Relaxing treetop hideaway in Historic downtown Austin!!! Explore the Capitol City from this central, highly-walkable, newly-renovated condo. Walk to Zilker, UT campus, W 6th nightlife, world-class restaurants, Texas State Capitol, museums, and more!
I have also created a comprehensive house manual that describes how to get keys, parking, wifi, etc... You will gain access to the manual, in Airbnb, upon booking confirmation. Be sure to check it out, to make your stay as smooth as possible.
The space
Whether you're looking for a festival, a quick weekend getaway or in town for a conference or a Congressional session, this is the perfect spot to lay your head. If you're looking for a party pad, this unit is not for you :(
That said, a brand new Tuft and Needle mattress, along with CuddlePedic pillows (local Texas pillow company) will allow you to achieve that Stage 4 deep-sleep cycle!
When you book with us, please refer to the arrival guide in your trip itinerary (also in the confirmation email). It will include details on check-in/out procedures, wifi passwords, and other super-important stuff. I created it to answer 99% of your questions, in the event I am unable to respond immediately. That said, please reach out to me with any unaddressed questions.
At 650 sq ft, this peaceful 1/1 condo sleeps 2. There is 1 Queen bed in bedroom. Also note, this is a 3rd floor unit without an elevator. That means 2 flights of stairs. The condo comes equipped with a full kitchen, washer/dryer, and 2 amazing, private, treetop balconies to escape above the buzz of the surrounding city. Basically, it's badass and perfectly situated in downtown Austin.

Other things to note
The building is super-old, so noise carries easily through the floor of this top-floor condo to the units below. Please, please, please be respectful of our neighbors!
The railings on the balcony and in the stairwell are spaced more widely than recent residential code now calls for. Please keep small children away from railings, as they could fall through.
