It started out so well! Great staff, good pool, tasty food. Then on our last night, my boyfriend and I came back from the bar and decided to have some drinks on the balcony. We were out there chatting away when all of a sudden, a strobe light starts flashing in the room. Stunned, we ran inside and heard a knock at the door. It was cops. Apparently, our conversation had been too loud for some of our neighbors. Instead of calling the phone in our room and asking us to quiet down, THE HOTEL CALLED THE COPS ON US. It was utterly baffling. And a gross overreaction. Who calls the cops to report a conversation?²

Great property and vibe but probably won’t stay there again/ did NOT like the room. Very small room, tiny bathroom- felt like a small studio- we prefer more space and privacy. A balcony would also be nice.

My favorite hotel in Austin

My favorite hotel! I really love everything about it—location, design, the rooms and convenience of everything, the soap, the staff, and more. It’s amazing, and I’ll come back every time :)

I used to love this hotel

I used to love this hotel; however, this experience wasn’t as great as previous ones. The staff was friendly but not very effective at solving issues. Breakfast was disappointing—Two Hands and Soho House are nearby, and we recommend going there instead. The guy at the pool was exceptional: attentive, efficient, and high-quality service. Housekeeping was also great—everything was very clean. However, the minibar was incomplete, and I was left waiting for hours for items I had to request at the front desk, which never arrived. My Hotels.com benefits weren’t honored, and overall, it was clear they were short-staffed.

We will definitely be back, the room was extremely clean, bed sheets had no smell compared to other hotels. We fell in love with this place. I will say the parking is very tricky, you will have three options, pay valet parking with hotel magdanela for $55, garage parking $70+ per day or street parking but you have to be lucky.

Cute Pool and Hotel

I really liked this hotel and would stay again for the location and the pool. The staff is very friendly. My hotel room window faced a back alley area where trash is stored and on Monday mornings at 6:30 am - you can hear the garbage trucks right out your window dumping the trash out. I mentioned this to the hotel and they called them "delivery trucks" which was off-putting. I saw the garbage trucks.
