Loved staying at Sylvia's place. I had a conference at the Fairmont in downtown Austin which was only 2-3 blocks away so this airbnb was ideal. Prior reviews are spot on about the homeless encampments a block away from airbnb and along the road to cross the freeway over to downtown. I never got haggled or disturbed but also dint feel fully comfortable dressing up in my suit/tie (for conference) and walking past them so I used the electric scooters quite a lot. It was only 2-3$ to zip me past the few blocks to downtown. If you keep the AC on, it serves as white noise because sometimes the loud motorcycles on the freeway would bother me at night but white noise ± ear plugs were sufficient. I think for the price, location and amenities in a very clean airbnb with easy to get in and out all day and night, you can't find a better deal around.
