Casa De Desai is a great place to stay in Austin, if you are looking for a reasonably priced accommodation. Downtown is about a 10-15 min drive and pretty accessible. Sid was awesome and very helpful in communicating with me via email and texts regarding the reservation, especially considering the fact that he lives in San Francisco. Curren and David, the fellow housemates are extremely helpful and fun guys to live with! Curren even gave me a ride to downtown one of the nights as I did not want to drive! :)
I highly recommend Casa de Desai as it absolutely compliments the description and pictures provided by Sid.
I was so happy with my stay, that I decided to extend my reservation for a month! Cheers
