The mermaid place was very beautiful and cozy with the whole environment being a big piece of art, made of many smaller pieces of art. Amenities are excellent, but the futons on the floor were rough on my husband’s back. Other than that, the hosts were great and we enjoyed meeting Lois and Stan.Highly recommend Ubers or other ride-shares to get to local eateries because parking is difficult to navigate. Really enjoyed the scooters in the city! ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/47f3f4ea-8a59-454f-b22d-6166373add60-1765584389871.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/836ed7ce-0f3c-4819-9299-d4cc15c05f01-1765584396167.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/e8573587-633e-4111-93bb-d8d701bc9e86-1765584395741.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Cindy K.

This place is prime for access to the Zilker - Barton Springs - Downtown areas. I was able to walk to Trek Bicycles on Lamar in 20 min to rent a bike. As for the accommodations, they are very colorful, charming, and quiet. You’re in a garden, so don’t be shocked if a water bug shows up - it’s part of the fun. ##### Marcus Stayed 5 nights in Oct 2025 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Callie B. 23 Mar 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Peaceful Haven!

Lois is really great and really has created a Peaceful Haven - so much so that the two teens I was with hated leaving every time an activity was suggested (if you know teenagers, you know that’s high praise!). The space is super clean and well taken care of all around, on top of it being enchanting and a literal piece of art. The teens slept in the loft - the ladder was a bit treacherous for me (not the ladder’s fault!).The bathroom is small but it’s a small place, so not a problem. Lots of towels and toiletries to use.Keep in mind when eating out the fridge is basically a dorm/cube fridge. A to go box from Home Slice will not fit :-)Lastly - location, location, location. You can’t beat the location, especially if you want to spend time at Zilker Park.We loved our stay and will be back! ##### Amanda H.
