Perfect location, helpful hosts

We had a parent's weekend away and this pad was perfect for the two of us, and the location was very walkable to plenty of restaurants and bars! Our hosts were very responsive and allowed us to stay past our checkout time when our flight wasn't until later in the day (no other guests were scheduled that day). Would definitely stay again!

This is a nice basement apartment if you're looking for an affordable place to stay within a short walk to lots of restaurants. The apartment is nothing fancy, but the bed is nice and the shower is hot.

Basement apartment

The apartment was easy to enter, just down about five stairs from the yard. The decor was convenient and well planned. The art on the wall was interesting. The bed was comfortable. The kitchen efficient. The only media available was Netflix but I wasn’t here to watch television. While not downtown, it was only a mile or so to Sixth Street restaurants and bars. I walked one evening there and back without a problem. The Texas state cemetery was about two blocks away which suited me. Many interesting and historical memorials.

Cute studio in great location!

This is the second time we have stayed here. We like to come to Austin every so often for different music events. This studio is in a great location for us and very convenient. We are able to walk to most places we want to go. Julie and Francois are always very friendly and happy to help if we need anything. Will definitely be staying here again!

Great location in Austin, TX, kind of hard to locate in the dark with this being a basement home. Apartment was stocked with all needed amenities, and perfect for what we needed! Apartment is walking distance from Franklins BBQ. Awesome BBQ, for sure worth the wait!

Live like a local

This is as close to living like a local as you can get, being a tourist. The apartment was clean, neat and well organized, with everything we needed for a 4-day weekend. Julie was very communicative as to any needs we had. Best of all, the location is perfect for getting a good feel for East Austin.

First Austin Experience

Had a fantastic weekend in Austin with my brother. The basement is detached from the house and we could come and go as we pleased. Great central location to both downtown and East Austin destinations. Julie was very helpful with suggestions and flexible with times! Great overall experience and will be renting again if we find ourselves back in the Austin area!

Nice little place!

We had a pleasant stay in this nice little basement apartment. It was clean and comfortable with a separate sitting area to watch TV. It was really nice to have extra blankets, an electric teapot and coffee. Thank you for thinking of all those things!!!
