We did not enjoy anything about our stay. The website is deceiving. The property may have been nice at one time, but it has not been maintained. Getting information from the front desk clerk was like pulling teeth. The bathroom was dirty and everything was worn out. The heater did not work, missing lightbulbs. We read about having an expanded continental breakfast, but there were no eggs or breakfast meat. Nothing was offered that was fresh. Items were not well stocked.

Stayed three nights in the only handicapped offering. It had a tub shower and my wife fell trying to navigate tub exit. Shower head unreachable and fell. Room lighting all very dim,. No table lamp on desk. No side stand by one side of the bed. Reclining chair inoperable. Breakfast bar very adequate. Front desk personnel poorly informed and did not kmow room rates. Complex apparently purchased and managed recently by foreign family. Maid service barely adequate. Expensive, but lowest price in the area. Drive entrance on very busy highway and hard to find or see. Dangerous traffic, Will not stay there again.

Hi Ron We are family owned and family operated, we are proud to be part of the west Austin hill country community, this is a lodge, the scheme is different than regular hotel, but we do daily housekeeping following hotel industry common practice, our room rates is published online and in our check in system, when you asked our front desk for special rate with the local hospital, you were informed that you would be charged the same rate on your reservation, because we don't have special rate agreement with hospital. Sorry to hear that our lodge didn't meet your expectation. Bing Ma Owner

We had a wonderful stay at the Mountain Start Lodge. The rooms are modern and beautiful. Our room was spacious and the added plus was the private balcony! There is a simple continental breakfast with fruit, cereal, yogurt, waffle maker and juices.

Staff are Asian so there was a bit of a language barrier, but they were friendly and the property was kept in good condition and shape. Very nice area to stay when visiting Austin and the surrounding area.
