This is a long overdue review for Dolina and her absolutely charming guest house. My partner and I were in Austin for the first time for a friend's wedding over New Year's Eve (2012/2013) which was being held at nearby Mercury Hall. Given the timing of the event, we decided it would be ideal if we could find a place to stay within walking distance of the venue and we could not have been more pleased to find this property.

Firstly I wanted to say that Dolina was very prompt in her responses to our initial inquiries and very obliging in providing additional information about transport issues, the surrounding neighborhoods and the city in general. This made planning a lot easier since we were in unfamiliar territory. When we arrived we couldn't have been more pleased with the casita. The space is thoughtfully arranged and decorated, very clean and feels quite private. (My partner wondered more than once whether we ought to leave our Sydney apartment and build ourselves a little home modeled on this one out in the Australian bush!) Dolina politely left us to our own devices but was always readily available if we needed anything.

We would quite happily stay here again and would recommend the property unreservedly to anyone who was keen to stay in the area. In terms of value for money, you certainly can't beat it.
