Great space and bed. Good lighting. Cable was kinda bad reception on HBO. All the other channels were great. Had a little coffee machine and fridge in the room which was great for leftovers and morning brew. Very good Mexican restaurant right there.

This place is awful. It looks nothing like the pictures and has a taqueria attached to it with bars on the windows. They refused to refund us When we tried to cancel and get a refund because we felt unsafe and the hotel pulling false advertising. There management and employees are rude. They had hookers in the parking lot. Do not stay here.

They said the rooms were newly renovated. They also said it was nonsmoking but the room reeked of smoke. There were sketchy people walking all around the property. Stains on the bedding. We didn’t even stay. I felt very unsafe. We left and stayed at a different hotel.

If I could give it a zero I would. It was bugs all over. Prostitution and drug dealing as well. We couldn’t get our money back so we had to stay. I’m so glad to finally be away from that hotel because they definitely put the HOE in Hotel.

Nothing like the pictures. It was clean however, the shower didn’t work (faucet coming off the wall), the tiles in the bathroom were stapled on the walls, the door looked like it had been broken down a few times. Friends of mine said they had bugs in their room, but I didn’t see them. Definitely not a place you’d hang around if you had down time.

Do not bother…the pillows, sheets and towels were all yellow and disgusting. The pics online make it appear somewhat cute and renovated but don’t be fooled. We asked if we could cancel and get a refund on the last day and they said no so we ended up paying for 2 hotels in Austin for 3 nights because I just couldn’t stay there. And this is the first negative review I’ve ever left but if I can help someone else avoid this hellhole then good.

No one was at the front desk upon my arrival. I waited 15 minutes for someone to open the door. The renovated room was unprofessionally done with holes on the wall and an unfinished bathroom. The bed squeaked like it belonged to the 1970s. And I felt very unsafe as if I was going to become missing. Just terrible! Don't let the pictures fool you.

The iron didn’t work so I had to call down for one. The plug in the bathroom did not work. The hairdryer did not work. There was a stench of smoke in multiple rooms because we had to go from room to room until one was found to be acceptable. The parking lot is trashy and nasty. The grounds as a whole are terrible. The lobby is ugly. Huge mistake to stay there. Never again.

I found lots of baby roaches in the bathroom. Our sink did not drain properly causing water to flood in seconds of the water running. The bathtub floor had a lot of cracks and the shower curtain rod was halfway broken off so the curtain wouldn’t stay closed, causing water to spil onto floor. The sheets and blankets had plenty of little burn marks and gashes on them. The walls had plenty of shoddily patched up spots where someone had obviously done some sort of damage. Very run down place, just barely worth the low price we paid. If we had known the conditions of the room we would’ve probably stayed elsewhere.
