Decent for a quick trip

Decent for a quick overnight trip. I was in town for wedding business so I just needed a place to crash. Clean, but a little noisy with sound carrying from office area and hallways. But overall decent.

The lady at check-in wasn't very friendly or helpful to my hearing impaired husband. The floor in our room was dusty & dirty on my bare feet. Nice shower. Otherwise a bare bones small room. Private porch/balcony" needs furniture to sit & enjoy coffee.

Good budget hotel, but something bit me on my back while I was there. Can't substantiate where it came from 100% though. Just know they appeared the morning after I slept there on my lower back, about 8 of them. Hotel might just want go through their bedding with a fine tooth comb and make sure nothing is brooding, bug-wise, b/c it could get worse and dealing with it early might help if there is an issue. Otherwise, 4 stars.👍

We got into town earlier and was very happy when we were able to check-in early. The manager was out but left a contact number and after speaking with her we got our key and signed papers afterwards. Very nice, polite and professional staff. Will definitely visit when in area.

Good for the price.

The stay was good. The office staff was polite and accommodating considering I had to check in late. The rooms are dated but very clean and the beds are comfortable. It was very typical of a hill country air bnb experience. My only concern is that I woke up cold and looked over to see the curtains slightly blowing. It turns out the window had been open the entire time with just the screen there. If it were anywhere other than Dripping Springs I would have been more alarmed. But other than that it was good for the price.

It's a fine place for the price. Rooms are dated but clean. wifi works fine. They call the beds queens but they are more like full. Blankets are very thin. I was anticipating a nice rustic setting, but it's not very much like that. All in all not bad but pretty average.

Outpost Motel is an older motel reminiscent of an earlier time. The rooms are small but well kept and clean. The owner was friendly at check-in, and pictures and certificates of appreciation on the walls in their office show that they support their community. If you are looking for a modern hotel with all the bells and whistles, this is not it. However, if you are looking for a nice and clean place to lay your head at night, I recommend you check out Outpost Motel.
