The property was overall great for the price! The staff were nice, as was the speakeasy/ bar directly attached. It was pretty clean (beds, bathroom) and maintenance issues were quickly addressed. The rooms did smell kind of bad/ musty/ humid, but just from the fact that there were 6 people in that space. I would definitely stay again!

The bathrooms were a little gross and leaky, but for the price I didn't really mind so much. It was my first time in a hostel, and it was a good experience. If i were to come back to Austin for the same event I attended, I would for sure come back.

Bedbugs were found on my bed and i had to wake up to put my clothes and bagpack into the dryer to prevent bedbugs from spreading to my home. The girl said she refunded my night stay but she didnt.

Comfortable, central, friendly-but hard to sleep!
The hostel is in a very central, great location close to 6th street. The check-in process was easy and they were able to hold my bags since i got in early. There is a kitchen area and shared bathroom with 2 women's toilets and i believe 3 showers. The room was standard fare 8-bed hostel but it was comfortable and i was able to take a midday nap before dinner. The biggest complaint: the hostel is above a bar/club, which might be great for hangining out-- but the music and vibrations were SO loud until 2am that i could not sleep. You could feel it in the room/bed. I had earplugs too so it was less about volume and more about not being able to get away from FEELING the music! Made for a tough time when i had to get up at 4am for my flight!
