Lovely place to stay. Right in the downtown area of Austin. It was close to everything. Very walkable town. We were able to walk to the Capital building, restaurants, bars, the Congress bridge and shopping. The hotel itself was clean, beds were comfortable and the complimentary breakfast was great. Each day someone was making pancakes, omelets.. plus bakery items from the bakery downstairs. The staff was incredibly friendly, attentive and helpful. Mon thru Friday they even had a happy hour with free wine and beer! Would absolutely stay there again.
