Summary: The host was very clear about what amenities were provided and the space available, and it fit our needs perfectly since we planned to be out and about for most meals. It is very close to a lot of Austin staples like Zilker and the Broken Spoke. The host has binders of recommendations which were helpful and also shared customized recommendations in person. If we return to Austin, we'd likely stay here again!
