Cynthia and Jim have the perfect place to stay if you are looking to stay in downtown Austin. I was in town for the week on business, and their apartment was a wonderful place to stay. My fiancée joined me for the weekend, and we found the location to be the perfect walking distance to delicious restaurants, shopping, and downtown Austin, where a music festival was going on. The weather was usually cold, but the apartment was always warm and inviting. The bed is comfortable to sleep on, there is a sink, microwave and fridge, as well as a wash and dryer if that is needed. Jim and Cynthia were wonderful hosts, as well as their friendly Aussie dogs. Cynthia was so kind as to stock the fridge and have snacks available in the room- she even baked us a huge plate of fresh banana blueberry bread! They are a fantastic couple with a wonderful apartment. If I return to Austin, I will definitely try to stay with them again.
