About this property
Cozy East Austin Loft With Downtown Views and Low Key Vibes
Welcome to our thoughtfully curated 240 sqft studio loft — a compact yet comfortable retreat tucked in the heart of East Austin. Ideal for two guests, this well-designed space offers smart functionality, modern amenities, and walkable access to everything Austin is known for — from SXSW and ACL to award-winning restaurants, nightlife, and creative energy.
Located just 15 feet behind the main house (each with its own private entrance), the loft sits on a secure, fenced-in property. Please note: you’ll need to walk up one flight of outdoor stairs to access the unit, and once inside, the lofted sleeping area is accessed by a fold-away B-Compact staircase. If you're not comfortable with stairs, this may not be the best fit. While the front house may also have guests during your stay, quiet hours from 9PM to 9AM are enforced to help ensure a peaceful experience.
Bed Configuration We have three twin memory foam beds and recommend the space most for 2 guests, though it can comfortably sleep up to 3:
- Daybed (sleeps 1) - Trundle (rolls out from under the daybed) - Twin bed in loft (accessible via fold-away B-Compact staircase)
The sleeping loft is accessed via a sleek, space-saving B-Compact staircase, which folds away when not in use. Clear instructions are posted at both ends to make the process simple and safe.
The kitchenette includes quartz countertops, a portable induction cooktop, microwave, and mini-fridge — perfect for light cooking. Coffee lovers will appreciate the Fellow Aiden automated pour-over machine, which delivers barista-quality results at the push of a button.
A 50" 4K Roku TV offers Netflix, Hulu, Disney+, and ESPN, and 8-gig symmetrical fiber internet ensures blazing-fast Wi-Fi for work or streaming. The space-saving B-Compact staircase folds away when not in use, and clear instructions are posted at both ends for safe, simple use.
The bathroom is stocked with Dove shampoo, conditioner, body wash, makeup-removal towels, a hairdryer, and either a steamer or iron for your convenience. We’ve also included a few extras like cards, games, and a QR code linking to our local guide — packed with recommendations for food, drinks, shops, and experiences you won’t find in tourist handbooks.
In the spirit of transparency: the loft is next door to a working metal scrapyard. They operate only during standard business hours (roughly 8 AM to 5 PM, Monday through Friday), so while there may be some occasional daytime noise, it tends to be minimal. We also provide sound machines, earplugs, and eye masks for light sleepers just in case.
You’ll be staying with a small, local team — no big property management company here. That means quick, direct communication, flexibility when possible, and personalized recommendations from people who know Austin inside and out.
Need more room? Ask us about the main house or the adjacent loft — together, we can host groups of up to 38 guests across multiple units.
No smoking or parties allowed. If we receive a noise complaint, you’ll get one warning before a fee is issued.

We were made very welcome throughout our stay, with helpful advice on the accommodation and surrounding area. The location is convenient to downtown, local bars and cafes and a cycle path.
We very much enjoyed our stay!
Very impressive small nice place. Super close to downtown Austin. My two sons and I stayed 2 nights. Great for a family of 2 or 3. Next to other nice similar houses and a metal scrapyard. We weren’t sure at first but it was great. Would absolutely stay there again.
We absolutely loved this place. It's a perfect balance of indoor and outdoor space, smartly appointed and location is just about perfect. Bring or rent a bike and you can go almost anywhere in the city from this spot! We loved it. It's cozy and fun.
First experience with VRBO, would definitely recommend this location.
Pros

-Responsive hosts and very accommodating

Cons
-Smaller then expected
-Ladder to get upper level
My wife and I stayed for a weekend in Austin and this place was perfect! Walkable coffee shops, bars, great food, and anything else downtown is a walk/scooter away. Great time in a great city! Thanks!
This was the perfect-sized space with all the amenities needed. It was close enough to the convention center (short 10 minute walk), as well as the east side of the freeway I had not explored that had many more nice restaurants and bars than the busy west wide of sixth street. I was pleased with this an alternative to the expensive hotels closer to the convention center.
Stayed here two nights for work. Easy access to downtown via walking, bike, or scooter. Place was nice shower was great. Owners very communicative. Would for sure stay here again.
The place was cute and cozy, very intimate and location was extremely convenient. We stayed during new years and we had a great view! we were able to see all the fireworks and downtown from the house.
We had a great time at ACL. The house was very nice and clean. There are lots of signs and QR codes to explain the locks and other various things. The location is super convenient. We would definitely stay again.
My friend and I decided on a last minute trip to Austin over the Thanksgiving weekend. The location was very convenient to downtown Austin, it was clean and comfortable. The property manager was very responsive and accommodating. I would definitely recommend this place for a low hassle, simple, comfortable stay.
Despite its small size, this place had everything we needed. I appreciated the makeup remover and microfiber pads supplied and the code access made for easy check in/travel without carrying a key.
Me and my partner stayed in this location and had a lovely stay. The place was the perfect size for us and with the loft we could've comfortable had three people stay here. The place was clean with amazing water pressure. There was a brilliant view of the Austin downtown sky line, and our stay was very enjoyable. The place was fully stocked with anything you would need; a water filter, toiletries, microwave, refrigerator, games, a steamer, and an iron. The place was very nice and comfortable and I would recommend!
My friend and I booked this place for a little weekend getaway and it was AMAZING!!! Location was perfect and the owners really though of all the little details to make your stay hassle free! I would give this property 10 stars if I could!!! Is it a small place? Yes, but for you and one or 2 other people it is perfect, cute, and cozy!
The apartment was perfect for one guest. Some thought did go into walking around at night as the location between a very well-lit area and a very run down area, but this didn't keep me from walking around to enjoy the Austin. The owners were incredibly responsive to questions and very accomodating.
Edwin and the team were prompt with their responses to any of my inquiries/concerns. This tiny style loft was in great proximity to many of Austin's points of interest and the little details that were provided were excellent. Access to this loft was behind the main house and up a flight of stairs, that is located above within a separate building. I would definitely book again at this location if I was in town for the weekend.
Very close to downtown, only 1/2 mile from the convention center which is just on the other side of the highway. Target and Whole foods is about 2 blocks away. The place was very clean and I felt safe and secure while in the property. Communication with Mindy and Edwin were great, they were helpful and quick with responses.
Nice, modern, well designed loft. It is tiny, so not a lot of room for just chilling with friends. Everything was there that was needed. The host was responsive. It was only a short walk to great music and food.. Neighborhood is a little sketchy feeling with a scrap yard next door. But I never felt unsafe. Off street parking available which was super. I would stay here again.
