I am so glad I found Kristin's Airbnb while my travel plans were on hold due to COVID-19. I spent a month in her charming, comfortable, tastefully decorated casita. It was the best decision I could have made. By the time I left I felt like one of the family! Kristin filled the casita with thoughtful amenities, including some games, a hair dryer, and lots of toiletries. I had absolutely everything I needed. I cooked all my meals in the well-equipped, functional kitchen. The bed linens were soft and comfy, the mattress was the perfect firmness. The neighborhood is a quiet refuge but in an ideal location to explore Austin’s lively SoCo neighborhood and beyond. Kristin provided lots of helpful info. about bars and eateries (open for takeout when I was there), shops and other fun spots. There’s a spacious wooden deck between Kristin’s house and the casita, where I enjoyed some meals and relaxing evening cocktails. Kristin is an excellent communicator and responded quickly to my texts. The casita has a key code, which made coming and going easy. I didn’t have a car and walked everywhere, including a nearby grocery store, although there is a dedicated parking space if needed. I am so grateful to Kristin for providing such a safe, cozy home while I hunkered down during COVID-19. She was very careful about observing all the guidelines to keep me and the environment safe. This was my best Airbnb experience to date, and I’ve stayed in over 50 the past two years. I give Kristin a 5+++ rating and am grateful to call her and her family my friends.
