Our stay was amazing! One of the best Christmas Vacations we've had.
Pros:

The customer service was amazing! The manager on duty upgraded me & my wife to a bigger room and even helped us up to our room with our luggage! We did not expect this level of customer service! He was such a nice person! This was a second time at CitizenM and we are definitely fans! We are coming back for sure.

Cons:

I can't think of anything that I didn't like. It was amazing all around!

Incrível!
Pros:

Proximidade com todos os restaurantes, bares e atrações turísticas de downtown Austin. Recomendo pela equipe do rooftop e também pela Clem que nos recepcionou muito bem assim que chegamos.

Great location, but the rest left something to be desired
Pros:

Great location! We were able to walk everywhere from SoCo to UT's campus to nightlife. Luggage storage before/after check out was helpful. Easy check-in and check-out process. The blackout curtain was great and left the room super dark for sleeping.

Cons:

The basic room was VERY small (ultimately my fault for not paying closer attention to the photos before booking). The lights, temp, and TV were controlled with an ipad which we found more annoying than helpful. The bed and pillows were not comfortable (and I'm usually pretty low maintenance about that stuff). You can definitely hear street noise at night. The room was a bit dirty when you looked closely, nothing major, but needs a good deep clean. This is all minor stuff in the grand scheme of things, but we would stay elsewhere next time.

Great hotel in a fantastic location at a reasonable price. What more can you ask for?
Pros:

The hotel is very modern with an funky/eclectic decor. Personnaly I loved it. The room includes a tablet and is used to open and close the blinds as well as controlling the TV and lights. The bed was very comfortable.

The staff were very helpful and polite.

The location is fantastic. Close to 6th Street with and bars and Austin City Limits is within walking distance.

Cons:

Don't expect a large spacious room. The room is laid out with the bed built in under the window and the room is only as wide as the bed. Next is a small deck and chair. After that is the toilet and shower enclosure running along the wall and opposite them is a tiny sink and counter. All in all it is compact but functional. Breakfast was extra and ran $23.
