This was my first airbnb stay and it really set the bar high. The place was amazing - clean and had everything that we needed, not to mention it was in a fantastic location within walking distance to S. Congress. The neighborhood seemed very safe and I was very comfortable there. Check-in and check-out were a breeze.
As we pulled up, the owner, Joe, and neighbors were having a get together outside and welcomed me and my daughter with open arms - everyone was so warm and friendly. Joe and a neighbor even brought my luggage up to the apartment for me.
I was travelling with my 16 mo. old daughter and the apartment was absolutely perfect for her. There was a pack-n-play and high chair for her to use and there was not a lot of stuff sitting out for her to get into or break. There was also a baby gate at the top of the stairs/edge of the balcony so she could freely run around on the balcony without me having to worry about her trying to go down the stairs.
I would highly recommend this apartment to anyone, especially if you are travelling with small children, and would stay here again the next time I visit Austin.
