My husband and I stayed in Raquel & Jacob's loft during a quick 5-night trip to Austin for ACL, and we found it to be the perfect place to explore downtown. It's just off the beaten path so you don't have to deal with the nightlife all night, yet it's walkable to 6th Street, Rainey, and even South Congress if you're feeling ambitious like us. We really appreciated Raquel & Jacob's suggestions for things to do and places to eat in the area – especially Lambert's and Easy Tiger (we went twice during our stay!). The apartment was clean and comfortable, and our hosts were very attentive and available. We highly recommend staying here if you have the opportunity!
