Jon's place was perfect for our short stay in Austin. Superbly located to explore South Congress and South 1st by foot, and an easy bus ride up to Downtown and beyond. The neighbourhood felt completely safe, and we really enjoyed having a beer out on the front step one evening, and even seeing some fireflies!

Jon made us feel very welcome. Really appreciated the drinks and snacks left for us, and the very handy local listings magazine. We only met Jon once, but on that occasion he was kind enough to give us a ride Downtown and offer some personal nightlife recommendations on the way (Continental Club was awesome btw!).

I highly recommend Jon as a host, and his very cosy cottage!
