In many ways the Barn was better than advertised. It really was an awesome space and our group loved staying here. The hosts were helpful and both really nice people. Kelly has a great eye for decorating and it really shows. Can't stress enough how much we loved the space.
That said there's a few things I wish I was aware of before I booked. First, distance... the Barn is 11 miles outside of city limits. Depending on time of day you could get to Austin in 25/30 mins. We kind of freaked out when we first went to check in... it took us over an hour to get there for our 4pm check in from downtown. Austin rush hour is brutal so I'd highly recommend requesting early or late check-in. Distance isn't that big of a deal if your whole group is staying together at the Barn. For our group of 13, five stayed at the Barn and 10 stayed downtown in a hotel. The barn was a little bit too far for the downtown guys to come and use it as we planned (BBQ, hang out, etc).
2nd, the barn advertises itself to sleep between 5-9 people. It has plenty of room, but only 3 of the 5 beds were real mattresses (the other two were air mattresses). They were still high quality but there was some minor grumblings from the guys who got there later and had to take the air mattresses. There's only one bathroom but its very nicely done and was fine for our group of 5 guys.
3rd, the barn advertises itself as a place to host events yet has a pretty excessive "guest fee." Host charged us $10/head to have some friends over for a few hours which I thought was unusual for AirBnB. It deterred us from using the Barn as much as we probably would have.
Our group loved the Barn, just wish it was a little closer to town!
