We have stayed in a number of airbnb's since its inception, but Carmine and Steve's place stands out. In addition to their dog friendly approach, they have merged style with comfort in a way that is unique. From amenities (coffee, water, and other beverages--thank you) to communication and just plain feeling welcome--you will be lucky to stay here. Did I mention sparkling clean? An added bonus that I had not noticed in the listing is the pavilion adjacent to the casita. It expands the sense of space by double whether you use it or not. And the location is perfect in so many ways but then, we really like the Crestview neighborhood in Austin. (Nothing says welcome like a Little Deli dinner.) As to the train which gets mentioned in other reviews, it is a non-issue. I would not hesitate to book this property again and thank Carmine and Steve for making it possible.
