Very clean house that allows pets and has a nice place for them in the yard to chill. Very convenient location, walking distance to south congress, several restaurants and bars, and a nice walking trail along the river that ends at a nice park. Very pleasant place that's comfortable.

What a lovely little home. Loved the bed set up and great shower! Quaint spot, easy to get to everything around Congress street if you know Austin, I would only suggest in the photos that you show the house from street view so people know it’s set back behind the other home in front.

A great stay in a great spot. Communication with the owner was outstanding… Very helpful and accessible… The house was clean and just as described. A great AC system for a hot Austin summer! The bedroom is upstairs, so perhaps not the best for anyone with mobility issues, but other than that, a perfect stay!
