My husband and I stayed in and worked from Paul's place for a month just so we could escape our own apartment and safely explore a new city. We had a wonderful time, and even though we spent a ton of time in the space, it was very comfortable. I wish it had been a little warmer so we could have taken more advantage of the ample outdoor seating, but alas. We did enjoy a few walks/runs around the neighborhood, and visited the great brewery that's about a 15 minute walk away.
In our final week, Austin experienced the cold spell and winter weather that was all over the national news. We were incredibly lucky that we never ended up losing power, but Paul was so helpful in bringing us flashlights and extra batteries in case we did, and in offering food. Great hospitality!
