Stayed for one night. I had an atrium room, where the window faced the internal atrium, so it was dark with very little natural light. There was a loud rushing noise all night which was probably from an air conditioning duct nearby. If I was going to be there for any longer I'd have definitely asked to change to a... More

Failure to replenish towels after they removed them from the room. Failure to keep messes in the halway picked up. Loud party in a common, open air, internal area of the hotel went on unabated until 1:00 am.

Thank you for your feedback as it helps us improve our hotel. I apologize that we provided you with subpar housekeeping service during your stay with us.

We booked a block of rooms for our daughter's wedding. When our guests called to reserve a room, the call center gave them misinformation that the block was full or quoted them the wrong price. When the problem was reported, we were promised it would be resolved. It was not. It took over an hour on the day our guests... More

Michael at front desk found us a quiet, city view room that was ready early in the day allowing us to freshen up, rest a bit then enjoy exploring Austin without just stowing our luggage.

Amazing beautiful hotel with great location. I would recommend the upgraded room as it adds a bit more privacy and less hallway noise. Hotel close to 6th street, great restaurants, and the bat bridge. Concierge was a great resource for places to go and local food. Check in staff were friendly. DO pay attention to your bill on check out.... More

Great hotel. The staff go out of their way to make you feel welcome, and go the extra mile. There are small touches in the lobby such as fresh fruit infused water and cookies that really help make you feel at home. The location could not be beat, and everything was within walking distance.
