Rashaka is an incredible host and his home is the perfect place to stay in Austin. It is exactly as he describes it. Not only is his home clean and well outfitted for both short or long-term stays it is a quick Uber ride away from downtown Austin and a short walk away from food, coffee, and bars. The neighborhood feels safe to run or walk in. Rashaka is also a great host. He is responsive and follows through on anything he says he will do. He is willing to help you out in a jam even when it's inconvenient for him just to make sure your stay is excellent. Even with a pandemic in the background he was willing to go the extra mile for me during my stay. As a graduate student with work for school and an internship to handle I was grateful that he has top notch internet in the apartment and the community was very quiet during my stay. If I return to Texas I would definitely stay in Rashaka's gem again and I highly recommend it to anyone who is visiting Austin!
