Such a cute hotel! A little challenging getting ready in the morning as the vanity is just a sink without much space. Had a great breakfast there at the restaurant. Beds were comfortable and pretty quiet. Very charming!

Everyone was courteous but also not well trained. For a very seasoned traveler used to luxe accommodations and first class service- this isn’t the hotel to stay at, rather it’s a place to visit for the porch, common areas, bar and restaurant.

Disliked: Staff & service
The staff was not at all friendly or helpful. Rather than opening the door for me when my hands were full they walked away. The room was just ok. The bed pillows were overdue for replacement. They were flat and old. The room was clean. The door did not close easily. The location is great and close to downtown and north Austin but being close to campus also meant the nights were a little noisy.

The room was adequate, good size. There was no view other than the parking area for the apartments behind the hotel. Not a lot of good restaurants within a 10 minute walk. No close by shopping to speak of. Overall, our stay was fine, but a bit over priced.

Room was great—clean, comfortable, and attractive. However our main issue came from the valet protocol. Please advertise valet only and or mention options of parking on the street. If valet is only possible, include it in nightly fee. The current system is misleading and appears to simply be a cash grab
