For SXSWi 2012, I stayed with a group of 4 at the Empty Nest. From first contact to checkout, Gina was just wonderful. As we corresponded in the lead-up to the conference, she patiently dealt with my dispatches regarding an ever-shifting group of guests. Once we got into town (all on different flights), she handled not one, not two, but three separate waves of guest arrivals! One day during our stay when it was raining, she even offered to drive two of us downtown so that we wouldn't have to walk or try to call a cab. And to update a previous review, this place definitely now has Wi-Fi. We loved our stay and would recommend Gina's place to anyone looking for a cozy place close to downtown Austin.
