8/10 Very Good

Cute but overpriced
Cute motel with a long history. But it’s just that - a motel. And if you’re not in one of the rooms close to the pool, you feel like you‘re in a very mediocre motel. The rooms are nicely decorated but the wear and tear of a place that has been around since the 1930‘s is pretty visible. The rooms are definitely overpriced.

For as famous as this motel is…
We had an east facing window. Blinds with no curtain, so I was awake at 6am. Honestly was up all night from the street lights coming in the window also. Then I got a parking ticket even though I registered my car. The front desk said they would take care of it, which was very nice. Not sure how to confirm that.

Love Austin
Retro hotel in a great neighborhood although the hood is changing to a high-end retail losing some of its charm, it’s been renovated. They did a good job. Bed are a little funky. Staff made all the difference super cool

PAWSitive Experience
We always love staying at the Austin Motel, this was our 3rd or 4th time. We brought our dog along this time around. It was a last minute request and the hotel staff were so quick to accommodate. A pet bed and bowls were provided. The hotel pet fee is Extremely reasonable as well!

We had a last minute trip to plan for my daughter to have some test ran for her Cardiologists Surgeon. We decided to make it a girls trip and it was perfect!

So close, yet so far out! The aesthetic is on point, as is the experience. Floating in the pool as you soak in the vibe and sip on a frozen cocktail…slipping on a striped robe and stretching out on the comfy bed while you consider where to shop and eat on South Congress…buying souvenirs and chatting with the friendly staff in the adorable office…snapping photos of the iconic sign, decor and hidden cuties like the blue and white bather tiles…I wish I could live at the Austin Motel!

It was an interesting stay. It’s a small boutique hotel with amazing robe. I fell in love with those robes and even bought one from their store. They have parking right on their property for the hotel guests which was convenient. Lots of shopping in the area and lots of dining options.
