Chet is a great host! He was very communicative before and after booking, and provided very thorough directions for traveling to and gaining access into his home. Although I never met Chet, he was quick to respond to texts and made us feel welcome.

Chet's space was exactly as pictured in the listing. There is a small fridge, microwave, toaster oven, french press and electric kettle, which made it easy to make small meals and enjoy snacks in the house. The patio space was our favorite spot and perfect for morning coffee or an afternoon cocktail, although we didn't have an opportunity to spend much time there.

Within one block there are many places to eat, drink and shop (Austin Java, Einstein's, Thundercloud Subs, Food for Fitness, etc.), as well as Hope Outdoor Gallery, a working graffiti park, that was interesting to visit. The capitol is an easy 3/4 mile walk from the house when heading east on 12th St.

As of late Feb. 2016, the house next door to Chet's is undergoing extensive renovations and the construction site was a bit messy (there is no fence separating the two properties) but we never heard any noise.
