Bill's Carriage House was exactly as described and captured in the pictures. Although we had a car, we kept it parked except for a day excursion to some wineries in the Hill Country. Everything else we wanted to do was within easy walking distance for me (61 years old) and my wife (58) We walked downtown to the State House but spent most of our time in the neighbourhood. The Continental Club was great for music and was 10-15 minutes away. Restaurants abound for any taste.

The Carriage House itself was comfortable, nicely decorated and there were many magazines giving great information on Austin and surrounding area. The kitchen was fully equipped, enough so that we ate in and cooked a meal one night. The weather was unseasonably cold so we appreciated the heating system, which worked very well. Free wi-fi was also appreciated. I would heartily recommend this listing to any couple wanting a comfortable base from which to explore Austin.
