I didn't get to meet Jon, but his house was beautiful, convenient, well-stocked, and just really a nice place to be. While we didn't spend much time indoors during our time in Austin, we appreciated the nice touches like great local coffee, snacks/fruits, a clean and stocked bathroom (we forgot all of our shower goodies). His plant + home decorations gave me inspiration for my own! Amenities aside, the location is about a 4 min walk to HEB, and an 8-10 min stroll to the top of S Congress (hello, Torchy's!). I felt safe walking around the neighborhood during the day and at night. I'm happy that we got to spend part of our time in Austin at Jon's and hope to visit again.
