So we went to Austin on Friday night and had to find a place last minute. Lester contacted me over the standby list (great feature!!!) and we made a deal immediately. We got to Austin around 11:00pm which must have been inconvenient for our host but he didn't complain at all. Our room was made up and ready! We were very pleased with our stay and will probably stay with Lester again whenever we will come to Austin again.
He is a very interesting person and can give you great tips to find your way around Austin if you ask him!
