Guest Reviews & Ratings

What Guests Are Saying?

Marilyn

United States, February 2024

6.8/10

The hotel room was spacious and comfortable; however, it had cigarettes on the walkway and smelled terrible. The bed was not comfortable and squeaked with every move. Additionally, the room was missing a hairdryer, the parking lot was too small, and the shower curtain was broken, causing water to splash out. Some updates are needed in certain areas.

6.0/10

My stay at the hotel had its ups and downs. The room cleaning left much to be desired with uncleaned areas and bugs, but the hotel location was convenient for my needs. The hotel staff was accommodating and understanding, which was a plus. However, the dining options were lacking, and the hotel facilities were just average.

United States, June 2023

6.0/10

When we arrived, the hotel had a recent cannabis odor which was quite unpleasant, and the room was dirty despite being a non-smoking room. However, they are actively transitioning to newer fixtures and floors, which is a positive sign for improvements.

Rooms

5.0

The room smelled like smoke even though it was supposed to be non-smoking, and it was dirty when we checked in.

Service

7.0

At first, the receptionist came off as rude, making me feel like I was inconveniencing her, even though we were the only ones there. However, another staff member was super friendly and very accommodating.

Location

6.0

The motel is right off the highway in Austin, TX, providing easy access, but the high-crime area and noise level may not be ideal. However, for the price we paid, being close to my event made it a steal.

Dining

5.0

The dining was disappointing with minimal offerings, just a granola bar, a cup of fruit, and peanut butter crackers. The overall value for the price was not worth it.

Facilities

6.0

The motel lacked basic amenities like a shower mat and nightstand lamps; however, cold buffet dishes were available.
