Our plan was to visit Austin to enjoy the City's music. The Art Alley Lofts are located in the heart of the South Congress area, we walked everywhere, and saw 5-6 bands daily. The apartment was very clean and comfortable. There was even a nice digital piano! There is a great market around the corner and lot's of restaurants in addition to the many music venues.
Nan was a wonderful host who greeted us with home brew, and made sure that we had recommendations for the best entertainment. In addition there is a nice outdoor patio, and to top it off a great record store across the way. When I return to Austin, I will be returning to the Art Alley Lofts
