during a freeze (that’s Austin in February for ya), and they were so helpful in preparing us and making sure everything stayed working. They were empathetic and just enjoyable to interact with. You don’t always find hosts as wonderful as them, and for that, we were so grateful. A few other highlights:
Workspace: As a remote worker, having reliable Wi-Fi and enough space to work is so important! Three of us were working remotely during our month there, and we had plenty of desk/chair and couch space to accommodate. We never had an issue with the Wi-Fi, even with all of us streaming or Zoom-ing at once.
Location: I’ve lived in Austin for more than 20 years, and this was one of my favorite locations I’ve “lived.” The uber ride to most downtown or central locations is ~10 minutes or less. And we were next to some of my favorite spots: Veracruz (BEST breakfast tacos), Greater Goods (great coffee and coworking space), Gourmand’s (epic sandwiches), Teddy Vs (cookies - yum!), OMG Squee (mochi donuts and macarons - yum!), great restaurants including Rosewood, Juniper, Granny’s (more breakfast tacos!), Nixta (dinner tacos). I could go on….
The house is pretty new, so we had zero issues with the appliances or overall functionality of the house. Everything worked as it should!
I would go back to Caitlin and Annalise’s in a heartbeat. I will miss the bright open living room and overall cozy feel of their house. Thank you so much for an amazing month!
