Firehouse Hostel Reviews

Excellent location, friendly and helpful staff. Bathrooms were decently clean. Met so many cool peeps from around the world. It was def party central. Not the place to stay if you want peace and quiet.

This is the place you want to stay if you are young in mentality.

Breakfast consisted of toast and cereal, and if the bread ran out reception staff didn't care. Not good considering the high price

The kitchen was quite limited in the cooking utensils provided (not pots for cooking pasta, etc). The kitchen doubled as the common area but it didn't seem to be an issue as there were of chairs in the hallways for you to hang out, and a really nice bar downstairs for the evenings. It was a damn noisy hostel between the dirty 6th bars, the bar downstairs, and trucks driving past at 5am. My bed was on a 30° angle towards the wall so I woke up lying against the wall. Wifi was buggy.

8 bed dorm with bunk beds, very close quarters. Made reservation for single gender room but this wasn't available at check in.

great location if you want the party of 6th street real close. If you're looking for a quiet time i would not recommend staying here. Other wise its great!

Firehouse Hostel is a conveniently placed gem in the heart of downtown Austin. With so many places to eat and hear live music with in walking distance! The staff was very friendly and helpful; clean bathrooms, sheets, and occasionally towels, and a kitchenette. I didn't get a chance to try the breakfast but I am sure it was great! I will definitely name Firehouse Hostel as my number one place to stay in Austin!!!

I missed a beverage and snack machine.

Staff were very friendly and helpful.

We enjoyed completely our stay at Firehouse, which was the perfect place to stay, very near to the street of the clubs in Austin!

I am really happy to have been in this hostel. There is no best location and everybody was friendly and helpful! The staff is really nice and the lounge is awesome aswell! I recommend you this place! :)

Very clean and well located with a very friendly staff. I would definitely stay there again.

hostel was fun. it can get roudy after a late night out on 6th so get mad or join them! if you can't, then buy the earplugs at the front desk. also, remember to drop your linen off before you check out so the next person has fresh linen too. breakfast was good. overall, great place to crash downtown, friendly staff, and very affordable. thanks firehouse!

Perfect location: just behind the best road of the city: with all the bars and restaurants. Really close to everything. Very nicely decorated, with a wonderful staff.

Great place to stay, so convenient and friendly staff
