We stayed at Kim and Ben's place during our short trip to Austin, and it is one of my favorite airBNB's that I've stayed at so far. The place feels brand new, modern, and has a great location. There are high ceilings giving it a very spacious feel, along with other elements that really make the building feel homey and just well-designed.
There's ample natural light from plentiful large windows, but also it's very private, because many of the windows are frosted from the floor up until just above eye level. It is a smart way to do windows: you forget you have neighbors next door.
The location is quiet, making it easy to sleep; there were no loud noises such as dogs barking next door.
The beds were very comfortable -- so much so that we messaged our hosts asking for the mattress model afterwards.
Our hosts replied to our booking request and followup inquiries very quickly and thoroughly. We asked them for recommendations in the area for things such as Texas BBQ and Sunday brunch, and their suggestions did not disappoint! During our stay they respected our privacy, and we never saw them in person (which is how we typically like it with our hosts) -- privacy is important to me which is why I always rent the detached units such as this one.
We requested a very late check in due to taking an evening flight in, and Ben and Kim accommodated this request easily, since the unit has a digital combination lock that they can switch between guest stays.
I would absolutely stay here again for future Austin trips. It's just so conveniently located, the space just feels high class, and the hosts are top notch.
