I'm loving it so far. It's not "stable" in the traditional sense, but no distractions and I can get a ton done. Internet is easy to find, places are pretty nice and affordable, and it's quiet. I came down here to finish a startup I've been talking about for ages but never finished due to the distractions in SF.
AirBnb has some great finds, especially if you go with a few friends. Nice places, good internet and not too expensive.
