We stayed here because we had a wedding to go to about 5 minutes away. It was convenient and a cool property! Very artistic, comfortable and a great get away. It was a 20 minute drive or so to downtown, so unless you have a car or are willing to pay for a cab/lyft/uber or whatever you use, it may not be the best option if you plan to spend a lot of time in downtown Austin. If you're looking for a quite and relaxing getaway, this is your spot! We loved the chickens and relaxing on the patio. The hosts were very accomadating and never failed to provide coffee, coffee cake (which was delicious!) and croissants every morning. We slept in so often and got home late that we didn't really get to spend much time with the hosts, but it was always easy coming and going into the house! The dog didn't make a peep! The only issue we had the whole time was the sink in the bathroom not draining properly, which they fixed right away! Thanks for a great memorial weekend trip!
