Cons (-) I had a piece of gum stuck to the bottom of the remote, they came and cleaned it up, but I felt that there should have been more done since I paid so much-- they said they would help out but didnt. odd. I choose night hotels bc I want them to be clean

Pros (+) Breakfast was delicious
Cons (-) Breakfast was very expensive- seemed disproportionate. I think a little more direction on how to get to check in would have been appropriate when we called from the parking lot. Considering the distance it would have been nice if someone had asked if we needed help with our bags.

Pros (+) Great location for visiting South Congress and downtown is walkable. Nice chilled surroundings.
Cons (-) Very expensive for what it is and no breakfast included - apart from location it lacked any extras and would not qualify as a high-end hotel in Europe. Nice pool but music too loud so not as relaxing as you’d expect.

Cons (-) Super frustrating trying to get ready, especially when staying for 4 nights. The bathroom is way too dark to apply makeup. Attempted to get ready at the breakfast table which again was super dark. Tried sliding it closer to the window. The table literally weighs over a hundred pounds with these iron legs jutting out on the left side of each corner. Watch your knees! Resorted to getting ready on th...

Thomas, Feb 2024
Pros (+) We loved the location, the staff, the room and the vibe of the hotel. It was walking distance to downtown but being on south congress, had such a far away feel. The room was spotless and the bed was so comfortable. We are moving around a lot in Texas and this is by far our favourite hotel and we’ll be back the next time we’re in Austin!
Cons (-) We would have loved some tea and coffee making facilities in the room.
