My girlfriend and I met Andy & Ellen briefly during our stay at their cottage. They were very friendly, and left us coffee, milk, and various beverages in the fridge. We really appreciated that Ellen kept us up to date on the road work in front of their house so we didn't have to park at the end of the block. The cottage is about 10min driving from downtown which we found to be perfect. We really enjoyed Austin, and our stay at Central Cottage could not have been more enjoyable.
