Ames place was absolutely perfect for our week stay. The apartment was a jewel of a place - impeccably clean, spacious and equipped with everything you’ll need for a comfortable stay. We had room to put all our stuff, cook, work and relax. There is plenty of parking right in front of the apartment. I enjoyed walking the neighborhood and taking in its beauty. It’s also very close to Lady Bird Lake if you want to walk around there. I found it was also extremely convenient to downtown and getting north and south of town was super easy with MoPac expressway so close. There are some of the best places to eat in Austin that are an easy walk - 68 Degrees, Pool Burger, Fabi & Rossi and Tumble 22 (try the frozen blood orange margarita).
I live in Westlake Hills just west of this neighborhood, so I know Austin very well and can tell you this is the best area to stay if you want to be super close to everything, but want to relax into a quiet well-established neighborhood at the same time.
It’s a great value and I hope to visit again soon.
