Candyce + Raphiel Candyce During your stay Happy to give recommendations...cool places are always popping up in Austin, and there's the old, steady places too. You're ideally situated to take in the cool, or chill out as needed. I'm pretty quiet, early to rise (cat), but, you're most welcomed to come and go as you please. Other things to note Your quiet room is your domain, but note there's no kitchen (as it doubles as my work space) or common space access besides the shared bath. Appreciate shoes-off. Many active visitors say they've been able to truly rest deeply when here, which is what I'm aiming for. Registration Details Exempt
