The Modern Craftsman Guest Cottage was one of our best airbnb experiences of all time. Crystal was extremely helpful with planning and the cottage was stocked with everything that you could possibly need, including a coffee grinder! Read Crystals suggestions for food and drink, you can't go wrong. We visited in the winter so the outside noise was very minimal, but we sure did enjoy the extremely close proximity to two fantastic bars (Craftsman, Stay Gold), the best bbq (La Barbecue), and the best tacos (Veracruz). The East side of Austin in general was the best possible location for us, being Chicagoans. I highly recommend that you book this airbnb if you want to have an authentic Austin experience and feel like a local!
