I booked Jill and Mike's place for a bachelor party weekend this past week, I can't say enough about their hospitality! Mike greeted us upon arrival to give us a tour and answer any questions we might have. He also was super helpful in giving us recommendations (the house also has a very handy book the hosts put together about many, many things you can do while you're in Austin). To top it off the hosts gave us a welcome gift of Texas whiskey and were also super nice to leave a departure gift for the bachelor's future wife. Re: the location, it was very convenient to stay here and get to downtown via Car2Go (the hosts will provide you a parking spot). We didn't want to be right in thick of downtown so the house was the best of both worlds, spacious and a nice backyard for grilling, playing darts, or even kick a soccer ball around while also having easy access to downtown (about a 10 min drive). There were also plenty of places to eat and drink within walking distance. We all loved our time here, highly recommend!!
