My wife and I had only a short 2 day stay but we still enjoyed staying "Casa Flora!" Cynthia and Jim make you feel like you are visiting dear friends who want you to feel like you're at home. There were so many things available to us: towels/sunscreen for Barton Springs, umbrellas for the rain, mosquito spray (not necessary for their porch but came in helpful elsewhere in Austin), and an assortment of snacks and drinks. Whatever you could think of to make a vacation more enjoyable, Cynthia has thought of it. The location was so good that we wish we could've stayed longer to take more advantage of it. Also, it was very easy to communicate with Cynthia. Overall, a wonderful place to stay in Austin. And of course, the banana bread was delicious!
