Mariah-Rae is the perfect host - she was so friendly and was there whenever we needed her. This is the perfect place to stay if you want to experience all that Austin has to offer and come home and relax by the pool afterwards. Her garden is magical and the location is perfect. We didn't drive when we were there but we were walking distance to downtown or a cheap uber ride away. There's also fun bars and great food in this area. The bed is extremely comfortable and the perfect place to land after a long day exploring. She also has a sound machine - you need to try it. The crackling fireplace option was our fave! Also her shower is incredible. The citrus shower head is so luxurious! We highly recommend staying here and can't wait to come back again soon.
