The residents at Community First Village run the inn with direction from a manager. They are still working on their communication and overall flow to make it a positive experience for the inn guests. For that part, I'd give it an average rating. However, I think they are honestly working on improving. The village itself is a worthwhile experience. I spent Thanksgiving with the residents and enjoyed seeing and learning about the work that they are doing at this community. I didn't experience the store and some other things because it was a holiday weekend. If you're drawn to serve and volunteer, I think you'll love it it at the Village. Some notables: It's right at the entrance, so there's a lot of traffic noise. I had someone try to enter the unit twice in the evening and that shook me a little. It's also lit all night because of location. So if you're a light sleeper, bring eye mask and earplugs. There is a grocery store nearby. It's a healthy walk, but doable. It's a short Uber/cab right to downtown Austin. Austin is awesome! Give yourself enough time to explore. I only had 1 day to explore, could've done 2 or 3 easily. Overall super friendly town. Lastly shout out to Pablo. My conversations with him about the Village were very interesting and he checked in several times to make sure that I was ok.
