"Long favored by cost-conscious artists and musicians, it's charming and hip without feeling pretentious."
"Basic rooms in a trendy old motel in the funky South Congress district. A favourite with visiting musicians, it’s across the street from the venerable Continental Club."
"Yes, this is a motel, but it has a fun, vibrant sense of style and is a far cry from typical, cheap chain digs."
"This isn’t a motel masquerading as a Turkish steam bath. It’s just got a mad sense of humor to go with its mad South Congress Ave. location."
"What used to be a fading 1938 motor court is now a beloved, quintessentially-Austin motel." Full review
"The Austin Motel's retro sign is a local icon." Full review
"Funky hotel with theme rooms. Nice staff, cool location."
" The 41 guest rooms are a retro mash-up of red vinyl tufted beds, silk-screened music posters, and kitschy lip-shaped rotary phones." Full review
