The stay was nice but not fantastic. The staff that checked me in were very friendly. The room was cozy and clean, but I found myself missing traditional amenities like a coffee machine and iron. The mini fridge was barely large enough to hold leftovers and since mine was not working properly I ended up having to toss the food anyway. The technology (ipad controls) were cool but finicky. I disliked needing to find and turn on the iPad for simple tasks like turning on the lights and adjusting the tv volume. I also found that rooms did not block out much noise. I was woken up a couple times by housekeepers conversations and other guests entering/exiting rooms. The one time I ordered from the hotel restaurant my fries were undercooked and I was given the incorrect drink order. Overall, the stay was okay. I will likely go with a traditional hotel next time.

first of all there is no pull up to check in. I had to circle the block a couple times, find parking and drag my stuff down the elevator, down the street, up to the second floor to check in. It is a boutique hotel, popular in Austin. Room is very small, not a problem since I was by myself. But bed is placed lengthways up against the window. If I was with the wife, one of us would have to climb over the other to get out to bed. tv, curtains, lights all controlled by an iPad. boutiquey (cute I guess) but Im lazy. just give me a switch or remote. Breakfast was $22, expected. Overall stay was ok, but at $200/night not first class

It's an interesting concept. Very small rooms, good for solo travelers. The rooms are too small for couples with luggage. Under-bed storage, but there isn't enough space to open up more than one or two bags at a time. No hand towels available. It's just a place to sleep, treat it as such. Friendly staff! Safe area, walkable everywhere. They'll tag your bags day of arrival or departure if you need to. Don't buy the breakfast in advance. Good spot, very comfortable beds, excellent option for those traveling lean.
