Staff repeatedly described as friendly, helpful and easy check-in; one report of an unsecured room on arrival but overall strong service sentiment.

Consistently praised as an excellent, central location (close to nightlife, restaurants, walkable attractions); noted that being on East 6th brings nighttime noise for some.

I preferred the other Sentral one block down but they don’t allow short stays. The staff was helpful to get checked in a
Pros:

Love the location. It was quiet for sleeping which was surprising since it’s a busy area at nighttime. Had opportunity for parking walking distance to small grocery store and drink/eat locations.

Cons:

Bedroom needed a TV. TOO TIRED TO SIT on couch at end of day. I prefer to shower, bed and then relax with a little TV. We had to plunge the toilet several times. The bedroom was small and had to climb in From one side

Good for short stay
Pros:

The studio flat is a good size for up to two people, with a large fridge and a reasonably well-equipped kitchen for cooking.
The location worked well for me, as it felt like a safer part of 6th Street and was close to my conference venue. It’s also conveniently located near the Capitol and other central areas.
I interacted with three staff members. One was very helpful, while the others seemed fairly indifferent.
The room had plenty of hangers and space to hang and iron clothes.

Cons:

The bed was too soft for my liking. I prefer a firmer mattress, and I constantly felt like I was sinking towards the middle.
The cleanliness could also have been better. I’m admittedly very particular about cleanliness, but the floor didn’t seem to have been mopped thoroughly, my white socks turned brown after just five minutes.
The shower gel hadn’t been topped up either, so after the first day I used the shampoo instead. This was a minor inconvenience.

Nice, but will be trying a new place next time.
Pros:

Location and the coffee/latte all-in-one machine in the lobby.

Cons:

1) Tablet/ipad for late check-in didn't work. Fortunately a staff member showed up and directly gave us room keys.
2) Pool was in another building and wasn't as easily accessible as it appeared. It requires getting special key card from staff and then walking half a block down a public street.
3) Room service costs $150. I understand not doing it daily for longer stays, but we requested it on our 3rd day to then find out it was an additional charge.

Home to Home Stay
Pros:

Home to home facilities, apartment consisted of kitchen, ironing facilities, TV etc. Secure hotel with staff available on ground floor at all times. Free tea and coffee facilities and gym on ground floor too.

Cons:

To reach downtown need an uber or need to get bus. Actual street is very active with local shops, bars, food restaurants etc.

Great location and good vibes
Pros:

I love the location and I love east Austin. I really like how this hotel is like an apartment building so it feels more like an apartment rental than a hotel. I loved the 2 bedroom we had. very nice.

Cons:

Elevator is a bit slow and theres only 1.

Perfect for a couple to stay at and have a place to stay!
Pros:

I liked that it was quiet and clean. The staff was friendly & helpful. Everything was close by for us to just walk.

Cons:

I wish the outlets beside the bed on the nightstand with the lamps on them worked. We tried to plug our phone chargers in and the outlets didn’t work unfortunately.
