Robert's house is just awesome. Plenty of room for a large group (we had 10) to stay comfortably. It was only about a mile from downtown Austin, so we basically walked every day (though cabs and public transportation were also an option - we just wanted to enjoy the nice weather). He's got all the amenities and is also very close to a couple of great BBQ and Mexican restaurants so we were never far from an amazing meal. We also could have cooked, but we decided to take in the local cuisine instead. Check-in/check-out was super easy. Robert was there if we needed him, but nothing came up. We also really loved the code lock for the door because we didn't have to worry about shuffling around keys. I kind of want one of those for my own door! This place is perfect for a relaxing stay in Austin, especially if you plan to be downtown a lot. East Austin has an awful lot of gems as well. Would stay here again in a heartbeat.
