This is one of the most unique experiences you can have staying in Austin! The neighbourhood is really nice, close to downtown with regular buses and good stores are within a 2 minute walk. I was working at UT and it only took me 20-25 mins to get to work in the morning. Sarah is really lovely, incredibly helpful and available if you need anything. The Shasta is in a private yard with outdoor furniture and a fire pit that really gave it a cool vibe. Inside, it was amazing. Fully functional kitchen, nice dining/work area (which took no time to turn into a bed), and enough room for a cosy private bathroom too! Nice modern touches like a built in Bluetooth stereo and usb chargers really made me feel at home. The bed was very comfortable, I'm 5' 11" and didn't feel cramped at all. Thoroughly recommended!
