    My stay at the Quarters was perfect for UT Orientation. It is within walking distance of all activities, and the breakfast was great! The staff is so very helpful and even woke me up in the middle of the night to tell me that they discovered that I had left the lights on my vehicle. There is no registration for your parking so it must have taken time to track down whose truck it actually was! That is over and above outstanding service!!


    Great Place to Stay!

    Hardin House is within three blocks of UT - a good place to stay when visiting. Parking was easy and on the property. Breakfast was more than adequate. It was quiet and clean - staff were very helpful.


    Great people. Great value.

    You'd never know it is normally a dormitory. The rooms were not fancy but very comfortable and clean. The common kitchen and sitting areas were well maintained. Free internet and exercise facility were an unexpected bonus. And best of all, the staff were super pleasant, helpful and knowledgeable about the local area. I'd definitely stay again. Vanessa

    Just what we were looking for! Comfortable, unique, close to everything we wanted to do in the downtown Austin area. Rooms are basic, but clean and comfortable and the common living areas are quite nice. Good breakfast! Very convenient parking. Will definitely stay here again when we're in Austin.
