We loved Lydia's place in East Austin. It is perfectly located on a side residential street yet walking distance to LOTS of fun authentic restaurants, bars and shops. Be sure to check out Blue Owl Brewery...the best sour beers!
The house is basic and comfortable. We had 4 people and the 2 rooms were perfect. The kitchen has a big fridge, nice stove and the only suggestion would be to have a skillet...though this forced us to eat all our meals out and really enjoy the food culture of Austin.
Highly recommend!
