I stayed at Ron and Hattie’s as a last minute booking when my flight out of Austin was canceled. They were very communicative and hospitable as I tried to figure out when I’d be able to leave town. The location is great: steps from the shops and restaurants near 6th & Lamar, and I also walked downtown and even down to Black’s Barbecue south of the river.
The only thing to be aware of is that there is little insulation from the upstairs unit; I could hear the dog who lives up there clearly. This is not a dealbreaker for me at all - I would absolutely stay here next time, and had no trouble sleeping with earplugs - but good to be aware of if you need a quiet space.
Thanks again to Ron & Hattie for the hospitality!
