Barbara met us at the time of our arrival and right away made us feel welcome with an introduction of herself and her home. The directions to her home made it very easy to find even though we arrived after dark. Her home was very clean and she allowed us access to her kitchen and backyard patio which included a hot tub and swimming pool. The pool was too cold for us to enjoy but we used the hot tub twice during our two day stay. Barbara gave us several tips of places to eat, places of interest, live music venues and recommendations on how to make the best of our stay in Austin. The neighborhood was clean and safe and we took daily walks for exercise. We wouldn't hesitate to return as Barbara's guests and look forward to visiting again sometime.
