My boyfriend and I are from the area, and decided on a staycation to celebrate five years (and have a little escape from the kids). We picked the perfect spot.
Lois is such a cool person and her space is classic Austin. She has poured more than 20 years of art and love into her home. We were near all of our favorite places. It was a short drive for brunch at Kerbey Lane (where we fell in love five years before). ATX TIP: Use the NoWait app to avoid standing in line during peek hours.
Staying in the tiny home, you might opt out of sleeping in the loft if you tend to get up during the night. Then again, we were happy to sleep downstairs. That area is full of happy and magic.
If you want to have a genuine Austin experience, stay with Lois. She is a gem.
