About this property
Charming guesthouse with full kitchen, private entrance & fenced patio
This light-filled, well-appointed guest house has all the luxuries and amenities of a boutique hotel with all the charm and convenience of a peaceful and relaxing home. Home-like comforts include a full-size washer/dryer and a well-equipped kitchen, all set perfectly within the space to give you the best possible experience. But with so many great restaurants half a block away, you might not even need the kitchen. The private, fenced outdoor patio with a table and chairs is perfect for enjoying your morning coffee or a cool drink in the evening. Complimentary coffee and tea are provided. Guests will also receive a special welcome treat!
This neighborhood may be close to many fun attractions, but Hyde Park remains the kind of neighborhood where people still sit on their front porches in the evenings. The community boasts an extensive collection of historic bungalows and stately mansions and is home to East Dillon High School from Friday Night Lights - the Baker Center, just under a mile from the guest house. Hyde Park's central location is within seven miles of downtown/6th Street, UT, the Texas State Capitol, the South Congress district, Lady Bird Lake, the SXSW center, and much more. Peter Pan Mini-Golf is a local attraction that's been running since 1948 - it's just under seven miles away!
THINGS TO KNOW This home is the guest house and located in the rear of the property. Access to it is in the alley. The provided shampoo/conditioner/body wash is cruelty-free.

Nice stay for two
The studio-style apartment was cute and had nice amenities including a washer/dryer, nice toiletries, bath robes, comfy bed, etc.. The neighborhood also felt safe and there are restaurants, a bakery and a good cheese shop just down the street.

Sister’s Graduation Trip
Thank you for providing us with a nice and comfortable space to return to after our daily activities! We loved the space and neighborhood. I booked this home a couple of days before our planned trip and everything turned out to be amazing! The area was very nice and comfortable and within close range to all the places we wanted to visit. Thank you!!!
Cozy and charming describe this place perfectly. Just enough space for one or two. Loved the decor. The bathroom was up to date , as was the kitchen. The bed was soft but surprisingly comfortable. Don’t plan on watching tv or relaxing on the sofa…neither of these are recommended. You can’t beat the location and it was very quiet!

Carriage House
Location was where I expected, studio was clean, bed was comfortable. I was disappointed there was no coffee for the first morning to get me started. The couch/futon was extremely uncomfortable. The rose bush by the entry gate needs to be trimmed. The thorns on it scratched me trying to get in the gate.

Disappointed
The place was just ok. Location was fine, but didn’t realize the front door was located in the alleyway. No outside space available. No TV service but you can log into any of the services you currently subscribe to. The quality of the bed wasn’t the greatest. Overall the place was clean and located close to an area with a few restaurants and a small grocery store.

Not Bad - Needs Some TLC
Once we found it - not easy because of trash can blocking gate - entry was straightforward. Parking and alley access were not an issue, but the alley itself was a little sketchy. Entrance needs some landscaping upkeep. Apartmnet was as shown in pictures. Nice kitchenette and appliances. Bathroom was very nice. AC worked well. Couch was a little large for the space and quite uncomfortable. The mattress on the bed is in serious need of replacement. The floor also needs some maintenance as it felt like the planks were about to come apart with every step. Overall just OK for us. Would expect a little more at this price point.

Beautiful little spot in the heart of it all!
A cute, quiet, clean room. Was exactly as it was represented. The only thing we had an issue with was getting into the app with two-part authentication. It would text a code to get in to the app but when you go to grab the code it starts over from the beginning and you need a new code each time. Once I messaged the customer service they sent me the code to get in the door immediately so I could bypass the app.
The one hang up did not harm the stay in any way. We had no issue getting in and out after that.
Overall, it was a great stay and I will stay here again if it is still available during my next trip to Austin!
Very sweet little studio. It feels larger than you expect inside. Full kitchen, beautiful bathroom, fancy washer/dryer, and the bed is so so comfy. The best part of the place is the walkability. This is unusual in Texas in general. We got our groceries in a 2 minute walk. Quacks bakery is also 2 minutes. There are at least 6 restaurants a very short walk as well. Highly recommend this place.
