Ellen and Andy went above and beyond to give us a good experience, especially under the strange circumstances of the escalating situation with Corona Virus during our stay and SXSW festival being cancelled. They were readily available and on hand when needed and even very generously took us out on the canoe and to some great spots around Austin to see some live music while everything was still on. Their place is situated in the most beautiful and tranquil neighbourhood. We didn't have a car but were able to get around just fine with some brunch spots in walking distance and use of the free bikes. For getting in to town, an Uber ride was not expensive. The house itself has lots of character and quirky personal touches which make you feel at home. If you are a dog lover, their dogs are very sweet. All in all, under difficult circumstances we were able to make the best of it because of their hospitality and lovely home.
