Anonymous, Dec 2016
Pros (+) Perfect match for grown-ups on State Street in Austin. Victorian, main house w/ reception & restaurant, rooms in separate buildings, but faithful, older victorian buildings. Tall rooms, updated baths. Slept in, so it must have been good..
Cons (-) I liked most everything.
