We definitely recommend Jenny and Tom's place, which is located in a very nice neighborhood. The apartment is lovely and I thank them for not putting bric-a-brac on every table and shelf so that we had places to put our things. Be sure to frequent Quack's 43rd Street Bakery as per their guidebook . We enjoyed the Italian restaurant, ASTI Trattoria located just across the street from the bakery. The apartment is very convenient to downtown sightseeing. And if you can't wait in line for Franklin or La Barbecue, try Terry Black's on Barton Springs Rd.--we found their brisket to be delicious!
