It was a very last min booking and they were quick to accommodate us. There was an issue (due to it being last min) but they were quick to resolve it. Very friendly and great communication, touch base & follow up with us to make sure everything was fine.
It’s closer to downtown and walkable.
Alot of dining options within walking distance. Very safe and clean location. Extra fee to use parking.
Great location with plenty of food option a short walk from the property.
Good spot, basic accommodation
Great location, room was a little basic and not in the best condition/
Very nice place. Great location
Like the location but did not like the tightness of the parking garage on exiting.
Was amazing, thanks for everything
Noce home away from home
The worst check-in process. Save yourself a headache.
Prior to arrival, it was difficult to coordinate our check-in, as the hotel doesn't allow early check-in and does not have a 24/7 hour number to call. The room was not clean. Our toilet had urine marks on it. I cleaned it myself with a Lysol wipe that I had brought. The area was very noisy and the walls were thin. Our room was right by a stairwell and we were woken up frequently throughout our nights to people screaming either in the stairwell, the hallway or outside on the street. We also did not find the hotel to be safe. The elevator was not working during our stay and we were required to use the stairs from the underground parking to get to our room. We found a homeless man sleeping in the stairwell and had to re-route to take another set of stairs to get to our car.
The communication was very poor. It was hard to differentiate who lived in the apartments and who was there for vacation. There was no one at the front to help. The elevator was out for most of the stay and we had to drag our things up and down 3 floors of stairs. Everything was sent via email. No personal communication.
Please clean better
Check In was difficult Room was not very clean A lot of random pieces of hair throughout the bathroom , shower was dirty
I love this property and location! It’s always clean, the staff are quick to text when you have a question, they are so helpful with check in. Love the changes to the east side of austin.

10/10 wish it had a scenic view but it’s also in an absolute convenient location !
Great Stay
Great stay at a great price. If price stays same, def be my new ATX hotel.
Very convenient location for dining and close to downtown. The staff were friendly and helpful with restaurant suggestions. Thank you
Very straightforward apartment rental. Was only given 2 clean towels for a 4 night stay for 2 people and if you miss the front desk hours, you have to wait until next day to get more. The reason I will not book this place again is the quality of the bed. The apartment had a Murphy bed with the lowest quality mattress I'd ever slept on and it was very uncomfortable especially for 4 nights in a row. I've had much more comfortable beds in cheaper hotels.
Useful location
Great location, floor of room could have been cleaner. Amenities were good and friendly staff
Noisy AC units
Great location in the newly Urbanized part of Austin. Hotel was clean and close to many great stores and restaurants. The only complaint was the mechanical noises in our room. We were kept awake by the air conditioning unit banging and coughing all night. We tried turning it off but could hear the neighbours AC unit going on and off all night. Bring earplugs and take some sleeping pills!
VERY NICE STAY!!! GREAT LOCATION.
Communication with the staff was amazing. Specially Allen and Emme!!! Reservation and check-in process was also very easy and smooth. Our room's AC was not working well and Emme took care of it and moved us to another room. Our room was clean and very comfortable. The bed was AMAZING!!!! Love the location! Lots of little restaurants and bars to walk to. Just keep in mind that weekends can get loud, but the front desk offered us ear plugs and eye masks and that really help! I recommend this place!
Great! Everything was amazing!
The room has everything you need for a convenient stay. The kitchen was nice. The property was well kept. The front desk ladies had excellent customer service. I'll definitely return!
Shower smelled like sewage. I would recommend checking the water treatment or plumbing.
Great stay great staff
Great place to stay at
It’s was an amazing stay loved the place
The location was great and the staff were quick to respond to an issue we had with the room. The bed was a Murphy bed and not very comfortable.
Everything was amazing and simple!
I haven’t been able to contact anyone for my access code to the building. Nor have I been sent the number to any of my devices. I made the mistake of booking this reservation at 7:30 PM thinking I could access the building immediately and an hour later still nothing.
