Good to know
Welcome to our thoughtfully curated 220 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.
Other Details to Note
While located on the same premises as the main house, the loft ensures complete privacy and independence for our guests. Your stay at the loft guarantees a separate and secluded experience from the main home, allowing you to enjoy your own serene space, but please note that outdoor lounge area is shared. You'll enjoy the convenience of your own private entrance to the loft, allowing you to come and go freely, with no interference from the main home's guests. Due to this space being on the same block of a metal scrapyard, there is a chance of noise throughout the week. We do our best with the nearby houses to enforce noise violations after hours, but there is nothing that we can do about the early morning noise from the metal scrapyard. This should be considered if you are a light sleeper, but please keep in mind we provide sound machines, sleeping masks, and ear-plugs. The scrapyard operates within regular weekday working hours. While East Austin is a vibrant and diverse neighborhood, it's important to note that, like many urban areas, there is a visible homeless population. However, it's essential to emphasize that these individuals have never posed a threat to our guests. The neighborhood remains safe and our property prioritizes security measures like locks and security cameras to ensure a comfortable and secure stay. We encourage respect and understanding towards all members of the community, and our guests' safety and well-being are our utmost priority. Additionally, 24/7 free street or 1 spot in the driveway through our back alley behind the loft is available. Tesla charging available!
