great spot, friendly staff
I was there to visit the graduate school at UT. The location was great. It's a nice walk by the capitol building to the campus. There's a great tex-mex place 2 blocks down the hill (suggested to me by the hotel staff). The room I found to be clean enough. I wouldn't do pushups (or lay at all) on the floor without a towel. But for the price, and the location, I was fully satisfied with the room.

Great Location
This was a nice hotel in a great location. You get what you pay for but its worth it for a close place to crash at the end of a long day. The staff was nice and the valets were courteous and cool. If you don't mind walking, this is a great place to stay.

Good value for your money
The location of La Quinta Inn Austin Capitol is definately a plus. It is close to University of Texas Campus, Brackenridge hospital and ofcourse the famous 6th Ave in downtown area. The rooms have fresh painted walls, the rug was ok and the bathroom clean. The only drawback is the front desk help who seem uninterested on anything outside the hotel - Locations of the nearest eateries, bus schedules etc.

No complaints- Great Stay!
The hotel is located in the downtown, very close to the Capitol. Plus, its one of the cheapest option you can get (with the best value you can get) at a convenient location. I am extremely satisfied with the room cleanliness and comfort. Staff were very helpful. Particularly, a lady named Sylvia who sits at the front desk. I definitely recommend La Quinta!

Not Applicable
Almost all restaurants in the downtown are closed on Sundays. Atleast that's what I found during the day. the only option available was a Subway. So, plan accordingly.
