☆☆ LOCATION, LOCATION, LOCATION! ☆☆
Rainy Street is a 5 minute walk, and features about 20 bars and restaurants. My favorites are Lustre Pearl (huge backyard with lots of bar games and rooftop bar), Icenhauers (Sunday funday, live music, home of the "manmosa", unbelievable-circus theme, has a slide that people love). Anthem was voted one of the best restaurants in the country- it's a must try! A 10 min walk in the other direction is Veracruz Taco's- hands down one of the best taco places in the world! There is so much to fun to be had in Austin, and we are located in one of the best areas to experience all of it first hand!

☆☆ THINGS TO DO NEARBY ☆☆
Head to Austin's Congress Bridge before sunset on any given summer evening and you'll likely see crowds of people filling the sidewalks. Why? They're waiting to see the bridge's 1.5 million protected bats that take flight every day at dusk. 

Cool Off at a Swimming Hole! You probably know Texas summers can be hot, but did you know it has plenty of natural swimming holes to cool off in, too? Barton Springs Pool is Austin's most famous swimming area, and nearby Campbell's Hole is an equally refreshing and lively spot to spend a sweltering afternoon. Just outside the city, the Hamilton Pool Preserve is more than worthy of a day trip: This moss-draped natural crater is a must-see.

Our neighborhood is made up of a lot of Air B&b's. Party atmosphere. Walk score 89. The 808 is practically in downtown, so you'll see homeless camp site one block away.. Most of all the houses on Spence were built in the early 1930's. Spence St is a short 2 block street. You may see some people looking for a space to park to walk to Rainey st or downtown, but you'll have your own driveway here. Park up to 3 cars in front.
fun location

There is a short bus route will take you to downtown without switching buses. Use Lyft/Uber if you can, it's a short ride, typically costs around $5-$10 . Walking is very popular in this area, since we're near ALL the action.we're approximately 6 minute walk to Rainey Street. Approximately 10min walk to downtown and approximately 7 min walk to the Convention Center.

The 808 is next to the highway so naturally you will hear the hustle and bustle of not just the cars but all downtown lively Austin has to offer.
