Pros:

The girl who was in the reception, unfortunately I never got her name, but she was amazing! Sooo friendly, cheerful and and happy to help with anything! We arrived during the evening at the 21st of June and we felt so welcomed right away!
The room and facilities, including the bar at the first floor were also great. Great view from the rooftop as well. Laundry room was good too. Close walk to the Capitol building, which I think you should see if you're in Austin because it's a really nice building. Also a close walk to the university, which is also where the RedCoach buses stop, so great if you are coming and/or going by bus which we were. A bit further down to the 6th street but doable, Uber and Lyft is not too expensive down there.

Cons:

All was good. I kind of wish we would have stayed here for the whole stay. We moved to a hotel on 6th street later which was good too especially location-wise but as a whole this hotel was the best stay.

This might be the worst Hilton I ever stated, since I am a member for many years.
Cons:

There was no soup (or liquid soup) provided at the bathroom sink. There was only a bottle of "lotion" but not "soup". I walked down to the front desk and told the staff. The staff promised that a housekeeper would come and provide the soup. However, there was no one attended this matter at all.
The room was barely acceptable. The pillow cases and bedsheet were not "new" or "clean". There were a lot of wrinkles as if someone slept on them. Any clean pillow cases or bedsheet should have clear folding lines but not wrinkles. The room did not smell "clean" at all.

Pros:

Staff was very helpful and friendly. Very clean

Cons:

We we told the room would be cleaned everyday. The first day to be cleaned, we told them to come clean it. The last day we stayed there they didn't clean it. I was disappointed that there was not pool or hot tub, or even a bathtub in our room. The view from our room was bad
