Jose (and Luna, the family dog) met me upon arrival. Jose was very gracious and provided advice for getting around the city. He also set out a bike for me to use on the nearby trails. The unit (a converted garage, it appeared) was clean and well appointed. It had a comfortable bed, terrific shower, full kitchen, and high end TV with surround sound system. Complimentary snacks were provided (and appreciated). The neighborhood, Tarrytown, is just west of downtown. It's a quiet residential area that felt very safe. There's not much within convenient walking distance, but I was able to get to most Austin sights very quickly by car.
