Just got back from a great Austin weekend staying at Leslie's place. The place is perfect for a weekend trip or extended stay in Austin. We rented bikes to get further around town but also appreciated being able to walk to tons of great bars, restaurants on the east side as well as downtown. The place is also only a few blocks from Austin's river trail which was ideal for biking as well as for some awesome early-morning runs.

Having lost my own four-legged friend recently, I also really enjoyed hanging out with Friday, a terrific and low-key pooch. Leslie made us coffee and was even cool enough to pre-stock the fridge with beer for our arrival. I'd definitely stay again on my next trip to Austin.
