It was a great experience staying here. Lola is a really sweet host – she willingly went the extra mile for me so many times. She made me feel comfortable and at home almost immediately. We engaged in many inspiring conversations, but you can definitely choose to have your own privacy in the room. The house was clean and beautifully decorated. There was always an array of breakfast options and Austin-related magazines to read to learn more about the city. The neighbourhood can get really dark at night, but that should be no problem if driving or riding cabs. I mainly used the bus to get around, and managed to get to north Austin and downtown with ease.
