Wonderful hotel conveniently located near downtown and concert venues. I am a returning guest, and the staff was incredibly kind and quick. The rooms are great, and the beds are so comfortable. I was pleasantly surprised with the valet after a sub-par experience on our last visit. Will definitely be staying here again for our next Austin trip!

The building is a little old. It’s not physically pretty outside but inside its a beauty. The rooms aren’t as big as in the picture and they look a little older not everyone will have the view that is on Expedia, but we did get a pretty room with the capital view and the staff was exceptional.

The location is wonderful. The room was clean and the staff was great. The size of the room was impressive but not utilized. There was no safe in the room and we never could find an ice machine.
