The exterior could use updated paint, but the room was absolutely excellent, both in how it was laid out, the cleanliness, and care taken by staff. Everything was very positive during our stay.

Just fine for a low price hotel. The room was clean, the bed was comfortable, and it was quiet. I’ve stayed here before and I’ll stay here again.

Stay was ok. The guy we checked in with was very nice, not sure his name. Older Motel, so it was relatively clean for what it is. The walls could use some attention. I would stay again if I needed a cheap place to stay on the south west side.

The property was a little hard to get to due to one way streets around the location. They also did not offer breakfast but did have a microwave and refrigerator in the room. The room was clean no smells no bugs.

Okay stay

The motel is fairly run-down and there are no special amenities like breakfast, a pool, or room service. The pictures I saw online make it look really nice, but I was a little unsure at first when I got there and saw it. I even checked for two-way mirrors because I thought, “where did I bring my child to stay?!” I always bring my own pillow and I was glad I had because the two on my bed were really yellowed, lumpy, and stained. The fridge had a leak so the pizza box we put in it got soaked. The room had an odd smell that we never were ever able to place, and the lights didn’t turn on right away- there was like a three to five second delay. But. There were zero bugs of any kind, the shower had hot water, the AC worked, and the mattresses were comfortable and clean. The room itself was clean- no carpet so that was a plus. I think for the overall condition of the place and the room it was over-priced, but it was still cheaper than most places around.

Rooms are spacious, clean and comfortable. I really liked that the room had a microwave, fridge and coffee in the room. The ice machine was full and a great convenience. I was pleased with the shower. Ceiling fan was a plus. The towels were thin and small. The outside was a little scary, but ending up being safe.

It’s a place to sleep but hopefully it’s cheap.

I’ve never paid so much to stay in such a sketchy motel. Room was fine. Dead bugs but at least they were dead. Shower was terrible. Area was questionable but I didn’t have any issues. Will not return. When my friends picked me up they offered to just have me stay with them instead.

Heart of Texas was ok. It was the only "affordable" option in Austin for a quick overnight, so I wasn't expecting much. Room was clean but white bed covers had some stains stains. Towels were small and worn. Bed was pretty comfortable. Room was quiet despite property being located right on the highway. Property was pretty rundown. The guy that checked me in was not particularly friendly. If you just need a cheap place to sleep, it's okay
