What a wonderful space in a great location with a phenomenal host, what more could you want? The apartment, which is located on top of the hosts' home, is exactly as described. You have the driveway to yourself and tons of privacy. The metal rocker on the outdoor deck is the perfect place to enjoy a morning cup of Nespresso. We stayed on the hottest weekend ever (highs were 104-107 degF), but thankfully the 2 A/C units kept us cool!
The apartment is in a great location, in the old Clarksville neighborhood and in walking distance of Deep Eddy Pool and several restaurants (highly recommend 68 Degrees, but got food poisoning from Tumble22 and do not recommend that one).
What really makes the difference about this place, though, is the host. Like everyone else has said, Marilyn provides her guests with lots of drinks and snacks. She knew we were bringing our service dog, and she even had snacks waiting for him! Unfortunately, we got food poisoning as I mentioned, and Marilyn was a Godsend. She offered us food, Pepto, and even went to the store for us. She offered anything to help us, and felt personally responsible for our mishaps on behalf of Austin! She really is the best. She went far beyond what I would ever expect of a host. I will always try to book Marilyn's lovely home anytime I am in Austin. I can't say enough great things!
