After staying at a really nice hotel, I didn't really feel comfortable being roomed next to the a bachelor party. So it was airbrb to the rescue. Obvisously, you can't buy this experience at the Mariott. I was in town for the Austin Film Festival and truly felt the essence of Austin with This family. Creativity starts with the ambiance and Bob and Cynthia capture this spirit. From the music selection to hearing wonderful stories of the home. I wished I had stayed there from the start. They have a great guide book which I used a few of their recommendations. This is a super cool family and place. It's also the birth of my feature I should have wrote a long time ago. If an average writer writes 2-pages a day, I wrote about 10 a day. I can't wait to comeback with my family and I'm sure this is a great place for the holidays. I sadly didn't have time to try Cynthia's herb garden, but will be back. Also ladies, leave your hair dryer at home, the one they provide is amazing, one less thing to pack.
