About this property

Private, 1 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.

I have stayed at The Sweet on numerous visits and have found it to be consistently well-appointed, carefully maintained and excruciatingly clean. The location is within easy walking distance of the hike-bike trail around Lady Bird Lake, Zilker Park, Barton Springs Pool and even a neighborhood grocery store. I fully expect to stay there again next time I have occasion to be in Austin. Highly recommended!

We really enjoyed our stay here. The space itself is clean, but nothing flashy. Your location is perfect to access Barton Springs, the greenbelt, and the rest of Austin. It was easy to enjoy most of what Austin has to offer with experiencing as little traffic as possible. As an active family traveling we also really appreciated access to the washers and dryers on site. The hosts communication was great too. We definitely would consider staying again.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The hosts were very helpful and our place was comfortable. This area is near the great Zilker Park & Botanical Gardens as well as Barton Springs Pool. The Double Decker Bus tour of the city is very good.We walked on the trail next to Barton Creek and Lady Bird Lake. One has easy access to shopping, restaurants and sights in Austin. We would return without hesitation!

I live in Austin and was having remodeling done on my home. I wanted something basic, clean and convenient. The stay at the sweet, provided amenities I did not expect- a well stocked kitchen and bathroom. Clean, well appointed and great communication. The two items to be aware is parking is very tight in a high volume area. Another tenant actually let his door go and put a large dent in my new car. He was kind and came and told me while providing his insurance. But still-The other item is if you want a well lit stay, this would not be the unit for you. I say that, yet the paint colors and decor is uplifting and makes you feel comfortable, especially for the price.

Hi Sherry, We are glad that you loved your stay overall and our amenities at The Sweet! It's a shame that one of our other guests put a ding in your car. I'm glad he contacted you about it, but still a big hassle. As far as the light in The Sweet, we are built into a hill, so we don't get as much light in there, being on the 1st level, as we do on the 2nd and 3rd level of the building. Next time, I'd recommend staying in the ATX House or the Heart House for better light. Our best, Cynthia and Peach Zilker Properties
