Pat's house was comfortable and in nice neighborhood. It is conveniently located, close to both downtown and the airport. Pat was very responsive, and REALLY turned-to on day one of our stay to make sure we had what we needed to support my business Internet needs. I would say that Pat's house is best suited for those who want an affordable place to stay while enjoying the best Austin has to offer in dining out and nightlife. While he provides the basics, the kitchen isn't outfitted to create gourmet meals and there is no grill (nor is the fireplace functional) for insurance purposes. Overall, I would definitely stay there again, should my travels take me back to the Austin area.
