Pros: Whether you are staying one night or one month, Drifter Jacks is the most affordable and comfortable place you can stay! Perfect for solo travelers and groups, the location is close enough to attractions and sits right on a major bus route. I stayed for a week and was comfortable the entire trip. Ethan and Jaime were especially wonderful hosts, however the entire staff was friendly and courteous. Coffee and tea were available 24 hours and breakfast was available every morning which was a huge bonus, especially since the nightly rate was so low! Can't wait to stay again, I will be recommending Drifter Jack's to all my friends traveling to Austin!

Pros: Wasn't worth the $90 a night. Only one TV channel worked, the curtains had many gross stains on them. When we entered the room it was about 90 degrees and took forever to get to cool down and the cold water didn't work in the shower. I've stayed at many hotel for less and they were MUCH nicer
