Property is very small, with free parking (+). As other reviewers state, there is a “hotel cat” which has a run of the place. I am not a cat person, but it is hard to not find it cute that we were actually greeted in the parking lot by Louie the Cat! Room was great across the board - bathroom, shower, bed and bedding, spaciousness, etc. Staff was very nice and friendly, quick to answer questions or offer advice on local stuff. Franklin BBQ was a central part of our stay in Austin, and this hotel is a short walk down the street. This allowed me to leave early am to get in line, while my wife could enjoy her morning and walk down closer to opening time (and yes, Franklin BBQ is worth the trip alone).

Wow! We can't say thank you enough for your wonderful review! At Hotel Eleven we always encourage our guests to explore our incredible neighborhood and check out all the BEST BBQ joints in town! There's always the chance Louie will join you on our rooftop patio for a sunset next time you're here. We greatly appreciate you noticing all the smaller details we meticulously chose with our guests in mind. We hope to see you again soon! Cheers,
