This is a warm and inviting apartment in the best East Austin location. Surrounded by trendy bars and restaurants, and a short 5 minute walk to downtown. This apartment is right in the action!

*Please note before booking that this apartment is in a quirky semi-updated turn of the century building*. If you love a funky, bohemian, cleverly decorated and cozy space then this apartment is for you.

The entire apartment is all yours! You will have absolute privacy at all times, but I live a few blocks away in case you need me for anything.

You're right next door to a good coffee shop, and upstairs from a great little restaurant and bar with fabulous burgers and GREAT bloody marys (open 3p.m. to midnight). *Check out my guidebook for more info.

Wifi is included, so bring your laptop. Also, I have an ipod dock in the living room. There is an alarm clock for you to use as well. It also includes all the kitchen basics - coffee pot, french press, kettle, microwave, toaster, stove and oven. Linens are included and extras are also provided. Housekeeping is optional (for a fee).

The apartment has two bedrooms, one with a bold color palate and plush mattress. The other bedroom has a muted color palate and a firmer mattress.

The shelves are loaded with books and games in case you want to have a night in, and there's a cozy electric fireplace.

I've stocked the place with coffee and creamer and delicious granola as well as all the cooking basics. The most awesome Whole Foods in the nation is located on W. 6th St. a nice stroll through downtown away.

I prefer a two night minimum stay, but if you only want to stay for one night - message me and we can work something out.

We can also arrange scooter rentals for up to four people or local brewery tours for up to eight.

Bicycle rentals are available from Longhorn Bikes located on E. Cesar Chavez St.
There is a strict four person maximum policy. Check in/out times are flexible. Please message me with arrival and departure times after booking.

Feel free to ask me about great local attractions, bars and restaurants.I love sharing local insider tips about my city. You're going to have a fabulous time in Austin!

SXSW info: You're surrounded by the best that SXSW has to offer. Just two blocks from the Fader Fort and three blocks from downtown. Stay here and you won't have to deal with taxis or buses. Just walk out your front door and you're right in the action.

  • The selling point for this apartment really is the location - we were able to easily walk into downtown Austin, and there are some nice cafes in the area. Sputnik cafe, right below the apartment, was a great place to eat lunch. Finding the location and getting in was hassle-free. The decorations were nice, the beds very comfortable, and everything was fairly clean and a good size. Communication was good, the neighborhood guide was useful, and the effort has clearly been made to make the apartment welcoming.

  • Andi's apartment was fantastic. It has an excellent location on east 6th. The inside is super cute, clean, and well stocked with everything you need. I would absolutely stay here again!

  • Andi was great! Easy to get in touch with and very helpful. This was my first time using airbnb and I am now a fan! The apartment was in an ecclectic location that allowed for us to walk everywhere. Funky place that is decorated perfectly and kudos to Andi for the tea selection! You are seriously steps away from a great Argentinian cafe caled Buenor Aires Cafe...we had wine and dessert there every night! Also, if you head down 6th street towards downtown, within half a mile you run into Easy Tiger, bakery and beer garden. Really unique and delicious dining experience. I could go on and on but it was really fun exploring the East Side of Austin. We have been to Austin many times but found some new favorites places, not to mention food trucks! To recap; stay at Andi's place. Andi is a great host and you will be in for a treat once you arrive!

  • Wonderful! This little gem is so charming. Andi was a pleasure to work with. Nice location too-- we loved the Buenos Aires cafe down the street and also the Rio Rita. I will be moving to Austin in June and I cannot wait!

  • Great location! Andi's place is conveniently located on 6th street, walking distance from downtown and dozens of bars and restaurants. Thanks Andi!

  • Our stay at Andi's place was great! I stayed there with one other friend and the apartment was plenty spacious and in a great location. There are bus lines nearby, and it was such an easy walk home from the bars at 6th street. Also a bunch of great restaurants right in the area, and so many food trucks nearby. I'd definitely recommend it!

  • Great place to stay! Lots of places to go. The food trucks were amazing

  • This apartment is super adorable and in a really great location for travelers looking to explore downtown Austin. It is less than a 10 minute walk from downtown and right next to a bus stop! Also, the neighborhood has a lot of really wonderful bars and restaurants right outside your door. I would definitely recommend this apartment to someone looking to be right in the center of it all while in Austin. The only minor problem we ran into was a slight miscommunication about check-out time, so make sure you are clear on that.

    We stayed at Andi's place during SXSW this year and it was amazing. Austin has really become a zoo this time of year due to the ever growing popularity of all aspects of this conference and this year the hotels were booked out at least 6 months in advance. Andi's apartment was located on 6th Street but east of the highway, which was even better because they had amazing food trucks and it was only a 10 minute walk to the convention centre. The place itself was very cool, spacious enough for the 4 of us, very tidy, clean and Andi really went out of her way to make sure we had the things we needed like toilet paper and guides on the local area. Would definitely stay here again, thanks Andi

  • We absolutely loved our stay at Andi's cute, homey apartment and I'd definitely stay again. The only problem was that we were too busy with our conference to be able to enjoy the neighborhood - clearly an error on our part!! The apartment is cute and cozy and functional - and the location is great, totally out of the way but also just a few blocks up. If you stay, you're right around the corner from some slamming breakfast biscuits at Progress coffee.
