Lovely, light and airy. High ceilings, tall windows, well decorated, fantastic fluffy pillows and towels, comfortable bed, spotlessly clean. The kitchen is fully outfitted with top of the line appliances and every imaginable tool for cooking (gas stove!) when we were not checking out the boundless Austin food scene! We are on a two month road trip and happily chose to spend 9 days in this amazing location. Serene and Modern was the perfect setting for us! Easy access to everything - just a few blocks from the river and downtown via walking, biking and car. Amina and her son were lovely hosts, greeting us with pecans fresh from the tree in the beautifully landscaped, shared yard. Her suggestions for things to see and experience were perfect. The guidebook, compiled with humor, gave the best options.

Our favorites were Torchy’s Tacos (food truck park), the bats, LBJ Library, Uncommon Objects, Barton Springs, biking and walking the Lake/River, Esther’s Follies, and much more!! We hope to return someday!
