Great location in pleasant neighorhood
Communicating with host, David, was excellent. He was very responsive prior to our arrival and especially once we arrived. The home was perfectly suited for my family and we had the opportunity to finally enjoy 5 days together in our cozy home, reconnecting with each other. And we celebrated Passover at the house, where again, David was very accomodating. I highly recommend this home that is just minutes from many Austin high lights .

Great house close to downtown
Great location with cheap Ubers to downtown. David recommended a few cool spots (check out Whislers!) and was very responsive and helpful. Definitely recommend.
