Robin's place was a perfect location to explore Austin from, especially all the great venues in East Austin - a few minutes walk from loads of lovely cafes for breakfast (our favourite was Paperboy, about 2 mins walk) and lots of great bars with live music during the evening (we loved the free community blues/soul night at Kenny Dorham's Backyard on Mondays and music at the Shangri-La on E 6th Street).
The room was very clean and comfortable, the bathroom had lots of thoughtful extra touches like a hairdryer, shampoo and conditioner which made us feel very at home. We were so busy exploring Austin we didn't have time to use the backyard but I wish we'd had time to enjoy a beer in it!
Robin was super flexible and welcoming (letting us a do a laundry load and lending us beach towels to go swimming at the lake among other things!) and we really enjoyed our stay, thank you so much Robin.
