My husband and I stayed here over New Years for about 4 days and we had a great experience.
The most redeeming quality of the stay is being right next to Cenote. The food here is delicious, it has great coffee, and a happy hour we took advantage of a few times.
The apartment was clean and spacious enough so we didn't feel like we were on top of each other. There's a small kitchen so that helped when we bought $80 worth of BBQ that we couldn't finish and had it for several days afterwards. Ha.
We were within walking distance to downtown, about 15 minutes or so. The first leg of the walk is not so pedestrian friendly because of the main highway that we had to walk through, but it's not something we got discouraged by. The area can be slightly sketchy because of the homeless situation across the street/around the area, but we live in a city so it wasn't anything too unfamiliar.
We were also able to park the rental car in tenant parking so that alleviated us having to find on street parking which can get crowded.
Overall, we had a great experience and would recommend Cody's air bnb to anyone would wants to experience Austin! I loved the city. There was endless amounts of good food, live music, and art; 3 things I always like to be surrounded by.
Thanks again Cody! It was a great New Years experience.
