Irina's place is very close to the coolest area of Austin, South Congress with plenty of bars, cool shops, and walking area. The place has access to a pool and is relatively close by foot to HEB, the local supermarket, and well connected to the city center by buses, bikes, etc.
Recommended for longer stays. The building is next to a bar but which was closed a month after we arrived and will probably remain closed during the pandemic, but if not it was really loud at night.
