A lovely place in the Barton Hills, which is a great neighbourhood for exploring Austin (better with a car, though). Mary was extremely generous and hospitable, and the place was perfect for my needs. The location is surrounded by trees, up in the hills, but in the center of Austin. Barton Springs Pool (spring-fed) and the Barton Greenbelt are close and accessible. I will certainly try to stay again the next time I visit Austin.
