This was the perfect location for my son and I to stay at during SxSW. It's tucked away in a quiet neighborhood, but still within walking distance to downtown, congress, neighborhood restaurants and more. The host was fantastic and everything was clean and comfortable.

We had a wonderful stay at South River City. The accommodations were very clean and comfortable. The location was in a beautiful, quiet neighborhood and yet very convenient (walking distance) from shops and great places to dine. The host was friendly and helpful in making our stay a great experience.
