I was in Austin for a month and this was an excellent base for UT-Austin. The Drag, the campus, lots of bars & taco places are walkable and the buses to downtown are only a 10-minute walk away. Amrin was really responsive and helpful, e.g. when I asked for additional kitchen saucepans for my long-ish stay. As other reviewers have said, this can be quite noisy 3-4 nights per week due to its proximity to a fraternity house. If you're in Austin to party, I guess you won't mind that! But if you're in town for longer and you're working, do bear this in mind!
