I came to Austin for a birthday trip with my mom and we had a great stay at the SoCo Guest House. The location could not be better (one block off South Congress, with its restaurants, bars, and shops) and street parking was very easy. Kris also provided an extensive welcome packet in advance that helped us figure out what to do, see, and eat in Austin. Despite its location one block from the nightlife we had no trouble with street noise and slept very soundly. Thanks for a great trip!
