This hotel has a lot going for it: plenty of free garage parking; tidy, comfortable rooms equipped with microwaves & mini fridges; a rooftop pool; friendly staff; easy access to Lady Bird Lake; and, proximity by automobile to Austin highlights such as South Congress Street, Terry Black's Barbecue, Sandy's & more. I have a couple minor complaints, none of which should stop you from staying here. The television in my room hadn't been set up properly, so the channels didn't correspond to reality; the microwave & TV kept tripping the circuit breaker; some of the doors (to service areas, mostly) looked shabby; water pressure in my shower was good but not great. I booked my room mid-flight en route to Austin after learning that my reservation at a South Congress motel had been "cancelled internally" six weeks earlier without notice, so I was nervous about finding a decent replacement. This hotel exceeded expectations. You won't be able to walk to any attractions, other than LBL & a couple of excellent food trucks 50 feet away. But you won't get charged $50/day for parking, either. I will happily book here the next time I visit Austin.

This hotel has several advantages, one of which is free on-site parking. The staff is friendly, and the rooms are consistently clean and comfortable. Additionally, it is conveniently located right next to the trail and close to Rainey Street. The gym is well-equipped for a good workout. I really enjoyed my stay here and will keep coming back because of the excellent amenities, great location, and helpful staff.

This is a good hotel on a budget. It’s in need of fresh paint and a good power washing. However the location is excellent and view of town lake made the grit bearable. Parking is also free and convenient.
