The best hosts are those who are attentive: this can be both to details in their space, and also in communication. Gabriel was both. We had a fluke incident that caused us some trouble getting in on the first day. Gabe called us back quickly and helped us get in, and then called his handyman to fix the larger issue. It was resolved within an hour. Basically Gabriel jumped over hurdles for us, and I really valued the stay. I have submitted the same film to two other Austin film festivals, and should they be accepted, I will look at Gabriel’s place first. Definitely recommend it.
