Kelly and Louie were amazing hosts. For my first stay in Austin, this couldn't have been a better experience. The neighborhood is quiet and secluded without being out in the middle of nowhere -- you'll be so close to downtown, uptown, around town -- and it'll only take minute to get anywhere since it's right on MoPac (but you don't hear it at all). The little apartment is even better than it looks, full of a vibe that makes it feel like a home away from home -- and the hosts have plans to make it even better.

Kelly goes the distance in providing some mainstays like bottled water, yogurt and English muffins in the mini fridge just to keep that first morning from being too rushed -- and the patio outside is a little piece of Heaven that both smokers and non-smokers can enjoy without upsetting any of the surroundings, neighbors, or hosts.

The hosts were uniquely concerned as to my level of comfort and made sure that I had everything that I needed. The bathroom and kitchen is modern and, after a few days, I wanted to take the bathroom home with me.

Being my first AirBNB experience, I'll say that I've most likely been spoiled. I can't imagine a trip going any more smoothly. I can't imagine ever feeling any more welcome where I stay. I hope to visit again!
