Why Christina Shapter chose Riverside
We work really hard to make our units unique! There is an artistic touch everywhere you look. Not to mention, it's the best neighborhood in Austin. One mile from the heart of what makes Austin great!
What makes this Studio unique
We have a beautiful neighborhood lined with trees and rolling hills. I sometimes forget how close we are to downtown because we're surrounded by a nature reserve area known as Blunn Creek.

Love this place!
My friends and I come back here every spring because it is such a good shared space to hang out and connect! Highly recommend it!
Such a great, unique getaway spot
This is a fun, eclectic, unique place with a great backyard. Owners were awesome and very helpful and flexible for us. Will definitely be back!
Amazing!!
We had a great stay at Studio Azul on our annual Girl's trip with my mom, sister and niece. The room was very eclectic...especially the bathroom. The grounds were just amazing. And our hosts were very accommodating. Would definitely stay here again!!
We loved it!
Only stayed here for one night, but the Owner allowed us a late check out, which was SUPER awesome. The place is small but laid out in a smart and cozy way. The outdoor area is shared, which is cool, just make sure if you bring a dog that they are people and dog friendly. Overall, loved the place, would stay again.
Amazing location, awesome property
The location of the house was awesome. Less than a mile from south congress and all the great shops and restaurants. The actual house is so cool! Colorful and fun. Everything we needed was there. The property was beautiful and private for the most part. Far enough away from the hustle bustle of the city and surrounded by green plants and the running water in the pond in the backyard is so relaxing, but we were never more than 4 minutes from the closest Uber. We will definilty be back.
Location
Studio that can be used by traveling artists. Perfect for yoga, work outs, dancing, music rehearsal, and more...
