Garret was WONDERFUL. Not only did he offer us to use his bikes while in town he gave great insight to some of his favorite spots in town. Austin just rolled out a new City Bike Share program which we ended up taking advantage of instead of using the offered personal bikes. It was cheap, and Garret gave directions on how to pick them up as well as bus schedule information. I would certainly stay again, and woudl recomend his place highly. On top of all that, it was truly like a home away from home with all the natrual and green products he has throughout his home. Composting, recycling and Garret's overall attitude toward life and the enviroment made me feel very comfortable. The neighborhood is fantastic and the neighbors are all very friendly, many spoke to us on our way out as we walked or biked everywhere we needed to go once getting to Garrets.
