My husband and I visited Austin for a long weekend. It was our first time in the city. We found Travis Heights to be a lovely residential little neighborhood. Being from Chicago, we would have appreciated a bit more within walking distance, but Austin is not much of a walking city anyway. Most everything we wanted to visit was a 5-10 minute drive. The restaurants and shops on South Congress were a 5 minute drive and $6 in an Uber. We never braved the 25 minute walk there.
The apartment is a fairly large space for 2 people. We enjoyed the little outdoor space in the afternoon. The mattress is super comfortable, and the hosts provided every convenience, including coffee and shampoo/conditioner. The space did feel a little dated, with somewhat worn kitchen and bathroom fixtures. However, the hosts keep the space very clean and have decorated it nicely.
Overall, we had a nice stay and feel this rental is a good value for the price!
