    Love the history and character of this property! The patio was our favorite spot. It’s conveniently located to plenty of entertainment and we especially loved the Paramount Theatre on Congress. Be careful when turning on the bathroom sink, it’ll getcha! Thank you for the wonderful hospitality!

    We enjoyed our stay very much. The property is very centrally located, very comfortable, and beautifully decorated. The communication with Zoe was easy and we did not have any issues. There is parking at the back, and we were able to keep the car at the property and walk around for most of the time. We will definitely be back next time we are in Austin
