My boyfriend and I decided to celebrate our 3-year anniversary with a last-minute trip to Austin. We were lucky to find Sarah and David's place; it was just right.
Everything was very clean, well cared-for, and walked the perfect line between comfortable and trendy. Notably, the bathroom is quite large, with a fantastic immersive shower! Also, I liked that the hosts were so near, in case of issues, but they were respectful and gave us our privacy. And they have so many nice touches, including cute handwritten instructions around the house, and they left us some nice treats on the table for our arrival. Communicating with them was a breeze.
Although the Hyde Park neighborhood is a 10-15 drive from downtown (in good traffic), we much preferred staying in a location with a neighborhood feel. It's a super cozy area, with good food and nice people. Mother's (food) and Blue Velvet (vintage clothing) were among our favorite places we visited.
