I don't think I could have picked a more perfect place to stay for my three nights in Austin. I had a feeling after reading Barbara's glowing airbnb reviews that she truly enjoyed hosting, after after staying in her home, I have no doubt about it. Barbara was welcoming and accommodating and made sure my boyfriend and I had everything we needed to be comfortable.

And really, there is so much in this home to make you feel comfortable! The decorations were beautiful and our room was so quiet, with a great view of the pool and backyard. I loved how our host had the essentials labeled so we knew where to find extra towels and other things. She even had restaurant and attraction recommendations printed out for us! We made use of the mini fridge to store our leftovers and helped ourselves to Keurig coffee in the mornings. One night when we retired early, we had a "redbox night" and made use of the great TV and DVD player in our room. Although our bedroom was part of the house, it felt so private, with its separate entrance from the back of the home and separate bathroom for us to use. The amenities were far, far beyond what I had expected!

We only saw Barbara and Will twice during our three-day stay in their home, but their hellos and goodbyes were warm and definitely made us want to return to see them again. They are fantastic hosts!