Very impressed with concierge and all amenities
The property was in a good location. Walkable to lots of great bars and dining. While the property was well located, the room was good enough for a 1 night stay. With the bed in the studio being a Murphy bed, the mattress was super thin and soft, it would deflate as soon as you layed on it. In addition the room description is not for all rooms in the property, for example, it was advertised that a 55 inch Samsung smart TV would be in the room, it was an LG TV that was much smaller. It being a studio it was a better fit for the room but still inaccurate.
Great stay!
Amazing location and great building. We really enjoyed our stay here. Everything is clean and feels new. The staff is very helpful and accommodating!
My friend and I loved this stay. The location was ideal. The neighborhood was full of great places to eat and shop. We walked around and ate at a great food truck spot and rode the bicycle taxi around. The room was clean and i loved the fact that there was a concierge there to help when we arrived.
Close to everything, easy uber pick up and drop off!
Great getaway in Austin
We enjoyed our stay. GREAT location things to do and eat all around us. Room was clean and perfect for our stay! Laddies in the lobby were very helpful as well.
The location was cute and was very walkable which was fantastic since there are lots of bars and places to eat near by. The only complains we have is that the 24/7 line isnt really 24/7 we didn’t get a reply until the next day. The wifi was not working at all which was bad because we barely had signal as it was so the WiFi would’ve really helped. Overall it’s cute but maybe don’t charge as much for the room and zero service.
Perfect Studio on the right street!
Great place plan to vist and stay in the same place.
Good place but it’s tiresome process to retrieve the keys and parking pass.
I can’t remember the name of the front desk girl who helped us, but she was fantastic. She worked very hard and was always friendly and accommodating, remembered our dog’s name, and even came to our room to take a look at our AC unit. We loved Zilker Brewery and Spicy Boys Chicken, Suerte was delicious, and I loved the convenience of having a Royal Blue Grocery across the street for snacks. It’s not the most quiet at night, but that’s to be expected on E. 6th. Overall, I would definitely stay here again.
My favorite place to stay!
Great two bedroom value!
Great location and super awesome accommodation! It wasn’t quite as clean as a normal hotel room the the rooms were small but it was such an amazing location it was okay
The beds were comfortable and the apartment spotless. If you’re planning on doing a lot of cooking there aren’t a lot of cooking utensils. There’s a ton of food/bar options nearby so the location is perfect for finding food easily after a busy day. The neighborhood is safe. Easy access to other areas like downtown and the South Congress area (a few minutes away by car).
Very nice and lively area with great food options. The neighborhood got quiet around 11pm which we didn’t mind. Very clean apartment with an easy check in. Great views from our balcony. Had a great time in the area. We will definitely return
Wonderful location. There were bars and several food options within walking distance. Check-in process was quick and easy! Parking was on- site and convenient, too. We stayed a Friday night and it was a bit noisy from the night life but it wasn’t terrible.
Perfect local
Cute apartment right in East 6th street. The location was amazing and the apartment was clean and modern. It had all the amenities you need. Great communication every step of the way.
Property was very simple but clean and in a great location
Location is prime. The staff were very friendly. Small minor issues such as they don’t offer extra blankets and the small coffee table had a broken leg. Luckily, it didn’t fall on us because the table is heavy. The room is very small. Really small. Other than that it was great. Will go back.
Great stay! Parking was a little tricky, but once I figured out how it worked, it was easygoing.
Great spot in East Austin
We really enjoyed our stay here and really appreciated the quick communication and customer service. The location is perfect and you can walk to lots of bars and restaurants. The parking is convenient.
Room is small but functional, clean, and modern.
Good location. Unit could use a little TLC
The property is great, the staff is friendly and the area is lively. Not knowing much about Austin, I would recommend this property for someone who wants to stay up late and party. The apartment we stayed in overlooks 6th street and there was a lot of noise into the night including traffic, drunks and lots of slamming. Communication about how to get into the unit was fine but the procedure for making parking arrangements was unclear and I had received no communication about that prior to arrival.
Great deal. Great property.
Terrific overall
I had a great stay overall - the location is great, the unit was super clean and comfortable. My primary suggestion has to do with the shower - the hot water doesn't get quite hot enough for a winter stay. Otherwise everything else was terrific!
