We had a wonderful stay in Austin at the studio on 3rd street. The accommodations were perfect for two people: a clean and private studio set back from a house that had a comfortable bed, full kitchen, living area, and bathroom. The lodging was exactly what we needed for spending most of our time in south Austin. The location is terrific: very close to SOCO restaurants and shopping, south Lamar, I-35 freeway access, and a short drive from the airport. The neighborhood is eclectic, quiet, and the neighbors were friendly. Simon was very communicative before our arrival and although we were unable to find a time to meet in person, he was friendly and available to answer our questions. The rental of the studio was a very smooth process and our arrival and departure were effortless. I would highly recommend renting this property from Simon for any travelers to Austin, but especially those who appreciate the originality and charm of south Austin.
