Happy to Go Back!
The Carpenter is a lovely place -- lots of concrete, mattresses low to the ground, hipster vibe with lots of pleasant dogs and coffee. The location is good although I prefer the sister hotel, The San Jose, on South Congress for locale. Staff was incredibly friendly and helpful, especially Austin and John and the three baristas at the wonderful coffee shop.

Great service!!!
This hotel had 5 star service. The staff was on top of every request within moments. We dealt most with Joseph at the front desk. Very friendly Brooklyn guy who made sure everything was good. The style of the hotel is a bit off the wall and fairly typical of Austin: a fusion collision of industrial, Bauhaus, and dorm room, but all appears to be very carefully thought out. I would definitely recommend this place.

The carpenter was a lovely experience as it’s a very unique Concept in a fun city. The Room comes with earplugs as the hotel accommodations are pretty much converted dormitories, but they are styled well and very comfortable. I would definitely stay here again.
