There are three very clear reasons why when staying in Austin you should consider staying with Roger:

- firstly, his home provides a very comfortable stay indeed. The private twin room is clean and presentable with comfy beds, radio alarm clock, and TV. You have your own bathroom and shower. It felt like a hotel experience. And with access to the living room, kitchen and utilities, it feels like a home away from home.

- the location is more than ideal. A 15-20 minute walk across the river to down-town and the trendy Eastside (obviously super quick 5-10 mins in uber); also the boutiquey stores of SoCo are a 15 min walk south of Roger's place. Seriously, the perfect location for any trip to Austin

- Roger is an absolute gem of a host. So helpful and accommodating, ensuring that I got to the place ok and that I was well catered for during my stay, letting me know about what's on. A very warm and kind individual, a thoroughly good guy, very easy to be around. (He also introduced me to Bob's Burger's for which I will be eternally grateful.)

My stay with Roger pretty much made my trip in Austin. Thanks so much.
