Photos and Description of the Austin vacation condo rental
Condo, 3 Bedrooms, 2 Baths, (Sleeps 6-7)

Downtown Austin Hook 'Em Horns 3BR/2bath Condo!

What a great Texas city but downtown is the best part of the city and this 3 BR/2 BA condo is in the heart of downtown. Take a cab from the airport and don't even rent a car. You can walk to all the downtown arts, entertainment, restaurants, bars, live music venues and famous Lady Bird Lake (Town Lake) Hike & Bike Trail.

The world headquarters flagship store of Whole Foods is a long walk (10 min) or very short cab ride away. 'SoCo' = South Congress Avenue shopping and restaurants are a 15 min walk away by just crossing Town Lake from downtown. This is an amazing location and the living space is great too. Living room and kitchen have granite counter breakfast island open to the living area which features leather chair, sofa and pub table w/ 4 barstools.

Two bedrooms on the main level each feature a queen sized bed and 2 bathrooms. A small loft is up a spiral staircase and offers a small sitting area w/ 2 chairs overlooking the city lights/buildings and a 3rd bedroom in the loft which has 2 twin beds. Covered and gated parking comes with the unit.

**Please note this unit is on the 3rd floor and no elevator available so do not lease if you cannot bring bags up 3 floors or stairs are a problem.**

Please - No Smokers and WILD PARTIES - DO NOT BOOK IF YOU CANNOT ADHERE TO NO LOUD PARTIES/NOISE AFTER 10PM.

No Pets

The neighbors are full time adult professionals/residents and the unit may not be leased for a party. It's a great home and home base for people wishing to visit Austin, live like a local and avoid being in the hotels. Walk across the street to one of the bars for time to be loud and crazy. Location is also across the street from Austin Convention Center so literally a 1-2 minute commute for those in Austin on business.

'I just wanted to say thanks once again for the opportunity to rent your unit in Downtown Austin. We had a great time, and the unit was super! I hope to have the chance to rent from you again when we return to Austin next time, and will definitely suggest others consider your unit when traveling to the area.'

Amy

'Just wanted to say thanks for arranging the rental. The unit was perfect for our family’s needs. While we were waiting for teammates to compete at the Convention Center, we could hang out at the condo and just cross the street when they were ready. Probably the best part of our stay was being able to go back and forth to the unit for lunch and snacks – we managed to avoid most of the unhealthy and expensive concessions-type food. Having a reserved parking spot in an enclosed area was also a plus. Would definitely stay there again if we come back to Austin for another tournament!

Thanks again,'

Roda

'As i mentioned to you today over the phone today after our check out, you should know just how pleased we were with the overall accommodations, location and cleanliness of your unit as a whole The place where one sleeps is important and this made our long business trip almost pleasurable Take Good care And Thanks again for letting us have the opportunity to stay in your nice unit' Phil W. 15 DEC 10 (this reference called after his stay to say he will talk on the phone or email to give a reference of the condo)

About The Owner

I am a downtown Austin resident.

The Owner purchased this condo in 2000
Why The Owner chose Austin

It's in the heart of downtown Austin walking distance to many great attractions including the Lady Bird Lake Hike and Bike Trail plus hundreds of restaurants, live music, arts and entertainment.

What makes this condo unique

It's a property where you can walk out the door and be downtown plus across the street from the convention center. 99% of the neighborhoods in Austin are not pedestrian friendly like larger cities but Downtown Austin is a genuine walking area.

Austin Condo near 6tht street scene

4 of 5
Submitted: May 7, 2013 Stayed: April 2013
Great location, short walk from all the action on 6th. Can't hear the main drag but still a noisy neighborhood. Ammenities are out of date and a bit short on upkeep & limited space in the living room, but not uncomfortable. Nothing in the complex except for the 2 parking spaces. Overall the perfect location for the price if all you want is a place to crash. The management company was very good.

Great location...

3 of 5
Submitted: April 23, 2013 Stayed: April 2013
This property is in an incredible, central Austin location which is perfect for a group/family unfamiliar with the city. The condo is beautifully appointed and has all the amenities one needs. We'd give this rental a "good" or even an "excellent" rating but for a few issues. The building was noisy, and the other guests or residents were rowdy. There was a lot of late-night noise/talking/gathering. That, coupled with noisy beds, made getting a good night's rest near impossible. We took 2 of the beds off of their frames and put them directly on the floor to reduce whatever noise was made with every movement in the bed. Also, the rental comes with two parking spaces, but every evening one of the available spots was taken - and of course it was the spot closest to our entrance. We hesitate to leave a "negative" review, because really, the condo is GREAT and the staff with whom we worked to rent the place was great! If the bed issues and the noise levels weren't there, we'd recommend this rental with glee. Overall, our excursion to Austin was fantastic, and much of that was attributable to this awesome location and charming condo. Thank you!

Austin in February

4 of 5
Submitted: March 26, 2013 Stayed: February 2013
Cute, cozy condo. Everything is adequate. Much better than staying in a hotel. Major problem though with key fobs. There were six women staying in the condo and there are two key fobs. One fob opens the parking area and the other opens the main outside door and the condo door. While we tried to utilize leaving the fob in the lock box - it is very complicated. When one person returns to the condo alone, retrieves the key fob, lets themself into the condo - there is no way to put the fob back while you are still inside the condo. The outer door does not remain open long enough to allow you to put the fob back in the lock box. Then when the next person comes there is no fob in the lock box. They have to call around to find out who is in the condo and ask them to come down and let them in. Very frustrating. The condo is on the third floor so its a lot of up and down to let one another in and out. This system might work well for a couple staying in the unit but not for several people going in a variety of directions during the day and evening. Other than this we had a nice stay. The outside can be noisy at night with cars, sirens, etc., but a cheap pair of ear plugs solves that problem.

Perfect for access to Convention Center!

5 of 5
Submitted: February 10, 2013 Stayed: February 2013
This was a wonderful place for myself and 5 other teachers to attend a conference at the convention center. Less than half a block away from the Convention Center, and with 3 bedrooms and two baths, we had plenty of room for all of us. The added bonus of an area for all of us to gather and talk about what we had done at the convention. The cost savings compared to several hotel rooms was wonderful, especially with two parking spaces included in a gated area. Within walking distance were many restaurants and other things to do. I highly recommend Cafe Crepe, Downtown Burger and Ropollo's Pizza! Would definitely stay again next year for the same conference!

Great location!

Submitted: January 16, 2013 Stayed: January 2013
The property was definitely clean and well-maintained! We were impressed! It had a nice, big refrigerator and a microwave - bowls, glasses, silverware..... Basically everything you would need. A couple things to keep in mind. The water heater is small - and after about a shower and a half, the water got cold. We had to stagger our showers - with 6 girls, this was kind of an inconvenience. Also, for some reason, there was construction going on at 6:45AM on Saturday morning! Bring ear plugs, just in case. Definitely within walking distance of LOTS of great bars, restaurants, and shops - although having the 2 parking spaces in a private lot that could only be accessed with a key fob was really nice.
