Lovely place to stay. Right in the downtown area of Austin. It was close to everything. Very walkable town. We were able to walk to the Capital building, restaurants, bars, the Congress bridge and shopping. The hotel itself was clean, beds were comfortable and the complimentary breakfast was great. Each day someone was making pancakes, omelets.. plus bakery items from the bakery downstairs. The staff was incredibly friendly, attentive and helpful. Mon thru Friday they even had a happy hour with free wine and beer! Would absolutely stay there again.

Right in the heart of downtown, it’s an amazing location to get anywhere from. I loved coming back from a busy day to a clean room and the most comfortable bed. Also the breakfast is fantastic! Having a coffee shop on the first level too was very convenient. I’ll definitely stay here again next time I’m in Austin

Great stay. The only downside was the valet was so busy. Waited 15 minutes for our car, and they hadn’t even left with the keys to go get it - even asking twice about it—I kept getting told ‘it’s on its way’.
