The Loft is a great little home away from home. It has a fantastic view of the Capital and it's just a block away if you want to take a tour. The Austin B-cycle rack is 1/2 block away. The nightlife on 6th is close enough to walk to (or stumble home from) but the music and crazies are 4+ blocks away. A great coffee shop is just around the corner and a Royal Blue Grocery a few blocks down Congress. There is noise from the buses accelerating up the hill from the traffic light. Bring earplugs if you're not used to the sounds of city traffic or you're a light sleeper. And yes, the bed is comfortable.
