John and Carol should call this "a terrific place to stay in Austin". Our hosts had thought of everything including beverages, snacks, fruit and even fresh roasted coffee from Boulden Creek. Very comfortable and roomy bedrooms, terrific bathrooms with cool showers...all very new looking, clean and nicely furnished. While we didn't use the kitchen (so many great restaurants with walking distance) they seemed to have all anyone would need including a dishwasher. We also didn't get to use the patio with outdoor large screen TV or upper deck(via neat spiral staircase) but they looked great and perhaps we can on the next visit. A great place, a great value, a great location and very thoughtful hosts... would love to go back on next visit to Austin!
