Biking trails were a favorite daytime activity...Shoal Creek (start between West End and the warehouse district, goes North about 5 miles to Peace Park), Lady Bird Lake trails both East and West, just biking the cool SoCo and Barton Springs neighborhoods. All of the above would be great for walking as well.
Nearby Saxon Pub for early evening or nightly music.
Jeremy’s place has everything you need...right down to washer and dryer. Very comfortable and quiet.
