Was very comfy, but looked very of putting at first. It's an old nursing home so it was weird. Beeping from the hall all night. Bed was super comfy.

The price was great--very cheap. The bed linens were clean, which was great. The shower, however, had a very dirty floor. Glad I bought my own spray cleaner. Otherwise, the bathroom was fine, and everything worked, including the AC. The motel is a converted nursing home--and it looks and feels like it. Pretty creepy at night. But fine during the day when the sun is shining. If you need a place to stay on a budget, fairly close to downtown Austin, this is a decent choice. There's even a Target store half a mile away.

Honesty its what you expect for what you paid for. The room was clean. It had all the essentials. A bed and a shower. However coming home at night we noticed a lack of hot water. And thats the only issue we had. The rooms were spacious and the beds were basic overall an affordable staying experience in Austin
