Best value in Austin, hands down. The loft is exactly as photographed and Dana's coffee tips were gold.

The private entrance meant we never felt like we were staying in someone's house. Quiet hours are real here — best sleep we've had while traveling.

Great little space. The exterior stairs are steep with big luggage — but the listing warns you. Would absolutely stay again.

Demo · the three booking-flow modal moments (the live "Request to stay" button opens the middle one)

Shared "stay ticket" motif across all three. Waitlist = progressive disclosure: the flexibility options render ONLY when availability analysis finds >1 viable shape (exact / contiguous-subset / anchored) — most guests see the simple version. Composes with the range/entries modals on extras.html.
