It’s a quiet neighborhood, truly “Old Austin,” and if I recall, some of my old buddies lived around there, back in the day. That was then, this is now. The place was sparkling clean, super quiet, has private access and single parking spot off the street, so that’s a big plus. Great place to stay and will probably book it again.
If there was one problem, it was the stupid coffee machine, and this is no fault of the hosts, as I couldn’t figure out how to work an older Keruing machine. Again, no fault of the host at all, that’s all on me. Early Sunday morning, “How do you turn this thing on, where’s the water go, etc.” Probably could’ve saved all my frustration by just walking up to Thunderbird Coffee.
It’s a “garage apartment,” really well kitted out, and one of the stand out features was the light in the bathroom. At 6-foot, I could see out the bathroom windows, but only just barely, and they let in a wonderful kind of wan, morning light. Really a delightful experience getting ready for another day at work.
