Caitlin's place is exactly as it is photographed. It really is beautiful and tasteful. I loved the paintings on the wall. It is also very close to most neighborhoods, bars, and food trucks. We found the area very easy to navigate. It is obviously an up-and-coming area... but it is not unsafe as other people may have suggested. When you walk through the streets you can see that most homes are gorgeous and well-kept. Anyone from any other large city would immediately know that this area is not even a slight bit intimidating. We walked almost everywhere! I don't recommend it all the time, mostly because of the heat. Ubers are also reaaaaallly cheap around here! My only main concern is the light. Caitlin's photos and description are accurate...we were aware that it is a very bright space, however even at night it is very light in the casita, especially the light coming from the backyard and house. I would recommend Caitlin's place and would definately reccommend visiting Austin!!
