Pricey, but you get what you pay for. Amazing stay, comfortable atmosphere and always a small walking distance from a good place to grab a bite to eat. If I ever find myself in the city of Austin again, you best believe my stay is going to be at the Austin Proper.

Great food options and cool room. The pool was a bit small and always full, it looked like a motel pool. We payed for late check out which is a bit pricey and they interrupted us twice. Fortunately they refunded half of the fee when we told management.
