I'll just say up front I normally don't leave lengthy reviews but my fiancé and I were so impressed with Julia's place and her hospitality that I have to rave. Let me start by saying 5 stars isn't enough to describe our amazing experience. Frankly, I would give them a presidential medal of freedom because on top of having an incredible place, they are hands down the best hosts I have ever stayed with. My fiancé and I were looking for an Air BnB somewhat last minute to round out our trip in Austin. When Julia's place popped up we almost thought it was a scam because it was so awesomely (Austinly) chic' but had zero reviews--we came to find out Julia and her husband recently bought the house and we were their first guests! However, this is clearly not their first rodeo because I would make them super hosts today if I was Airbnb's algorithm for deciding that. The place itself is a lovely cottage adjacent to their home. It has its own access so privacy is not an issue and they did a marvelous job with the decorations and amenities. Not to mention the bed is possibly more comfortable than my own. It has a kitchen with all the appliances and a beautiful modern bathroom. It's also a block away from an HEB supermarket which (in my opinion) is a landmark cue that it's a nice area. Plus, it's perfectly situated in central Austin so plenty of restaurant and bar options as well. BUT, what made our trip was Julia's hospitality. I mentioned to her in a message that my fiancé' and I were newly engaged and she had Champaign and a lovely congratulatory note waiting. All in all it was a lovely stay and we will definitely be back.
