Austin Travel Forum

Hi all, need help in looking for a place to stay in Austin, preferably close to the Convention Centre. Price range, less than $100 per night.
I'm looking at options aside from motels, inn and hotels like Extended Stay. Any good suggestions?
Would consider time sharing places if the requirements fit.
Thanks!

You can do the Homestead suites for $89 a night Homestead Studio Suites
507 S. First St.Austin, TX 78704, Telephone: 512-476-1818. They are across the river from the convention center, so you can either walk there (10-15 minute walk) or take a free bus called the Dillo. Or you can stay at the Austin Motel 1220 S. Congress Ave., Austin, Texas 78704 • 512.441.1157, which is in a *great* location, walking distance to shops and restaurants, with single rooms starting at $65 a night and go up from there, they are about 1 1/2 miles from the convention center, and again you could take the free dillo bus from there too, or just get a nice walk in. So, hopefully that helps you. Enjoy your trip!
