SW Austin stay

It was okay, the best part is the location on the southwest side of the area. The rooms are well worn and are ready to be redone, but okay for a short stay.

SHEETS WERE YELLOW?

So, I reserved a 2 bed non smoking room on Orbitz, but when I got there I was put in a 1 bed smoking room. Really bad for my allergies!! They changed it, but with a $11 charge.=( No free internet, you have to pay. Air conditioner was broken, room stunk weird, and the sheets were yellow (supposed to be white).Sheets were also itchy and carpet really dirty. On the good side....It was located in a convenient location. ; )

Needs MUCH Improvement!!!!

The place all around had a smoky smell to it like every room was smoking. i had requested a non smoking 2 bed room. when i arrived all they had for me was a smoking 2 bed or a non smoking 1 bed. the location wasn't that easy to get to. Not my favorite hotel stay needs more ventilation or something to get the smell out.

Exhausting stay!

My son was a participant in the Austing Marathon and then we did some sightseeing while in town. GPS did not recognize this location. It was extremely difficult to get to this hotel even after we figured it out. Extended Hotel inc. must have gotten this land cheap! Rooms sizes are fine. However the mattresses were terrible, cabinets were falling off hinges, and did not like to have to go downstairs to get clean linens all the time. The clerks at the desk were very friendly. I did not like the idea that we had to take a smoking room. I had to open windows all day while we were gone and use Febreeze. This room stunk terribly.

Not woeth it

The same old story with Extended stay hotels. They are not worth the money, even though they are perceived to be of value. The same old mucky rooms with everything old and wore down.

You get what you pay for

My friends and I were just in for the night and needed an inexpensive place to stay and that was it! I was cheap and accomodating but the beds were stiff as a board. I sleep in a ultra plush expensive bed so I knew it would not compare. But if you need a clean place to stay and try to save a little money this is your place
