I had an excellent stay at Weston's place!
Accommodations: Place was comfortable, private, and quiet. It had everything I needed. There were extra amenities provided like coffee, tea, and beverages in the mini-fridge. Weston keeps the place very clean and I enjoyed the nice garden right outside the unit. The friendly chickens in the yard made the experience very unique. They even provided some food to feed the chickens, which I found very therapeutic in the mornings.
Communications: Weston was super prompt at responding to all my messages and frequently checked in with me to make sure everything was going well. His instructions were very thorough and details on everything from the check-in and check-out process to wifi, so I didn't need to ask for anything. He provided a useful list of things to do around the area and within walking-distance.
Location: The place was within a short 10-15 min walking distance to restaurants and shops. So you could probably get away with not having a car. But as with most places in Austin, having a car and is recommended especially if you want to get out and experience what Austin has to offer and the major attractions (you can also use ride-shares). There's plenty of parking right outside on the street. I felt very safe in the area, which is more of a residential community where locals live.
Hosts: Weston and Elizabeth were very nice and courteous! They offered me some great local tips to explore outdoor areas of Austin. They offered me enough privacy but were open to me reaching out should I need anything.
