Brian is a very communicative host even though I never saw him. I didn't have any issues at all and loved the house and it's furnishings. It felt very private and was quiet & relaxing. The beds are super comfortable and the washer & dryer was very convenient. Clarksville is a great little neighborhood in central Austin so it was easy to quickly drive to lots of things or even walk down the street for restaurants/cafes/groceries/etc. I previously lived in Austin for a number of years and came back to visit - I can say that this is a great spot to be. Would recommend and also stay again. Thanks, Brian!
