Stan was very flexible regarding our early arrival and allowed us to drop off our bags so we could explore Austin without lugging them around. He welcomed us with a chilled bottle of wine and very detailed explanations of the house as well as the surrounding area. The home is located in a beautiful neighborhood and we felt very safe and comfortable during our stay. The home easily fit all eight of us and we thoroughly enjoyed the amazing bedding provided. We were able to walk to cafes, restaurants, bars and the area grocery store which saved us time and money since we didn't have a rental car. It is a great location for guests going to Austin City Limits and provides convenient access to the less-crowded MoPac pedestrian entrance. A strict rule regarding not being allowed outside past 10 pm was our only issue with the rental; we were not prepared for that and given the timing of the ACL festival it limited our ability to relax on the porch when we got home. Otherwise we highly recommend for groups that will not be out past 10 pm and want to enjoy a wonderful home!
