Easy booking. Clean and quiet. Pricey, yet they get away with it for the area

The owners were very nice and accomodating. Quiet place, no crackheads beating on your door at 3am like some S.Austin motels i tried first.

The exterior could use updated paint, but the room was absolutely excellent, both in how it was laid out, the cleanliness, and care taken by staff. Everything was very positive during our stay.

Just fine for a low price hotel. The room was clean, the bed was comfortable, and it was quiet. I’ve stayed here before and I’ll stay here again.

The staff were very nice to me and my wife. We did have to put our dog in overnight boarding elsewhere, but I understand the hotel's policy on no pets. Otherwise, very nice accommodations at a very reasonable price.

My second stay at this motel. I had a nice room with a king bed, ceiling fan, and working smoke detector. There is traffic noise from the adjacent highway but I use a white noise generator so no problem. I slept well. The fridge and some furnishings have seen better times but the price could not be beat. I felt safe. The desk clerks were friendly. I would stay here again.

It was a nice clean room, though without carpet. The bed was comfortable, and the fridge and microwave worked just fine. There is no pool, or much in the way of other amenities, and access to/from the hotel is restricted by being on a frontage road. Overall, it looks a bit rundown, but the room was pleasant and comfortable. Check in was easy, and the staff at the time friendly. The only real downside was the refrigerator was really loud when it turned on to cool. It made a loud pop, and then came on for several minutes increasing in volume as it went. But, this was made better by turning the A/C fan on full time. Overall, I'm not sure I'd recommend this place as it doesn't have a very "I'm really safe here" vibe, being in a not great part of Austin. However, if you're looking for an inexpensive place to stay, this isn't that bad a choice.

Great stay. Only complaint is that there were kids running around on the second floor for like 45 minutes one evening. Also there were a couple moments where it felt/sounded like someone was moving large furniture in the room next door, and it was very jarring for 15 minutes on and off.

The air conditioner worked well, but it was loud and cycled on often.
