Susie's place was central to the events we were attending in Austin; we never had to drive more than 30 minutes to anything. The neighborhood felt safe and there are plenty of sidewalks for an evening or morning walk. The Keurig coffee machine made morning java easy, and the house dog, Garbo, is the sweetest and most well-behaved pooch we've met in a long time. We didn't use the kitchen or backyard, but both appear to be stocked for cooking and relaxing. If you're sensitive to strong aromas, there was some sort of candle/room freshener/or cleaning product in use that very strong. We made the best of it for the price of the stay, but that strong scent could be challenging for some. Susie is professional and easy to talk with.
