Great location
This hostel is in a great spot and the facilities are nice - there’s even a speakeasy on property.
Some notes.. I wasn’t aware it’s an all ages hostel so there was a wide range of ages in the shared room. Also we had a disruptive guest in the room and it wasn’t clear how to circulate concerns/security.

The property was overall great for the price! The staff were nice, as was the speakeasy/ bar directly attached. It was pretty clean (beds, bathroom) and maintenance issues were quickly addressed. The rooms did smell kind of bad/ musty/ humid, but just from the fact that there were 6 people in that space. I would definitely stay again!

The bathrooms were a little gross and leaky, but for the price I didn't really mind so much.
It was my first time in a hostel, and it was a good experience.
If i were to come back to Austin for the same event I attended, I would for sure come back.

Bedbugs were found on my bed and i had to wake up to put my clothes and bagpack into the dryer to prevent bedbugs from spreading to my home. The girl said she refunded my night stay but she didnt.

Great central hostel
Staff was great at check-in, and loads of bars just around the corner. Bathroom could’ve been cleaner, but was fine. Very satisfied for the price
