Fred's place was clean, quiet, and a great little oasis for a quick getaway to Austin. The hotel staff are super friendly and even let us check in early! It's within walking distance to plenty of bars/restaurants, but tucked away enough so that you can avoid the nighttime rowdiness on 6th street if you'd like. The only negative is that they do try to sell you on a timeshare as soon as you check in, but after a few attempts at refusal they let you go on your way with some awkward passing glances for the remainder of the stay.