This is an amazing place that gives you an experience without being in a hotel. Staff are great and ambiance is amazing! Highly recommend if you want close to everything and not a hotel!
Location
Nice location across from a brewery and small grocery store. Restaurants and food trucks in the area. Nights are a bit loud. About 2 miles from downtown proper and 6th street bars. My room had a trundle bed, sofa, chair and table. Good coffee downstairs but bring your own cup
Staff was super friendly many food trucks and restaurants outside the property and a lot to explore around overall great stay
I love this place! It's right in heart of East 6th st. Great value! You basically move to Austin for a couple days. Soooo much better than a Hotel!!!!
Walking distance from plenty of food places and a small drive away from Rainey street!
I loved how we were so close to night life and could walk anywhere!
It's walking distance to pretty much everything downtown.
My only complaint is that the bathroom lights weren’t bright enough.
Great location and apartment was in great condition. Will definitely stay here again. Lots of bars and restaurants. Only downside was our room was on the 2nd floor right next to a bar with a large outdoor space so a bit noisy til early in the morning.
We loved the location! Walking distance to bars and restaurants! Place was clean and staff was super friendly. Would definitely go back!
Sentral is disappointing
They did not tell how to park. I called three times and left a voicemail the day of check in and no one returned my call. Asked three times for 2 more pillows and never got them. Spend extra $ and stay some place else. There is no pool for use for at the 1630 address as advertised on hotels.com. Super disappointed.
I had a wonderful one-week stay. Everyone at Sentral was super friendly, helpful, and resourceful. I will book in the future.
Had a great stay. Walkable to several bars and restaurants. Very helful and nice staff. Clean. Only minus was that my window door didnt seem to lock all the way so there was a bit of noise from the street I couldnt block. Will stay again.
Self service was easy plus there was staff onsite. Rooms were clean and the property as a whole was well kept.
Check in was complex as was the parking. Garage not suitable for large truck though we made it work. Room was similar to what was in the photo when booking but decor was not as nicely appointed, no balcony, and view was an abandoned bldg and dumpster. Not likely to stay again.
Room smells and bed wasn’t comfortable . But the location was good.
The property conditions!
Great place
Was in a central location, accessible, clean
The staff at Sentral was great. Fast responses and they worked with me every step of the way!
Great location. Clean, comfortable studio apartment with everything I needed. Lobby coffee was an awesome bonus.
The room was nicely appointed and clean. The check in process was contactless, but there were many steps which took a little getting used to. Everyone was very friendly and helpful!
We had a great stay. Getting the elevator fob was a bit tricky and the street noise is loud, but it does die down after 12 am or so. Great local eateries and walkable places to go.Clean and spacious for two. Had everything we needed & more.
Cool spot but missing some basics
This place is pretty cool, I would stay here again but my major complaint is that it was missing a few basics. There's no way to watch TV without signing into a streaming service, there were no extra blankets, and it's QUITE loud due to the bars downstairs and across the street. I was in room 301, which faced the street. I'm a heavy sleeper but this still really bothered me. I would recommend earplugs. Also, it seems like they should've offered coffee/breakfast but I didn't see anything. Their key fob/code entry was confusing at first because the directions given are lacking some steps, but luckily an employee helped me get into my room.
Floor was dirty, tub did not drain, sink did not drain.
It is in a nice little neighborhood with shops and bars/restaurants. Felt very safe to walk around. Quick Uber to downtown or Rainey St for about $10. Great location. I did not like the bed, it was not comfortable. Be aware that the sofa is not necessarily like the one pictured and it is a very small loveseat that cannot be slept on. Overall this is a good property and do recommend.
I couldn't get logged into internet for an hour so lost lots of work time. Had to do downstairs after hours and get help. there wasn't a spare blanket. I was freezing. Had to get up and put extra clothes on and lay a towel and my coat on the bed AND turn up heat to keep warm. I prefer sleeping with heat down but need enough warm blankets to stay warm. Was a bummer.
