Exceptional

Very nice hotel. Only minor grouse is the seating in our stylish room was uncomfortable to sit in. The couch was too firm, and the breakfast noon encouraged one to walk. Older guests like us need something a little softer. As far as locale, HEB being next door is nice, but everything else is a long walk or short drive. Parking is easier if you’re not in a truck 😂.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities
Accomodated pre-check in instructions. Friendly staff. Nice, clean rooms, well stocked kitchen area.
Best Hotel I’ve stayed at in a long time. It was elegant and intriguing. Definitely my top choice for Austin. Only wish there were more locations like this in other major US cities
