Didn't meet Elizabeth, but she was very communicative via text. Birdhouse was easy to find and Elizabeth left us a key to get in.

Pros: convenient to East Austin; Mr. Natural only a couple blocks away; plenty of Car2Gos in neighborhood; Oskar Blues in fridge; small space decent for our only need - somewhere to sleep on East side for two nights.

Cons: Didn't like entering through alley - especially at night and after a massive rainfall that made it a bit messy; looks more quaint in photos - could use more interior decor; only one bath towel for two people; $25 cleaning fee seemed a bit much for such a small place in which we only slept - not best deal for $90 a night total.

In the end, it served it's purpose and it proved to be very convenient for a short visit back to our former home town, which is changing so much.
