We booked on a very short notice a day before and Leslie was great! As it was our first time in Austin, we did not get to spend much time with her, but mainly slept and showered at her wonderful spacious house. The location is great, close to everything but the room was incredibly quiet - I don't even sleep that well at home. The neighbourhod is goregeous, the houses have open front lawns and it feels totally safe. Cafes, bars etc. are all just a short walk away (I recommend Cenote down the road for breakfast, or coffee at Texas Coffee Traders!) Leslies dog Friday also made us feel welcome, he's cute, friendly and very uncomplicated. The room and house were lovingly decorated, everything was tidy and clean but still felt very personal.
