Simons place is exactly as described. However, the place looks bigger in person and offers more natural lights than shown in the pictures. It has all the necessary amenities and the place is located in a nice, quiet, and safe neighborhood, but only a walking distance from S. Congress, S. 1st Street, Zilker Metropolitan Park, the downtown, supermarket H-E-B, Greetings from Austin and I love you so much Mural. He offers two bikes upon request, but we didn't get to use them much because we prefer walking over biking and on the other days when it was rainy we used Lyft.
We didn't get to meet Simon in person, but the communication with him was easy. He replied quickly to all of our messages and even contacted us to check on us if we are doing OK. Due to our flight schedule, he let us check in early and check out late.
We definitely recommend staying here and we hope to be back soon.
