Jeannie and Don's loft is lovely and was the perfect base for a couple of days exploring Austin. It was super hot when I visited but the apartment was always cool thanks to the fans and AC. It's a spacious apartment with high ceilings, a comfortable bed and an open floor plan. There were also thoughtful touches like milk and water in the fridge and products for use in the bathroom, which were very much appreciated.
The apartment is about a 10 min walk from South Congress Avenue, which has plenty of shops and restaurants along it to keep you busy during your stay! There's free parking on the street across from the house with no restrictions.
Because the loft is above a garage, you do need to go up a spiral staircase to get in. I had two heavy suitcases so it was a bit perilous lugging them up, but not something that would put me off staying by any means, just something to bear in mind for anyone with mobility issues or (like me) an inability to pack light!
I really enjoyed staying at Jeannie and Don's apartment. I definitely want to return to Austin again some day, and I shall be looking their place up again when I do!
