Renovating the other half so was only issue but will def stay again

I was waiting for Uber eats because there is no restaurant or bar at the hotel, at 11pm on 2/22 when 5 gunshots went off, so close that I moved closer to the building to shield myself. Half of the floor I was on was under construction but really just looked deserted like a scene from the movie, “The Shining” They canceled my reservation when my card didn’t go through, but never called me, I found the email when I was in flight to Texas.

No hot water; tepid at best. Group of pot smokers hanging out in the parking lot at night made it uncomfortable to leave the car. Staff laughed it off. Room layout was excellent, very comfortable.. but no hot water in shower. $6 snack/bfast decent.

Not good area, old building with bad maintenance and unresponsive front desk (when you found them)

Very clean . Confortable beds and the small living room is very enjoyable

I was extremely satisfied! The hosts were people who just were doing the best they can. Frankly I’m applaud at some of the reactions I see! Because sometimes people work hard and don’t have your unreasonable expectations.. shows your character not this businesses

Good area. Close to freeway.

Elevator needs a new look. TV remote not working. Internet slow. Room looks good and tired.

The hotel is in a poorly maintained area. the price was right, but the room had broken and non-functioning amenities. We asked for non-allergenic pillows - they didn't have any. The phone set was broken. The yard was poorly maintained. I would rate a 2-star at best.

It was nice, no complaints!

Room was clean and comfortable. Staff was friendly. Pool area was clean and nice

Everything was great except the cable on the TV. Half the channels didn’t come in and some had very bad reception or flashed color bars frequently

Check-in was a breeze and I was given two key cards for myself and my companion. The Pros: Our room was better than expected - two sinks outside the toilet/shower, mini fridge & coffee maker, full sized sofa as well as a desk. Also a closet with hangers, iron ironing board, extra blanket, and luggage table. This being a pet friendly was an added bonus. The beds - comfortable/supportive = I slept well. Key card access for security. The Cons: logging onto their free wifi was difficult the next day - might I suggest incorporating a password much like other hotels are doing. Blackout curtains please and thank you - they keep outside light out and keeps the A/C cool in. Overall it was a pleasant stay and I would probably come back.

Had such an amazing stay here. It was in a prime location right by the interstate which meant easy access to all kinds of destinations around Austin. It was very clean and the rooms were very nice. The staff at the front desk was amazing. Always friendly and accommodating. Housekeeping only came around every 3 days but dirty towels and trash could be left outside the door for them. Front desk was always happy to provide dental kits and clean towels. There was a security guard there every night patrolling which made me feel very safe. My only complaint would be that the TV signal seemed glitchy. It was seldom crystal clear and a little static most of the time. 10/10 for this hotel. I would definitely stay here again next time. it’s close to good restaurants, Target, gas stations. We didn’t have trouble finding anything we needed.

It was an ok place to stay on low budget. We were told the microwaves were first come first serve, and luggage trolley was never available for the whole weekend we stayed
