Staying at Chalu's was my first Airbnb experience and as they say the 1st impression is a lasting impression. She far exceeded my expectations and I am glad that I chose her place as my first Airbnb. She is a very gracious host who goes out of her way to ensure her guests feel welcome and comfortable at her place. There were other guests staying at Chalu's while I was there and not once did I feel overwhelmed with anything. The neighborhood where she lives is peacefully quiet and only about 7 miles from downtown. Chalu holds great conversation, answers any questions you may have, and offers great suggestions for enjoying your stay in Austin. Not only would I stay here again but I would recommend Chalu's to others looking for a nice quiet and relaxing place to stay.
