This is a great location for your stay in Austin. Everything you need is in within walking distance or a short taxi ride. We didn't rent a car for our stay, and we were a little nervous about that, but we didn't need it at all. The apartment is very clean and the bed is super comfortable. Plenty of towels are provided, which is a huge plus. There is a flight of stairs leading to the front door, so if you have mobility issues, this would not work for you. This is not a problem for us. Highly recommend staying here for a local, downtown feel for Austin. Great place!
