I can honestly say Rocky is the most accommodating and responsive host I’ve ever had the pleasure of renting from. I stayed in his lovely little Airbnb for a little over a month, and while there were some hiccups, he was quick to address any and every concern I had. I guess that would be my biggest piece of advice for anyone staying here … If you have a concern be sure and let him know.
Also, having never been to Austin, this was an ideal location. It was far enough away from downtown to avoid the rush there, but still within walking distance and/or a quick 10-minute drive to anywhere I wanted to go in the city. There are also plenty of cute restaurants and cafes right there. A few of my favorites - 40 North for wood-fired pizza, salads and labneh; Soup Peddler for soup and fresh juice/smoothies; Word of Mouth Bakery for everything (plus, they’re SO nice!); Fresa’s for Mexican; and many more. And for a nights in, I highly recommend making a fire in the chiminea and taking advantage of the patio area and city views.
