This place is amazing - the location, the pool, and the general style and decor of The Guesthouse exceeded my expectations. My only regret is that I would have done more research to understand what a great location this actually is, as I probably would not have gotten a rental car. Which speaking of a rental car, the street parking was always available and safe at Bill’s place. It is a really short walk to South Congress (five minutes) where great bars, restaurants, and shopping are. For a lot of the bigger attractions (seeing the bats fly out from under the Congress bridge, and checking out a show at the Paramount Theatre) that are unique to Austin, we were able to comfortably walk. Bill was a great host - the check-in process was easy, the place was easy to find, it was extremely clean and stocked with towels, toiletries, etc. He had a lot of great local tips for places to eat that we checked out and enjoyed a lot. The pool was awesome and so pretty and a pleasant temperature! Overall, I would HIGHLY recommend this place as far as location, aesthetic, and value go! Just book it, you won’t regret it.
