Our stay was made easy by Ben. The week leading up to our trip Ben sent us all the information we needed to put our minds at ease. He even put a few beers in the fridge.
The place was lovely, clean and looked exactly like it did in the pictures. The area is also extremely quiet in the evenings so you'll have no trouble sleeping.
The house is central to down town (too far to walk), but if your not a fan of public transport I recommend renting a car. The buses ARE easy to use and get but are not that frequent.
I would definitely recommend this place and stay here again if I was to visit Austin.
