Good stay, parking situation should be addressed.
Pros:

Location unbeatable.

Cons:

Staff was just OK. Not as friendly as Austin in general. Parking is $70/night. That's absurd. Tried to cancel my last night well ahead of time, but I was told it would cost $300 more for one night less.

Recommend this place to stay!
Pros:

I love the location and staff of the hotel. Very convenient and comfy. Staff were all friendly and kind! Would like to stay there again when I visit Austin!

Cons:

The toilet water pressure was a bit weak, and the fan noise a bit loud, but it was understandable.

Pros:

Zweckmäßige Unterbringung. Nichts besonderes aber auch nichts schlechtes.

Cons:

Weder bei Anreise noch Abreise war das Personal freundlich. Eher emotionslos und kalt. Willkommen sieht anders aus.

It was ok but I don’t know that I’d stay there again.
Pros:

Comfortable and clean.

Cons:

The parking was expensive and separate from the hotel bill. The breakfast menu that was advertised was not available instead it was a $22 buffet that was meh.

I would not recommend this hotel at all!
Pros:

The location is the only thing good about this property

Cons:

just not good experience
Pros:

The location was great, walking distance to convention center and nearby eating placess.

Cons:

The Check-in process was slow, only one staff all time.
Only one elevator was working for the during of my stay. Very slow to up and down via the elevator.
The room cleaning service was unaccetable. Just came in just changing towels, bathroom floor was not cleaned at all for the during of my stay.

Dirty… and could barely sleep due to no cooling air conditioning.
Pros:

Staff was great.

Cons:

There was blood on the bed sheets, and not from me. There was someone else’s hair all over it as well. The air conditioning did not work. The toilet barely flushed and got clogged on of the nights.

Pros:

It was comfortable

Cons:

My room door was left open after the cleaners had been in and when I raised this as a concern the staff disregarded this far too quickly
