It's nice except for the internet

The internet wasn't great. Videos buffered constantly even at low quality. The TV wasn't working when I arrived but they were able to get it fixed in minutes.

The location is quiet and there is plenty of parking. The bed is comfortable with lots of pillows. My room had no art work on the walls, but it looks like there are hangers for art. My room could use a little more detailed cleaning and a coat of paint as there are scrapes and scratches on the walls and trim .

We stayed here 1 night as we were attending a concert in the area. We didn’t spend much time there. It was clean, cheap, and served its purpose. Would recommend if you need something decent near the UT campus.
