I had never been to Austin but was taking a class and wanted to stay nearby so I could use Uber for transportation. I looked at everything available in the area and this one stood out above the others. I hoped it would be as nice as it looked online. Oh my goodness! I can't imagine having stayed anywhere else! Liz checked on me immediately by text when I arrived. I told her it looked perfect and I wished I had thought to bring some wine. Immediately Liz texted me back about grocery delivery from nearby and I had it in about two hours! The same day!
As for the place itself... it is marvelous. It is a standalone unit behind the house, which made me feel very safe to be at the far end of their driveway. The locked entry system worked perfectly. The room itself is laid out like a studio apartment - kitchen on one wall, living area across from that, large comfortable bed to the side and full bath off that. I will tell you the pictures do not do it justice. It had the feel of a small cabin in the woods to me.
The kitchen cupboards were fully stocked. I could have cooked a turkey dinner in there! Nothing was left to chance. The bathroom was fully stocked as well - iron, ironing board, hair dryer, nice soaps in the shower.
Back to the kitchen - Keurig coffee machine, fully loaded, all kinds of creamers, sugar, sweetener, etc. And a basket of snacks! I immediately opened the pack of goldfish while I waited for my wine and groceries to arrive. In the fridge were sodas and water. Liz provided everything perfectly.
Not only that, I contacted her a couple times with questions. She told me where the nearest Walmart was and she checked on me a couple times. It was just the right amount of hospitality without being nosy. I was there for a week and would stay there again if I could. I'm just afraid she'll raise the price - it is that good!
