About Us:
My wife and I typically seek out immersive neighborhood staying experiences.....meaning outside of the hotel or high rise living spaces. We prefer bohemian, traditional, home-y apartments or homes.
Sound:
Incredibly quiet neighborhood street and home.
Location:
An older, perhaps gentrified North Austin neighborhood undergoing quite a bit of change but seemed very safe (e.g. the Pilsen neighborhood of Chicago). The owner had home security and the property was well-kept. About a 12-15 minute Uber to downtown Austin as well as a brewery district often missed by downtown visitors. Austin Beerworks and the other breweries in that area are a must. We created our own brewery tour in fact! We HIGHLY recommend Maudie's Tex Mex Restaurant within 3 minutes of the home. Ate there all 3 mornings!!!
Home:
A beautifully renevoted modern Austin coach house within a big backyard. Every touch was well-thoughtout and curated. Modern appliances with a beautiful countertop and floors. Plenty of space for a couple and perhaps 1-2 more people. Shower pressure was great with plenty of hot water. The kitchen was fully stocked for cooking a great dinner! Large tvs in each room equipped with Netflix and Amazon Prime. HVAC system worked very well in the Austin heat. No doubt an oasis on the northern skirt of Austin!
Host:
Very responsive, thorough, and sweet! I accidently locked us out and the owner responded quickly! She was understanding when I accidentally packed a couple of the pillowcases thinking they were my wife's clothes (I'm now banned from packing:)). Checkin and checkout was easy with the keypad.
