    great location
    inviting pool
    central amenities
    maintenance issues

    The location in South Congress offers a vibrant atmosphere, making nearby shops and eateries easily accessible. The pool area presents an inviting retreat, ideal for unwinding after a long day, though limited seating can be a concern during peak hours.

    The room maintenance left something to be desired. the wooden desk had noticeable chips and the leather top showed scoring and wear, which diminished the modern appeal. Additionally, the air conditioning unit in the hallway generated a persistent humming noise that became particularly bothersome at night. Despite the fun ambiance, room noise from the hotel's main areas was quite evident, which could rub some guests the wrong way. There’s also a lack of electrical outlets near the desk level, making it tricky for anyone needing to plug in devices while working or relaxing in their rooms.

    amazing rain shower
    relaxing terrace
    noisy hallway ac

    I had a great time staying here, especially enjoying breakfast at the on-site restaurant and the amazing rain shower in my room. The pool area was really relaxing with a nice terrace that made unwinding easy. The only minor issue was the hallway AC making a bit of noise at night, but it didn't ruin my experience. 😄

    Recommend it for solo travelers seeking a good time

    Great location for someone looking to unwind, and the staff was really helpful, especially when I arrived early and was able to use the lounge area. The pool? I spent at least some time there every day, it was refreshing to escape the Austin heat.

    It wasn't inexpensive, but still worth the cost.

    outstanding cleanliness
    limited amenities

    great location but could improve on amenities

    The location was ideally situated for exploring local attractions without needing a vehicle. The lounge area provided a comfortable space to wait, allowing for a relaxed start to my day.

    The amenities could not fully meet my expectations.

    great food

    perfect spot for exploring the vibrant south congress area

    I really loved being just a few steps from the famous greetings from austin mural and a short stroll to the umlauf sculpture garden, making my mornings full of art and beautiful views. the staff were super helpful and the food options nearby, especially the pastries at cafe no se, added to the delightful experience. as a solo traveler, i found the rooms clean and the pool area perfect for unwinding after a day of exploring, but the hallway AC unit was a bit noisy at night.

    great vibes
    awesome pastries
    cramped gym

    We loved hanging out at the pool and checking out all the shops in South Congress Shopping District. Don’t miss the pastries at No Se – they’re amazing! The vibe here was perfect for our group getaway, and the staff was super friendly.

    The gym was a bit disappointing. it felt cramped and lacked natural light, making it tough to get motivated for a workout.

    chill atmosphere
    helpful staff
    convenient location
    limited dining options

    Had a wonderful time exploring the South Congress area. The hotel has a chill, stylish vibe, and we loved being just steps away from funky shops and tasty eats. The staff were fantastic, making sure our stay was comfortable, especially with our baby in tow.

    In my wife’s opinion, it would be great to have more family-friendly dining options on-site.
