My husband and I really enjoyed our 3 night stay at Central Hacienda. The unit is beautifully decorated and clean - accurate to the pictures posted.

Staying in this neighborhood provides a unique experience that you would not get if you stayed in a hotel downtown (which I also did for a business conference earlier in the week). The variety in home styles, landscaping, vegetation, etc., is really fun. As others have noted, it's within easy walking distance to Rainey Street as well as many great restaurants and food trucks, and even downtown (~25 min).

Even though Dan was out of town during our visit, he still messaged a view times to make sure we were enjoying our stay. We also found Dan's recommendations of things to do, places to eat, etc. on this site to be very helpful. Finally, I'm not sure if it was a happy accident or intentional, but there was a map of Austin left in our unit that had been marked-up with all the recommended "things to do" circled. Although we typically rely on our phone apps for navigation, this was hugely helpful in planning out our itinerary for our stay as well as navigating through the parks and bike trails.

We loved our time in Austin and would absolutely recommend staying at Central Hacienda.
