The hotel is very clean, we'll kept and staff extremely accommodating & friendly. The area feels safe and we walked around every night without any issues. Just a few blocks away to sixth start is a great nightlife! Lots of bars and music. A short Uber or Lyft ride near the Austin convention Center is more upscale shopping and dining. Had a great time on this trip!

Nice affordable hotel for a quick stay. Friendly staff and bus stops within 5mins walk. However, very concerned about the homeless situation around this block, very concerned.

Clean property. Well maintained interior & exterior. Have experienced much friendlier staff during previous stays. Surrounding areas are a bit of an eyesore, but I’m confident that will change soon. Proximity to the UT campus is a definite plus.

The hotel itself was very clean, very friendly staff with excellent service. The beds were comfortable and the breakfast was nice. But i could not get to sleep before midnight each night because of the noise. I brought my own white noise machine, and not even that AND the television on helped.
