Whitney was the perfect host. She was very accommodating and her communication was impeccable -- leading up to the trip and during our stay. Her home is adorable and well appointed with very comfortable beds and high-quality lenins. All of the great shops and restaurants of South Congress and South 1st street were an easy 15-20 minute walk. It was also very easy to use RideAustin (Uber is not available in Austin) to get downtown and other points of interest. I would return to Whitney's home in a heartbeat.
