Great location

Love the staff and the location within walking distance to some great bars, restaraunts and amenities. Whole foods a few blocks away is a frequented spot for me. I'm in one of a handful of units facing downtown and the view is great. I have only been here for a few months but it already feels like home

Great Location | Loud

I generally have few complaints with 5th Street Commons. However, I will say that the complex is located in a noisy area. I got over hat pretty quickly, considering its within walking distance of Town Lake, the place is nice and management is awesome!

About Old West Austin

Old West Austin is a historic neighborhood, centrally-located north of Lady Bird Lake and west of Downtown. The neighborhood’s historic district was founded in the mid-1800s, shortly after the city of Austin was established. Today, the neighborhood is a quiet one with a relaxed attitude. Even though...

It's nice to be able to walk to Whole Foods and Trader Joes for groceries. There are a lot of salons and boutique type stores in walking distance. The one downside is that there is no drug store (CVS or Walgreens) in walking distance.
Reviewed by Jessica F living at AMLI 300
Close to Whole Foods, Trader Joes, West 6th street bars, the townlake YMCA and the trail at Lady Bird Lake! I also work downtown so its a perfect location, and there is plentiful guest parking on the roof!

We are in walking distance to a Whole Foods and Trader Joe's. You can also walk to West 6th street bars. There are a lot of running trails nearby at Zilker Park and along the river.

Cool area, nice shops and restaurants, quick walk to anything downtown, served by several bus lines.

Great access to campus metro and <10 minute walk to bars and restaurants on West 6th.

I could not say better things about Clarksville. It's a super cute neighborhood that's just outside of downtown, making the commute light but you don't have to deal with the same amount of noise or traffic. It's a short walk to the lake and running trail. Cute restaurants and a couple bars.

Super convenient commute but not as charming as East Austin neighborhood, for instance.
