This room is right in the heart of S. Congress yet far enough off a side street that it's very quiet. We got in on a beautiful warm day and the streets were buzzing with activity. Lots of restaurants, bars, shops and rental bikes all within an easy walk. The room was bright, clean and Ben was a terrific host. We had privacy but he was great at answering our questions about what to see and do in Austin. The house is serene and quiet, no TV for a change (nice!) and a perfect place to stay if you want to be in the hub of it all.
