We loved our time in Austin and couldn't have asked for a better location. The Cottage was very clean upon arrival and never notice their two dogs. It was nice and quiet. The kitchen was well stocked with breakfast goodies and coffee & tea. There are many great local restaurants within walking distance or even a short bike ride and only a few minutes from downtown by car. The bed was very comfortable and had great heat and a/c. Would stay again when back in Austin. Great host and helpful with local suggestions.
