Absolutely adorable former photo studio, now a brand new vacation rental. Located in the hippest part of town – SOCO (South Congress) with great access to everything that's best about Austin--shopping, restaurants, bars, and major music events.
The studio is an absolute jewel, with round windows, a loft bedroom, and high ceilings downstairs. The space super light and airy, and a happy laid-back Austin vibe. Opens onto a covered deck. Entry through a garden walkway. A real pleasure to be in!
Sleeps 2 or 3 comfortably, 5 if you really like each other.
New bathroom and kitchen. Private entrance, gardens, deck with gas grill, round windows, new high efficiency heat and air, backs onto a creek for great privacy, in a sweet central neighborhood. Super cute hipster music decor.

This home is even cuter in person than in the pictures. It is very close to South Congress and downtown Austin. This is a very clean and cute home and the home owner is amazing. She even included a coupon to a local place to eat and brochures about the area. She is such a fun and nice person and this home is great. I would highly recommend.Did you find this review helpful?

I loved this location and the laid-back feel of the neighborhood. We were in walking/biking distance to many great restaurants and shops. Downtown was just a short drive away. The accommodations themselves were clean, comfortable and perfectly suited to our needs. A great slice of life in Austin. Can't wait to go back!Did you find this review helpful?

My husband and I stayed here for two nights because we got tickets to see our favorite comedian at Austin City Limits on a Friday night. After driving from Dallas, we were happy to see our cute studio waiting for us, all clean, very comfy (love the ambient lighting and the lamps!) Fun to navigate the stairs up to the bathroom (although our dog had no idea where we went when we went upstairs--for her, it was like we disappeared into a portal.) Our dog also loved her stay, and we were grateful that we could bring her for her first visit to the city and not have to board her. Jana was very sweet and recommended a great taco place. Loved the neighborhood--easy walk to 1st Street and Congress, both good places to find yummy food trailers. Cute, clean, comfy. Thank you Jana, we'll be back!Did you find this review helpful?

This was a wonderful place to stay when my friend and I went to the Junior League Christmas Affair. Very, very convenient to everything and everywhere downtown. We felt very safe and secure in this studio in a sweet and quite neighborhood. The studio was very clean, spacious, and full of light; nicely furnished; and Jana was very helpful in every way. Thanks Jana, we'll see you again! Janie & DebbyDid you find this review helpful? Yes | No Helpful votes: 1/1
