Staff courteous, clean rooms. Beautiful views of Texas Capitol. I wish they had more handouts/ flyers with activities to do in Austin and surroundings. Internet information is great on activities, however it lacked that certain places required a reservation (Pedernales falls or West Caves).

Rooms were cute but air conditioning is not very cold. It was very humid in our room on the 12th floor. I did not see anything about how much parking was, and it’s ridiculous. Also, a lot of the finishes are worn, paint is chipped and carpet looks dirty.
