Business in Austin: I travel for business to Austin frequently and wanted a change from the usual hotels. Something unique but comfortable. My only reservation in staying at a private residence was having everything I need to get work done when needed (desk, fast internet, etc..) as I would in a hotel.

Happy to say that the Dodge's Zilker apartment gave me the best of both worlds. Like a hotel, they have a private entrance, hi speed internet (waaay faster than any hotel!), great bed, excellent shower and minutes away from some of Austin's best restaurant's (You could walk to Uchi, best sushi in the country!). But it also gave me what I was looking for in some place unique; funky but quiet neighborhood, great design/décor. You even pass through John and Melissa's vegetable garden going into the apartment! Can't do that at a hotel! Great touch to the end of the day. John and Melissa are such great hosts, made sure I had everything I needed.

Austin hotels just lost my business. Excellent stay!
