If you want to experience a place that epitomizes the wonderful eclectic vibe of Austin's east side, book this room. If you also would enjoy a chance for an authentic encounter with the people of the place, meet Michael and Lee and their good old dog Sprinkles. The room has a separate entrance and bath, so you can choose to maintain your privacy, or you can accept an invitation for a conversation on the porch. Either way, you will enjoy an artistically decorated space with every traveler's convenience provided. The plug strips on either side of the bed with USB slots included were just one thoughtful detail. I stayed five days while getting to know some of Austin's highlights. I could have comfortably stayed much longer.
