What guests think

Across mixed reviews, Austin Motor Inn is a budget, no-frills spot with inconsistent cleanliness and occasional window-only interactions, offset by easy freeway access and occasional mentions of comfortable beds, strong TVs, and acceptable value.

Many note the lack of in-room appliances such as a fridge, microwave, or ice, along with pool closures or wear and parking that ranges from decent to tight. Noise and neighborhood feel vary, with several reports of late-night activity and a rough area near the freeway, though a few guests found stays quiet enough. Expect a very basic stay focused on price over comfort.

The greeting was from behind a glass panel. I dont ask a lot from a motel, but the room was very basic. No ice bucket, no fridge, no coffee facilities, no shampoo, no body wash, the bed creaked every time you moved. Im sure there was more, but thats enough. I paid the same peice somewhere else on my trip and gadcsll those things I've mentioned. I thinkbtheres vetter facilitiee at Bates motel!

The property is not so clean on the outside but the rooms are kept nice and there are no roaches anywhere I could see. Pool is nice but small, staff are nice and accomodating as much as they can. Vending machines are fairly cheap here. Parking can sometimes be packed. Definitely good to book if u need something cheap and quick, deposit is 10 a night on card only though.

Check in took longer than expected because the front desk clerk was out on the premises checking rooms. The room was clean. Furthermore there was no microwave, refrigerator nor ice maker. The bed was too firm, I woke up with slight back pain. Yet I do love the Roku Tv with all the channels to watch and me being able to cast to the TV.

People were active all night: working on their cars, listening to loud television, having conversations at high volume, banging on doors. Floor was not clean so I wore socks or shoes and just took them off to get into bed. Sheets seemed clean but had holes, towels were threadbare and rough and we had only two small bath towels and one wash cloth. We checked out early in the morning and forfeited 2 nights of payment. This motel was not for visitors to the city but seemed to be a residence inn.

After several bugs were killed, we decided we couldnt stay there. When we turned in the key, the employees comment to us was "yeah....there arent words for it". Stay away ftom here even if you just need a bed for the night.

You can tell that this property has had its fair share of experience and years but overall the room, bed, restroom and access to parking was flawless and the customer service was very honest and professional. Affordable rates for people who want to save money. I would strongly recommend.

Not the nicest place. Beds are lumpy and uncomfortable. Towels are like sandpaper and the size of a hand towel. Sheet and crappy bedspreads had stains and cigarette holes. Pillows terrible and flat. Water for shower was hot. Air conditioner, TV and WiFi worked. Noisy by hi way, though.

It’s a Motor Inn, so manage expectations. I must have been given a smoking room, as it definitely smelled. The bed was surprisingly comfortable. The TV offering was also surprisingly great. Bathroom amenities … well bring your own. I assume the fella at check-in was the owner, and he was very nice.

I was told to wait in the parking lot for ocher 20 minutes. During that time the office doors were locked and several auspicious people knocked on my car. I also witnessed several crimes but the staff refused to open the door. I left the premises and went to another hotel. Horrible environment. Totally creepy and unsafe.
