Austin's hidden Gem
I love the Hotel Ella. Its history along with modern amenities is awesome! The room is clean and the bathroom is spotless. They hav an onsite restaurant and cute bar. The only negatuve is you are requred to pay $45 dollars per night for valet parking. However, the valet is always closed when I get to the hotel. I work nights and get back to hotel at midnight so I park in the small parking area at the hotel or across a very busy street. I think the valet parking should be optional.

Very dodgy hotel
This hotel is incredibly overpriced. There’s nothing in de room like tea maker or coffee machine, the view is a wooden fence or a brick wall right next to your window. And there’s a lot of hidden additional costs… You are forced to use valet parking (the valet guys are hunting for your car keys),you need to pay an additional amount “amenities costs” even when you were not been told or haven’t used them. The breakfast service isn’t constant. First day very good by a young lady but the next day it looked like the man just came from the club to the breakfast. Literally everything went wrong. Twice asking how I wanted my eggs. Than still have the wrong eggs. They were cold, they must have been in the kitchen voor long time. Than one of us finished the breakfast while the other one didn’t receive it yet. Tip for the hotel: Become less arrogant, facilitate your clients better, give them more value for the price they pay and come with a price without these dodgy additional costs. You are misleading the people.
