Great Location

I stayed here for the ACL music festival, and I could not have asked for a better location. The property was wonderful, clean, well furnished, and comfortable. The prices go up significantly for ACL, but I guess that’s to be expected.

Nice place with a view

Enjoyed our stay here! The unit was cozy and clean with a great location. The beautiful view of the city off the small balcony made the climb up the 2 flights of stairs worthwhile.Note to owner: The upstairs toilet flapper valve leaks and the water would run to refill the toilet every hour or so which woke us up at night.

Just Right

Far enough from downtown to be quiet, but with a stellar skyline view off the back deck. 7-minute walk to the indescribable Barton Springs. Don't Miss 'Em! Nice artwork, good clean digs. I recommend!

Excellent Austin Location

This was a great place to stay and visit Austin. Easy walking distance to Barton Springs pool and that entire area. Short Uber ride from S Congress and other popular areas. The apartment has a nice living area and a loft bedroom. Great view of downtown from the porch. Perfect for a solo traveler or a couple. The market next door has everything you could need for a short stay. Highly recommended!

Great location, comfortable loft

Location was a short drive to downtown, a short stroll to the Zilker Park trail system, which we enjoyed (walked around Barton Springs pool and down to the Colorado River, which they call Town Lake or Lady Bird Lake). Neighborhood was quiet. We never needed to buy anything at the market next door, but we went in to see what they had - like a gas station convenience store with a sandwich deli, extensive wine selection, and walkin beer cooler. Nice to have close by. We stayed over Thanksgiving when visiting our son who lives there - so used the kitchen to make a dinner for 4. All good there, although dishwasher is very noisy. Having a 2nd small bathroom with shower in the bedroom loft area was very nice. We're pretty particular with pillows and like firm mattresses. Bed was soft, pillows not good. But the place is cute, clean, and comfortable (we have youtube tv, so the tv worked great for us too). We'll stay here again for our future Austin visits.

I had a work trip in Austin that was unexpectedly extended. This place was amazing! It’s relaxing and the host is very responsive. I can’t wait to stay there again the next time I’m in Austin. I highly recommend staying there even if it’s just a staycation.

Best location for couples/small party

We loved this property! It was small, just 2 people, but the location can not be beat! So close to many things. The next door market was also very convenient. It was very clean and comfortable. I'll probably look to stay again.

Convenient location near the downtown and in the heart of many outdoor activities.

The place was great more than enough room for my wife and I. The condo was walking distance from many outdoor activities such as Barton springs pool, kayaking, and bike trails that we actually used to bike into the downtown on a number of occasions (one time to see the bats under the bridge). The area is chill and clean which was nice coming back home too after nights out on E. 6th, Rainey St., etc. You can also walk a couple of blocks from the condo to find a number of restaurant/bars + food trucks. Getting Lyfts/Uber also very easy from this location. The property manager Sean was also very accommodating and let us stay a little later on our check out day so we weren’t displaced while waiting for our flight back. Would recommend condo and location.

Awesome condo in a cool neighborhood!

This was my first vrbo experience and i have to say it was pretty cool. Sean was very accommodating and quick to respond to my questions about anything. I forgot to grab my work phone when we checked out and he went to the trouble of sending it back to me ASAP which was very cool of him. The condo itself is pretty neat...love the decor and the loft set up. I was wondering how i would survive without the amenities of a hotel but there is a mini mart within walking distance that has everything you could possibly need including an awesome beer and wine selection. We also order d a couple of sandwiches from there which to my surprise were delicious!!! $4-$8 uber or Lyft ride to most cool spots. Overall great experience. Thanks Sean!!!

Great place to stay!

Just stayed here this past week - and what a wonderful experience it was! The location is excellent, as it is in a cute, safe neighborhood that is pretty close to all the sights (and Lyft was really quick to bring us to anything not in walking distance). The host was also incredibly helpful and hospitable. Overall, just a great experience and a great trip :)

Nice apartment, great location

This was an excellent place to stay to visit Austin. It is close to downtown but on a quiet street. For runners and walkers, the location is excellent as it is only 1/4 mile from a great trail system that follows Barton Creek and the banks of the Colorado River. There is a small market next door with provisions (you should check the expiration date on perishable items as some of the ones we wanted had expired a few weeks prior). There is a good food truck location less than a mile away. The only issue we encountered is that the Internet connection is very slow (4Mbps download with high latency). If you need a good connection, you may not be satisfied with this. Also, be aware that there isn't cable TV, just over-the-air broadcasts. If neither of those things bothers you, this is a great place and I highly recommend it.
