The wall to wall window, cool lights, and remote control everything make up for the small spaces. The breakfast is always the best part. The citizenM has become my favorite downtown Austin stay.

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities
The room was very small & cold, no washcloths, no glasses to drink water, floor was not clean, leftover toothpaste in sink from previous guest, very small and had a very sterile feel, did not like using an iPad. No food service in evening unless you sit in the bar area - no thanks. Check-in was not welcoming as it was self-check-in. "Greeter" at check-in not friendly and just assumed that I knew the area and process. Overall, will never stay in this type of lodging again.

We were appalled at the size of the minuscule room —much smaller than the cruise ship cabin in which we’re now staying. Although the bed was comfortable, it was quite difficult to climb over my husband to get to my side of the bed (reminded us of camp bunkers at kid summer camp or highly-cramped train cabin). There was no coffee pot, no OPEN rooftop bar as advertised (even on a holiday weekend night)…. VERY DISAPPOINTED (and downright “weird) hotel. The attendant who told us how to check ourselves in was cordial, but we will NEVER stay there again & will DEFINITELY NOT recommend this property to others. What a joke!

Great location in Austin. The hotel is modern and comfortable. In spite of being a “pod” hotel so having relatively small rooms, the design of the rooms is really clever creating much more space that you would expect. Bathroom well designed with a sink in the room. Hanging and storage drawers were also excellent

The bed is hard as a rock! I’m not joking when I say I had to physically check to see if I had a mattress, like maybe something had happened and they forgot to put the mattress back on and just left a boxspring. Tried their lunch and the fries were not cooked all the way. Sadly, I cannot recommend this hotel but I will say the lobby decor is cool, however, they missed the mark on too many basics. Hopefully they will make necessary improvements.

This is a self-claimed 4-star hotel with 2.5-star amenities and service. The other reviewers have already commented on the ultra small rooms, but that is tolerable as I find my room to be functional enough for a single traveller. The computerized control worked well enough for me, and there was always friendly help at self check in/check out. However, when I checked in, there were no cups or glasses in the room. When I called the front desk to ask for them, I was told to go downstairs to the bar to get some for myself. Not what one would expect for anything more than a motel.

Tiny rooms, maybe I should've read the fine print better, but was shocked at the micro rooms. The property itself is nice, modern, clean, good service, excellent location if you want to be downtown, I just wasn't prepared for how small the rooms are. Bang for your buck it isn't bad, but 2 people in one of those rooms is pretty snug. Wish the listing would have mentioned that somewhere in the description.
