Enjoy room with Covid-cautious owner in spacious, beautiful home a few miles from airport. New flooring, walk-in closet, queen futon/bed with spring mattress and desk for laptop. Private remodeled bath next door. Friendly, respectful host is working professional at home, and keeps place quiet. Walkable neighborhood within miles of great parks, including one with spring-fed pools, and of S Austin's cool strolling options. 1,200-sq. foot house close to the airport and on bus lines has guest room and bath on a separate front hallway from owners, and only pet, a parakeet, is on the opposite end of the house. Standing lamp and work desk among other amenities. Complimentary free wifi, and wall-mounted, 30 in. HDTV with a roku device to access several free movie channels or your favorite accounts. Your home access is by the front doorway, and I will often use garage door access instead during your stay to reduce surface contact. Sprays and hand sanitizer will be available for cleaning kitchen surfaces after preparing food (and doorknobs, etc., as wanted). I appreciate knowing who the guest is. House rules include having a complete Profile that includes a personal photo that shows your full face (not a pet or anything else), verification that includes "government ID" (which includes driver's license or passport), and responding to questions in advance of booking about reasons for your stay. No smoking or vaping/heavy perfumes/pets have been allowed in rental rooms, and no smoking/vaping/e-cigs or pets are permitted on property. I take the COVID-19/coronavirus pandemic and its impact on the health and safety of you as a guest, myself, and our families seriously. Proof of most recent, bivalent COVID shot must be provided before arrival. If you have COVID, have flu-like symptoms, or have been in contact within the past week before your visit with anyone who has symptoms or has been diagnosed, you must inform me to discuss the booking, as I will do for you. I require a short-term rental contract for staying on site, and background check through e-renter.com (would share contract wording before you make the reservation).

Check-in 4 pm or later; check out at 10 am or earlier. With Covid infections increasing, I require proof of negative Covid test that was taken in the three days before move in, getting the new Covid vaccine that becomes available soon within 7 days of availability, and a willingness to self-test for Covid, using a kit that I'd provide, should you develop any flu or cold-like symptoms. Open access to the living room, kitchen, laundry room, front porch, and back patio as well as the guest bedroom and guest bathroom. Off-street parking is available. No unbooked visitors on-site without advanced text or email confirmation, which is true for me too. For everyone's protection, we may ask the guest who made the reservation to show a photo ID before check-in, and proof of the most recent COVID vaccine required before check-in. 9 pm sound curfew in Austin and the same indoors. Will keep the night light on in the rental hallway so you can come and go as you, please. You'll have half the storage space for food in the wide, fridge and on pantry shelves; the microwave and coffee machine, all appliances are available for use. All utensils, glasses, pots, and pans are also available for your use, as well as dishwashing detergent and cleaner for clean up after each meal. I'm a host who will be respectful of your privacy. Please do communicate your needs and be respectful, and we'll get along great!
