My 4-night stay at the Solar Sanctuary - Zen Room was great! Kim was helpful in giving me info before the trip, and I was able to take a bus from the airport to within a few blocks of the house for $1.50. The South Austin location is less than a mile from downtown, and it was easy to walk to downtown and other attractions like Barton Springs. Plus there's a lot happening within a few blocks, so I spent some time enjoying the Soco (South Congress) scene. There's a bus stop a block from the house, and I took the bus on cold mornings -- you're downtown in less than 10 minutes. My stay was relaxed. I felt at home. And I had told Kim about some particular areas of interest that I wanted to know more about in Austin. She knows a ton about Austin history and current affairs, so I learned a lot. A very positive experience.
