I booked this as a foreigner, unaware of the generally poor reputation of the Super 8 brand (though mea culpa, I should have researched this). This place is very meh - a cheap motel, not terrible, but nothing special. Very basic, amenities workable but in poor condition, stained curtains etc. you get the picture. Pictures appear to be old or 'enhanced'. Was fine for a brief stay but would not stay again. Nb, if planning to walk to downtown from here, the motel is on the other side of the i35, an extremely busy multi-lane freeway with often non-functional pedestrian lights.

the beds were comfortable - however the lamps were missing bulbs in both of our rooms - breakfast was bare minimum at best - definitely could be updated, but it served the purpose we needed.

Parking was easy and free, although the parking lot needs to be repaved. Free parking in that neighborhood is pretty remarkable so I was really happy. The room was clean and functional. The A/C kicked in quickly and cooled the room down very fast. Free breakfast was good, a little carb heavy, but for the price of the room, excellent value. The outside of the motel has been recently repainted, but the walkways are dirty and rundown, which affects the look of the place. The staff is quiet until you are friendly, then they are very friendly . Unfortunately, our TV didn't work, although someone did try to fix it. Also, the ice maker did not work. I loved not needing to pay for parking at the Moody Center since it was only a 15 minute walk. Excellent value. I will stay there again next time I go to the Moody Center.

Good location, bad neighborhood. The pool wasn’t open, the ice machine didn’t work, no pressure in the faucet. I had to brush my teeth in the bathtub.

The maid tried to steal my bottle of liquor. After checking in, I went to my room on the first floor and I put my bottle of alcohol in the fridge. I used the bathroom and the toilet didn’t flush, also the colorful blankets on the beds were stained, gross. I gathered my things and I went to the front and requested a new room. They gave me a new room on the 2nd floor and told the maid to clean the room that I just left right before she was leaving for the day. I get into my new room, then quickly realize that I forgot to grab the alcohol out of the fridge in the first room. So I ran outside to flag the maid down and said I forgot something in the fridge. All of the sudden, she pulls my bottle of alcohol out of her car then says “I was about to take it to the front desk” which is a lie because her car was parked right next to the front office and need I say again, she pulled it out of her car. I ran downstairs to grab it and she repeatedly stated that she was going to take it to the front desk. So, be careful staying here. Also, the sheets in my new room were stained and had cigarette burns in them. You get what you pay for I guess.

Sorry, but I didn't even make it in! The outside of this place gave me pause. It's completely run down from the outside and honestly when I pulled in I thought it was no longer open. Nothing about it made me feel safe so I opted not to even get out of my car! Money wasted.

Well priced hotel for the location. Ok not the newest or plushest of hotels but way cheaper than others downtown and room nice and quiet with good aircon. If you just want somewhere to sleep and spend money on entertainment instead then this option is great

This is a basic road-side motel. No frills. It's most compelling feature is that it is right across I-35 from UT, which I was visiting with my daughter. The rooms look and smell old, and the ice machine never worked. But, the staff were friendly and helpful. I arrived with a broken foot, and they shuffled things to give me a room on the first floor, which I appreciated. So, it's good for what it is. Just don't expect the Ritz.

Don't judge a book by its cover, or the downtown Austin Super 8 by its exterior. Paint is faded and the property doesn't look great, but my one-queen bed room was clean and in decent condition. If you're a no-frills person like me who just needs a place to sleep, you'll find Super 8 perfectly suitable. Breakfast wasn't much to write home about. There was an ice bowl where yogurt had been, but by the time I arrived at 8:15 (breakfast from 6-9), it was empty and didn't get refilled. Other options were carbs (Texas waffles, toast, cereal, mini muffins, oatmeal packets) and a few apples, and one too-green banana. That said, breakfast was included, and it filled me up until I got home a few hours later, so I can't complain. At $90, it was a great price for easy driving access to downtown. I would stay here again.
