About this property

Stay Close to Soco, Downtown, and Artsy East Austin

== Currently accepting rentals of a month or more ==

Vacation, business, or extended stays. Hotel bills can add up quickly on longer trips, and this South Austin location is a fun, affordable alternative. We've had many guests comment on how spacious it is. The 600 sq ft fully furnished suite is on the lower level of a 1950's home. There is a queen-sized bed, sitting area with sofa, kitchen, bathroom, and patio overlooking a large yard shaded with beautiful big oak trees.

This is a quiet, secluded setting, where the Texas sun filters through the branches of wonderful old live oaks, yet it is just a short way to all the activity of South Congress, Sixth Street, and the downtown area. Enjoy everything Austin has to offer with a visit here! Also close and convenient access to the airport.

Please let us know if you have any questions about the layout, and keep in mind that there are three people living in the house upstairs. The studio sleeping area is below the upstairs kitchen and noise does come through the floors from activity overhead, walking around, talking, chairs moving. Someone may be hungry and fixing a sandwich or a pizza at 2 or 3 in the morning. For guests who are sensitive to noise or light sleepers, this might something to consider when deciding whether to stay here. Also, there is an interior stairway from the studio going up to a shared laundry room. The stairway is behind the wall seen in the photos at the end of the room, however there is not a separate door closing off the studio from this stairway. There is one thermostat for the AC in the house and the lower studio, and if any adjustments are needed to the temperature we will change the setting for visitors in the studio.

Peaceful stay close to downtown
Great backyard porch with rocking chairs and plenty of birds and squirrels hanging out. Hot water always available, laundry and kitchen appliances all work fine. Good location for a bike ride to the greenway, bus stops within walking distance and close to grocery/fast food/convenience stores. Nice couch and bed, new carpet. 10/10 would stay again.

Chillest spot
It was laid back, quiet, and super close to everything literally a 5-10 minute drive with traffic. Beautiful neighborhood with a lot of trees, and if i needed anything I was accommodated.

Carpet needs replacing
Our stay was not ideal. We had noticed a musty odor typical of basements when checking in, but during the middle of the night, a urine-like stench became noticeable and steadily grew stronger. Turning on all 3 fans & keeping the sliding door open helped somewhat but we still had difficulty tolerating the smell. We contacted Karen the next day because we had other concerns as well, and she came in person to discuss these issues but was not willing to consider a refund. Luckily, a relative was in the area for business & we ended up leaving the premises early and staying with her. While Karen had taken care to spotlessly clean before our arrival, we were disappointed with this VRBO and strongly urge her to replace the carpeting.

Quite neighborhood, lush garden, and we slept well
I spent a week there for a music festival. It was about a 5-7 dollar uber ride into town, the proximity from things were important to me, and the place worked but I should of rented bikes. The place is clean and quiet and Karen in a nice host
