We rented this place for a girl's reunion weekend and it was a perfect location! We were able to walk home at night from most places we wanted to go. The mattresses were insanely comfortable and they left us a bunch of great snacks to enjoy! We took advantage of the lounge area when we arrived before check-in time and were able to leave our suitcases there for a few hours while we started exploring Austin. Also, Voodoo Donuts is almost right across the street! 6th street is quite an experience and it was fun to be so close to all the action, but the apartment wasn't any more noisy than my own city apartment. The window does overlook a public toilet, which didn't bother us, but might bother some.