It was a Murphy bed!
First off the location is excellent. You are right in the heart of the East 6th Street scene. Unfortunately our room only had a fold out "Murphy" bed. The mattress was so uncomfortable it was like sleeping on a fold out couch bed. Super thin. Would not recommend sleeping here.
Great stay
This was a great little property.
The location on E 6th street was awesome. There was a great little restaurant downstairs and across the street was a brewery and a small market (great for picking up beer, wine, and snacks). Although there were several cool spots near the property, the shops and restaurants on South Congress were only an $8-$10 Uber ride away, and the bars and restaurants on West 6th were less than a mile/20 min walk. The property itself was great. The building is a small apartment complex with both residents and short-term guests. Our unit was a small studio with a couch, Murphy bed, unfurnished balcony, and kitchen. The size was perfect for us as we don't tend to spend a lot of time in our room when traveling. The lobby had a Starbucks coffee machine (which we unfortunately didn't notice until the day we left). In addition to the gym there was also a cute little outdoor space. Key codes were sent an hour or two before check in and getting the fob from the key Cafe was super easy. We were greeted by a super nice property manager on the way in as well. We didn't utilize parking but there was a parking pass hanging next to the door in the unit. The only complaint I could see people having is that it was a little noisy outside at night, however in all fairness, it was Halloween weekend and there was a pub crawl going on at the restaurant downstairs. Overall, we loved the property and would definitely stay here again!
This was meant to be a one night stay to hold us over before our longer term rental was ready. We wish we stayed longer! The room was spacious and clean, the area was perfect and walkable to some of our favorite spots (Zilker Brewing is across the street, and White Horse Tavern was a quick walk). Highly recommend!
-10/10 location -staff is nice Bad: -elevator didn’t work properly and is almost 3 years overdue for inspection -had to take care of some of the largest cockroaches I’ve ever seen -parking garage was clearly designed by ants (almost impossible to park or get in and out unless you had a tiny car)
It is worth the price, it was one of the least expensive hotels in the area, and you get a lot of space. However, it was dilapidated and the lobby/elevators were really dirty. My room was a bit dirty too. I get the concept of this, no one to check you in, you get a key fob and never see anyone. Easy. Unless you want early check in, late check out or parking. Those things are not available. I reached out the day before my stay to get parking and never heard back, so was stuck moving my car around and paying for street parking. It does its job for the price.
Austin Stay
Clean enough. Some of the towels had stains and there was dust on some areas. Walls are very very VERY thin. I could hear every word our neighbors were saying and then the people above us decided it would be a good idea to move furniture around at 1 in the morning. Overall very comfortable and i felt safe.
Good location for dinning. Wonderful staff
Perfect place for us to make our first Austin trip memorable! We really enjoyed our unit and how easy it was to check in, check out, and communicate with housekeeping. Our property was very close to all the grocery stores, food options, and bars. Walking around the neighborhood felt so safe and was very nice. Not to mention, the staff are so nice and very genuine at this property. We had such a great experience, thank you so much!
Nice, quaint apartment perfect for a weekend in Austin, especially if you are an Alabama fan because Buford's Bar, the Austin Bama Alumni watch party location, is only one mile away.
poor
too many regulations to stay in this place. And check in at 4 is not convenient and check out at 11:00, not enough time. this can not be the normality. It would be if people don't complaint. It's better to stay in a regular hotel
I chose Sentral because of its location. It turns out to be a lovely place to stay with amazing, helpful staff. It’s immaculately clean and very comfortable. I’ll remember it for future visits to Austin. I do recommend bringing earplugs to sleep with, because of the bustling nightlife in the area, but that’s not the fault of the property.
Great location
Do not stay here if you want to actually sleep. There are no curtains to block out all the bar and street noise and then guests came in at all hours 1, 2, 3 am and even again with loud music at 7 am. There were supposed to be noise alarms in the rooms and security guards but nothing was done as people loudly partied all night.

Nice place. It’s kind of sterile in a corporate apartment way but was clean and well stocked and set in a great location for attending SXSW.
