My sister and I stayed at Joey & Steph’s place for a weekend. It is a beautiful, roomy space on a quiet street and exceeded our expectations. Stephanie made up the airbed for us in advance; both beds were comfortable. The shower is one of the best I’ve ever used while travelling. The house is in a nice, safe neighborhood in East Austin. You can walk to many places to eat and drink, including Rainey Street. Lady Bird Lake is also walkable. We didn’t spend a whole lot of time in the house (besides to sleep, get ready and relax before bed) because we had a lot of sights to see, but it was very comfortable (the living room area specifically). The kitchen was equipped with all we needed (though no microwave). I would definitely stay here again.
Note: at the time we stayed, mid-May 2016, both Uber and Lyft had recently pulled out of Austin. We had a car, so getting around was not a problem for us, but I don’t know how easy or quick it would be to get a cab to this neighborhood.
