Room was spotless. Staff is amazing. I loved staying here. Throwback spot for those who remember Austin before the big tech money rolled into town.

This is an iconic place to stay.
Frederick, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

This is just the coolest hotel. Great little shop at reception if you run out of drinks or snacks in your room. The pool is from another time, in the best way. Shower pressure was unbelievable, and I'm so glad they kept the old motel look to the rooms, despite the decor. This is a gem.
Priscilla, 3-night trip

Love staying again but this time it was a bit off. Insane cleaning product smells overwhelmed. Shower drain backed up to floodstage :-(

Linda, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Love this retro motel and awesome courtyard bar. We stayed in a deluxe king room and my only complaint is that there was no hook by the shower for your towel when you need it post shower and there is no microwave for reheating leftovers from the many great restaurants around the area.
