Travelodge by Wyndham Austin South

Great experience.

Für die erste Nacht vollkommen ok. Einfaches Motel in zentraler Lage.

Tl;DR: stay elsewhere. The place is run down and dirty, and the hotel room description has no correlation with reality. Upon arrival, I immediately noticed that there was a desk but no chair, and asked for one, which they brought. I then checked the room more carefully and noted multiple discrepancies with my reservation, which stated "Room Details: Free high-speed WiFi, free continental breakfast, mini-refrigerator, microwave, inroom temperature control, coffee/tea maker, hair dryer, HDTV, bathroom amenities, alarm clock, desk with lamp, iron, ironing board". There was no coffee/tea maker, no hair dryer, no iron, no alarm clock. A microwave was present, but was not usable because the glass plate was missing. There was also no luggage rack. I pointed out these deficiencies to the man at the front desk, who indicated that over the years all the missing amenities had been reportedly stolen by guests and not replaced (sic). He indicated he would bring me the missing items, however he never did, despite a call two hours later to remind him (he said that he was too busy). The room was reasonably spacious, but very basic and dated. The fitted bed sheet had a hole in it, and there was some hair. Underneath, the mattress pad was badly stained. The bed was otherwise reasonably comfortable. Bathroom with everything in working order and good water pressure in the shower. The wifi required re-entering the password every couple of hours, on a white-on-white sign-in page. Easy parking. Breakfast was included, however I thought it best to skip it. Not only this place is grossly overpriced for what you get, but the room description is deliberately deceptive, as they have no intention of providing the amenities they describe.

If I could give ZERO stars I would. We checked in, thought we could manage to stay for one night but couldn’t and checked out. There is plaster on the walls where it looked like they’d been punched or kicked and hadn’t been painted over yet. The knob is broken on the heater unit so you either have to be hot or cold because you can’t adjust it. There is no Wi-Fi. There is a television but it doesn’t work - and we were told just to use our hotspots but we couldn’t access the settings to even try that. There was sketchy looking stuff going on in the parking lot.

Fairly awful place. We stayed for the Formula 1 race. It’s about 30 mins from COTA. It’s very old and tired. Staff were friendly but the rooms are dark, door locks barely work, bedroom doors covered in damage from folk trying to get in. Lights sometimes worked. There is not shower gel - just a bar of mini soap. The breakfast isn’t great - although they were very pleased with their new Texas waffle maker (and my friends liked it). It would a *strong* avoid for me.

This hotel although in the pictures looks very spectacular, isn't quite so. The king room couldn't be any smaller. Included is a mini fridge that doesn't work. The cord did not reach an outlet. The hair dryer completely broken and TV antenna picked up only a few channels. The mini coffee pot included a moldy coffee filter. (gross) The air conditioning filters were filthy. We had to wash them out ourselves. Breakfast included stale cereal and a out of order waffle machine. My girlfriend and I would never stay here again.

Room wasn’t cleaned at all. Lots of ugly spots on mattress and duvet, and there was absolutely no service from the staff to give me another room or anything. I “had to talk to the manager”, but he was never there or available… Very bad air condition as well.

I booked this last min for my daughter to vsit St. Edwards University the next day. I usually look into places more. The area is sketchy, and as the rooms open to the extetior I was a little apprehensive. The back og parking lot has a bunch of junk. The lights were very small and lightswitches by door didnt work. The bathroom was newish, do at least it wasnt gross. Shower flow was smallest I've seen in a while. They didn't even clean the sink though! Visible dirt/junk in it- perdon must have skipped it. We only slept from 10 pm - 6 am, and got up and left. No frills was ok for this trip- but I'd still suggest lookong elsewhere.

It was close to the airport. I had an early morning flight the next day. It was $145 a night and I figured I'd go economy. Front desk staff were friendly. The room was very smokey. But, for 12 hours, I can deal with it. At midnight the room phone rang. I ignored it. I was almost asleep. Then shortly afterwards I heard sounds outside the door and then messing around with the doorknob. Someone managed to OPEN the door. Fortunately, I had attached the door chain/lever. That's the only reason the door didn't swing wide open. I jumped from bed and yelled STOP. They acted like it was a mistake. I don't think so. i suspect they called the room to see if anyone was there, then tried to break and enter. I should have used the deadbolt lock AND the chain/lever. I told the front desk the next morning. He said, "I'll make a note of this." Never again will I go economy lodging. Sketchy hotel in a sketchy part of town and then a near break-in
