Our stay at Jennifer and Carl's place was a bliss, they made us feel welcome right away and kept making sure we had everything we needed every time our paths would cross. The Casita was comfortable, clean and spacious, filled with little details and attentions left by our hosts. The bus ride to downtown took under 15 minutes every time, and the bus stop was a 3 minute walk from the Casita. A big bonus that comes with the Casita is the independence and freedom to come and go, as you are living in the backyard of your hosts and do not have do disturb them every time you arrive or leave. Jennifer will gladly help find or direct you towards any thing you could be looking for, she also has a very helpful guidebook available in the cottage. We enjoyed every second spent at the cottage and would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a cozy and friendly place to stay in Austin.
