I really loved my stay at Shelley's place. The duplex had everything I needed and Shelley quickly brought me the couple things I needed that weren't there. She's a great host and fast communicator, and really cares about her guests. The duplex wasn't fancy, but it was very nice and exactly what I needed for my month's long stay. The neighborhood was great for walking my dog. It was also very central to so many great Austin places. There is some construction always going on there, but nothing was too bothersome for too long. The little enclosed patio isn't really big enough to let a dog run, but it has a strip of dirt and my dog enjoyed laying out there and sunning herself. I would definitely stay again.
