We enjoyed coffee on the patio, sitting out by the fountain, games at the kitchen table and hanging out in the living room. Great location to enjoy Barton Springs-easy walk. Top notch communication with host who provided suggestions for our stay and made us feel welcome. All around amazing experience!"
