Pedram's place is exactly what you want from your Austin experience. Amazing location, walking or biking distance to Barton Springs, Town Lake and Zilker park. Excellent proximity to great food, live music, BBQ, cool bars, etc. within a short walk or even shorter bike ride. The place itself is immaculate -- comfy beds, nice and clean bathrooms, well appointed kitchen and loads of patio space. Plus, Pedram was great - friendly, easy to get back hold of, and he had tons of suggestions for secret local things to do in town. Will definitely stay here again when I'm back in Austin.
