My husband, 2 pups and I stayed for a 3 day weekend and traveled by car. She was extremely accommodating of our 2 pups, went above and beyond with thoughtful details for our stay, and stayed in great communication the whole time. Her home is cozy and has a very relaxing vibe with her unique decor.
Location was great for us as. Without traffic, it is about 15 min from downtown. I think during busy hours it took us about 30 min. We liked being able to get away from the hustle and bustle of downtown, but just close enough to be able to get to it when we wanted.
She offered great tips when it came to dog friendly activities (Austin is sooo dog friendly and we were able to take our dogs everywhere with us for 2 1/2 days!).
The room and bathroom were both clean and very welcoming. We were out and about a lot and therefore were not able to enjoy her cute little atrium and living space areas.
I highly recommend Sheila and her home as a place to stay in Austin!
