My husband, two medium sized dogs, and I stayed at this mid-century duplex unit with it's own heavily treed backyard for a short weekend trip in Austin during the month of September. It was a good location for our purpose of hiking around Barton Creek, hanging out at the park/trails along the Colorado river, and partaking in Austin's awesome vegan restaurants. The price was very reasonable too. It was within easy walking distance of a nice Central Market, a Cinema, and ice cream parlor (although we didn't partake) and short driving distance to downtown and SoCo. While it was right off busy 290 and Lamar, it was a quiet neighborhood. The shower had great water pressure, which is important to so many of us. The furnishings and kitchen were minimally appointed, which was fine with us for the great price, but dusting of many surfaces and floor mopping had been neglected for some time. In case you need quiet at night to sleep, the AC worked but made the most noise I had ever heard before. Dog owners please note: while the backyard is fenced and separate from the other unit, the neighbors in both units of the duplex next door share the chainlink fence and have dogs that like to bark that might trigger your dog and one in particular was extremely aggressive a couple of times he/she was let out while we were enjoying the backyard. The first time the owner snatched the dog right up. The second time they did not and we were driven inside to keep the calm.
