Although I was here for work, each night I returned to Gale and Bill's place, it felt like I was stepping into my own mountain lodge. And, after chatting with Gale and Bill, for the first time, it felt like I was getting together with long time friends that I hadn't seen for awhile. The architecture of the loft was amazing. A warm and cozy feeling but very spacious rooms. This is a great place to rest for whatever reason you may be visiting the Austin area.
