Great location and space has lot of character and charm. We were in town for Thanksgiving holiday and A&M vs. UT game 2025. The location was very close to campus and walkable to the game and tailgate prior.

Dear Sharon!!!! Thanks so much for the review! I’m truly happy that the house was a good fit for your Thanksgiving trip. The A&M vs. UT game was such a big milestone for the city this year—I’m so glad the location made it easy for you to walk to the stadium and enjoy the tailgates without dealing with the 2025 game-day traffic! It was a pleasure hosting your group, and I would definitely love to have you back next time you're in Austin.. !!!

Charming Victorian condo on the 2nd floor (stairs). Large spaces and king beds were the highlights. Located near campus. Communication with property management was timely and professional. Things to consider would be parking, as it is street parking.
