This is THE PERFECT place to stay in Austin if you are looking for something close to all the action, nature, and food! Our Uber rides were no more than $6-$10 anywhere we went. It was maybe about 10 minutes to downtown in the city, to Zilker Park, 30 minutes to the Austin Zoo, a 5 minute walk to Torchy’s Tacos/Jo’s Coffee/all of SoCo. Such a nice quiet, romantic and very cozy castle cottage that was tucked away in a nice neighborhood but was so close to amazing food places and bars. SoCo is such a quaint, quirky, and lovely little neighborhood to walk around. It all felt very safe at night, too. We met Ian and he was super nice and friendly, even opening our door when we accidentally locked ourself out. The castle cottage has a clean, modern inside while still maintaining its “historic castle feel.” Had plenty of fresh towels, toilet paper, body soap/shampoo/conditioner, coffee, tea, a “Brita” refillable water filter (very nice touch!), a quick/easy new heating/AC unit, and a Roku TV with plenty of streaming services available such as Netflix, Prime Video, etc! Cannot say anything bad about this place! Perfect location, fabulous modern/stylish/cozy home, easy communication/check-in/out, and it has more than necessary amenities. Oh, and another BIG perk we enjoyed the most was the memory foam bed and pillows, extremely comfortable, we never wanted to leave the cottage! You will DEFINITELY get your money’s worth staying here, and enjoy the outside patio and hammock if you can :) ! Thank you both so much for the wonderful experience and hospitality!
