Firehouse Hostel

Great energy, good price. Speakeasy on the first floor was wonderful and great bartenders. Went on a bar crawl with one of the hosts Alexia and she made the evening very enjoyable for everyone involved! Would definitely stay here again.

had a good stay here. staff is helpful, bathrooms and showers are pretty clean, and the beds are comfy. one thing is that if you're a light sleeper and you're not going to bed super late you might wanna look elsewhere cause of how loud thwmusic from the bar downstairs is. AC also isn't the best, and it gets fairly muggy and hot in the rooms. but other than that it's a great, clean place with cozy vibes and a cool bar downstairs

I had a great time at Firehouse Hostel! The location is one of it's strongest and most obvious pro's as it's in the middle of downtown. It's kept clean, the staff is awesome, and it was super easy meeting others staying there. Ana led a group of us on a pub crawl and a tour to Barton Springs and did a great job! On the pub crawl, she showed us around 6th street and provided multiple options/suggestions making for a great night out, and on the Barton Springs tour, she guided us all along the river showing us places where we could use rope swings and jump into the river creating a great day spent with friends out on the river. I had a great time staying here and I recommend this hostel to anybody looking for accommodation in Austin! My only critique is that there's not really any common areas aside from the kitchen.

Hostel is rustic but clean; great location; staff was knowledgeable and friendly; FREE laundry facilitities! kitchen is main gathering place(good people and great discussions); I chose the mixed, 10 bed dorm and feit safe and respected. wish there would have been a separate sitting room for reading or quiet conversation. Overall a pleasant experience

Best hostel in Austin – feels like home! Firehouse Hostel is genuinely one of the best hostels I've ever stayed at. The beds are super comfortable with privacy curtains, the rooms are clean, and the atmosphere is incredibly welcoming – it really does feel like staying with family. The location is unbeatable, literally around the corner from 6th Street and close to everything downtown. The staff are wonderful – Kaz, Anna, Jackie, and the whole team go out of their way to make you feel at home from day one. Will absolutely be back!
