This place is absolutely beautiful and situated conveniently in downtown Austin. The hosts were kind in communications and in meeting additional requests. They even threw in a bottle of wine that was waiting when I arrived. Although I had trouble managing the floor-to-ceiling blinds, that was user error, and they offered to send someone to help me. I finally figured it out after spending the first few nights/mornings with lots of light in the space. Entering and exiting the building was a breeze, and I felt like a queen throughout my stay.
Unfortunately, it really is loud. I’ve stayed in downtown Austin dozens of times during the past few years, so I expected it — or thought I did — but this was the loudest yet. I had to sleep with headphones in every night simply to squeak in 4-5 hours of sleep. Needless to say, it wasn’t restful. If you elect to stay here, know that going in. If you can deal with that, you will be thoroughly delighted with this gem!!
