second time staying them and i absolutely love how convenient it is towards the moody center and the austin convention center, and very affordable for the downtown area.

10/10 Exceptional

Nice place for a hostel, there can be some questionable people in the area outside the place at times but it’s more so the city itself. Would certainly stay here again when I return
Brady, 1-night trip

Perfect hostel in terms of amenities, staff, guests, location. A bit pricier than European hostels but well worth it.

Eduard, 4-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Firehouse Hostel was a fantastic place to stay! The location is perfect—right in the heart of everything, with easy access to great bars, food, and live music. The staff were super friendly and helpful, and the atmosphere had a fun, welcoming vibe. The historic building adds a lot of charm, and the hidden speakeasy behind the bookshelf was such a cool touch. Clean rooms, comfortable beds, and great value. Would definitely stay here again!

It was my first time in a Hostel, staff was really friendly as my roommates. Bathrooms were damage during my stay and there was a funny smell in the whole building. It is located in the downtown, so you will be close to everything. It's definitely a good option considering the price.
