The view, especially at sunset is absolutely beautiful. With the gorgeous building and the view of the water, it felt like we were in the Mediterranean. The host was attentive, accommodating and kind. The space was clean, had everything we needed and then some. The parking was a little tricky for the unit we were in but definitely workable and absolutely worth it! It is in a neighborhood but close to great restaurants, grocery store and pharmacy. It was nice to be able to run quickly for things without having to sit in Austin traffic while being close enough to activities and points of interest to make it convenient.
