Guests say
Guests have praised the hotel for its fantastic location, which is convenient for exploring the vibrant surroundings of Austin, and many appreciated the high level of service provided by the staff. The hotel's modern design and amenities such as on-site restaurants and a pool added to the positive experience. However, several guests expressed frustration with additional undisclosed fees and raised concerns about the cleanliness of the pool, which detracted from an otherwise enjoyable stay.

Pros (+) This hotel has an amazing design esthetic and uses high end finishes and products on the property and in the hotel rooms. The beds and linens were so incredibly comfortable I would have been happy hanging out in the room than braving the heat of a summer day in Austin. The valet was great and very easy to use. When were ready to pick up our car we would just send a text and the car would be ready ...
Cons (-) I had a great time and was very happy with our stay.

Pros (+) They were supernice to my 4 year old daughter. They upgraded us to a suite because she wanted to take a bath in a bathtub and actually went to a store nearby to get her bubblebath shampoo without us requesting it: Speechless.
