Nice area in East Austin just a few blocks from Franklin BBQ. Easy walk to 6th St, downtown or the river. Some fun independent shops nearby. Very nice lounge area with free coffee/tea/sparkling flavored waters. All in all felt like a home away from home!

Where to start - loved this little gem of a hotel. Check in was easy, room was clean, staff was friendly, and above all it was quiet.. even during a SXSW weekend. Maybe the best was the bed and luxurious bedding.. oh so nice! I would stay here again in a minute! Also, the restaurant on the first floor is first rate - walking distance to places like Paper Boy, Quickie Pickie (small grocery and good food), vintage bookstore and a few other neat places! If this is available, book it!
Cool, calm and collected color and decor!
Vie of the capital in the distance…

We stayed for 2 nights while in Austin, this hotel was one of the best parts of our trip! When arriving we were walked up to our room and given a tour of the amenities which was awesome and thoughtful. The upstairs patios were so cute, with some books and games. And the bed was fantastic, such a good night sleep. Overall we had a really nice time away in this special hotel that doesn’t feel like a chain hotel, but a welcoming destination.
