Everything you need in a VRBO

This place had everything we were looking for in a VRBO. The location is great. The apartment is in a quiet neighborhood and just a 10-15 minute walk to S Congress and everything that area has to offer. The apartment was very clean and very comfortable for 2 people. The hosts were very accommodating, allowing us to check in early and check out late without issue. We already told them that we're going to stay here again the next time we come to Austin. Definitely would recommend.

A great rental with a SOCO vibe!

Discovered the meaning of SOCO (South Congress) staying in this terrific cozy rental. Met all our needs, including walking up and down steps to this garage apt. entrance. Great for exercise! The owners were super, John taking time to greet us on the first day from his semi-detached house front lawn.Located in a lovely, quiet historic neighborhood, a very short drive to bustling S. Congress. All our drives in the city were 15-20 min… to the museums, Capital bldg, restaurants. Not caught in any traffic gridlock from this location. Highly recommend unless you have difficult climbing a climbing a flight of stairs.

Can’t wait to stay there again!!!

My wife and I thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the apartment. The location is excellent (approximately a 1/2 mile to South Congress) and the neighborhood is great for those that enjoy walking. The communication with the property manager was excellent! The written instructions within the apartment were very clear and concise. Overall, our experience was great! We’re looking forward to a return visit!
