About this property

The Sweet: King bed, Patio; .33 mi to Zilker Park/Barton Springs, @2 mi to DT!

You know it’s a good omen for a vacation rental when our first renter was only supposed to stay in the Sweet for two nights...and ended up staying a month!

The Sweet is a one-bedroom condo in the same building as the Treehouse, The Retro, ATX House, Heart House and Studio, however it is the most private unit in the building. The front patio sits opposite and down a flight of stairs below Trailside Drive. It's very quiet!

The bedroom features a Tempurpedic king bed, a large closet and a large full length standing mirror. There is a second large closet in the bathroom. The kitchen is fully furnished with everything you need to cook a meal or just have a fresh cup of coffee with our drip pot, coffee beans and grinder. And we have an instant Pot, popcorn popper, waffle iron, and hand mixer upon request.

All of our units have irons and ironing boards, hair dryers, shampoo, conditioner, body wash, lotion, face wipes, bar soap as well as sheets and towels, including beach towels to take to Barton Springs Pool!

You just won’t find a better value for this location and size of the unit. The Sweet most certainly is sweet.

Great Location

The Sweet was very cute & very clean. It had pretty much everything we needed, even coffee beans & a grinder. The location was perfect for access to all the places we needed to go. The only 2 downsides are the difficulty with parking a large SUV & lack of a grassy area for our dog. The homeowners were very accommodating & very quick to respond to our inquiries.

Short Walk to Barton Springs

Property was cozy, clean, and in a great location! Walk to Barton Springs/ Zilker park. 8$ Lyft ride to downtown. The door code was not the last four digits of my cellphone number but the property manager responded within 30 mins (on a Saturday afternoon). She also allowed us to check in an hour early without any issues. Would highly recommend!

Funky Austin-vibe condo

Excellent stay in every way, starting with the name of The Sweet- gotta love it. The owners were 100% responsive, including to the arrival unlock moment when the inept guest (moi) couldn't figure out the keypad. What property owner answers their phonr on the first ring. She even voluntarily told us the unit was ready 1 hour early! Comfy cozy bed (delicious vacation sleep), plenty of dishes, pots, pans to cook an elaborate meal one night, and board games galore. We porch sat most morning because of the quiet, privacy, and view of just trees. Lovely in every way. lick.

Delorean P., Fort Worth, Texas

Cozy condo in the middle of the coolest area

We stayed here to be close to the Umlauf Sculpture Museum as our cousin was getting married there. The location is awesome and was just half a mile from the venue. Across the way is a big park and the river which was cool. If you keep going a little further there are a lot of cool restaurants and shops to go to. The actual condo was clean, everything was working and they had a cute patio set up on the front porch. The bed was really comfortable and we slept well. The upstairs neighbors were a bit loud but that is to be expected with a multi-unit. Parking was scary with the steep hill but we made it! Overall, I am happy we booked here and would book again if and when we return to Austin.

Great Location near Zilker Park

Very cute and comfortable 1 bedroom unit in the heart of the Zilker neighborhood of Austin. Pictures were very accurate, unit was very clean, and in good working order. Nice little kitchen was perfect for our morning coffee, and reheating our left-over BBQ. On-site laundry room came in handy. Great neighborhood to walk around and get your steps in too. We would definitely consider this location again for our next Austin stay.

Just Right- Perfect for 1 or 2

Clean, well organized space with everything you need for a stay. Kitchen had everything you might need to cook with. Bed was comfortable. Bathroom had plenty of towels. Internet was fast. Easy walk to anything in Zilker Park, Barton Springs or South Larmar. Space was quiet at night and the AC worked like a champ. Would stay here again, if its available the next time I'm in town.

Great location

This property is located in a very nice and quiet neighborhood very close to downtown Austin. We had one free parking spot available to us and there was more free parking on the street. There is a staircase to get down to the entrance so if you have trouble going up and down steep stairs keep this in mind. The unit was very clean and had every essential item that you could possibly need available. The locally fresh roasted coffee was a huge perk. The king size bed was very comfortable and the bedsheets were clean and soft. The bedroom was nice and dark at night. AC worked great. Communication with the host was excellent. I am detail oriented so I really appreciated the details provided for our stay. We took an Uber on most of our trips and never had to wait longer than 5 minutes for a ride. I would absolutely stay here again. The unit was so nice and clean and located to many amazing restaurants. We enjoyed Italian fare at Juliet’s and the famous Terry Blacks is less than 10 minutes away. I highly recommend this unit to anyone who wants a nice place close to downtown Austin.
