The Macro house is an amazing place, I highly recommend it if you are looking for a place in Austin. I stayed for 3 months in Spring-Summer 2021 and can only say the very best.
The place is close to public transport and there are also a number of nice local to visit around (i.e. Nervous Charlie's bagel shop and Epoch Coffee are certainly worth to visit and are only a 5min walk away). Location-wise a good choice.
The room's interior was simple but clean and contained all relevant furniture (table, chair, bed, wardrobe). The bathroom was shared with the neighboring room but this has never caused any issues during the 3 months that I stayed here.
The public spaces are shared but you got a well equipped main kitchen as well as smaller kitchen areas in the hall ways. There is many other amenities (TV room, pool table, piano, collections of board games and many more). All other residents that I interacted with were very kind and positive. There are regular house events to join.
If you are interested in meeting people and are not specifically looking for a high-end resort to stay at, then the Macro house is an amazing pick.
