This is a fantastic location if you are going to a meeting at the Convention Center or one of the downtown hotels. It’s more economical to stay with several colleagues rather than having separate hotel rooms, and the onsite parking if you have a car will save you quite a bit of money! Great communication from the host via emails prior to our arrival, with very helpful hints / tips including local grocery and liquor stores. Less than 2 minute walk to convention center, 5 minute walk to 6th, less than 10 minute walk to Congress Bridge to see the bats, and 20 minutes to the flagship Whole Foods. It is a first floor unit so noise from the street is easily heard - one of the bedrooms had a sound machine which made a big difference! There were 3 of us and we had plenty of space, would have been a little tight if we had 8 in terms of seating in the main living space but there is plenty to do in Austin and you are unlikely to be hanging out much at the apartment. Appreciated the provided toiletries which made air travel easier to not have to worry about bringing shampoo / soap. Easy to use the electronic lock and the check out was super easy - didn’t have to strip the beds or anything else. Air conditioning worked well, pool is in the building next door and is small but clean. Extremely clean, could use more lighting as opening the shades wasn’t a great option given being on the street level, beds were comfortable. Highly recommend this if you are looking to stay in Downtown Austin.
