It's a nice place overall. I was happy with the room and price especially. Lobby was surprisingly upscale, dudes behind the counter were friendly and accommodating. The mattress was a lil stiff but I got a good night's sleep once the nearby music outside died down around 9 and the neighboring room cut off their TV around 11 (thi The neighborhood is run down but the place has no control over that. They do a good job with security, "one entrance" that's monitored at least.

The room was extremely comfortable, offering a small desk with chair, a comfy bed, a quality air conditioner, small fridge and microwave. The toilet and sink were also very clean. The staff were extremely friendly, knowledgeable, and professional, they showed me around the place, taught me how to use the public transport even when Australia Google had blocked the Umo app.

The shower is off suite so make sure to bring some slides. Despite some furniture and decor not being fully installed the bed was comfortable enough. Make sure to request hand soap.

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

Decent & budget friendly lodging place!

Decent place, budget friendly, peaceful and quiet! It is a refurbished/repurposed nursing home, but it was no problem to us. It was as comfortable as any other hotel stay I've been at. The only thing that made us a little iffy was the community showers. Its 3 showers in one room, but you can lock the door so no one else goes in. It was real clean, the bed was soft, it had a microwave, a small fridge, your own bathroom, tv, drawers and desk with chair.
