Thomas was a very communicative host and quite proactive in dealing with checkin, checkout, and issues that came up. The room is quite small, so I wouldn't recommend more than 1 person. There are a couple of places to eat within walking distance, but not much else.
We were about a 15 min/$12 Uber ride from downtown.
If small, affordable, and just off the edge of the downtown SXSW chaos is your speed, then this place is ideal.
