Staying at Anne and Tim's place was exactly what I'd hoped for and I've been extremely happy to call it my home this week for SXSW - my 4th visit to Austin. I loved its location (a peaceful neighbourhood less than 20 mins walk to the heart of SoCo's cafes, restaurants and vintage stores, also only a 10-minute walk from the daily $1.25 Night Owl bus route - 483 Riverside - for those wishing to enjoy a late night downtown); day or night I felt quite safe. The apartment's facilities were good; for SX my priorities are always a comfy bed and decent shower - Anne's place more than delivered and was well-equipped. It was very comfortable, she ensured it had the right temperature during a particularly interchangeable week of spring weather, and the personal/local touches throughout the apartment made me feel as though I was experiencing Austin as a local for the week. Before my arrival Anne was responsive and she was a suitably attentive host during my stay - I only saw her for check-in/check-out, but she stayed in touch throughout the week so I knew if I needed anything, she was only a text message away – especially reassuring as a solo female traveller; I felt very well looked after. I'd certainly stay again and hope next time I visit Austin, I'm able to return. Thank you Anne and Tim! A perfect experience.
