Beautiful space! The room and property. The front room to the road is very loud. I tried to shower twice during our stay and there was no hot water. Like not even 2 minutes worth. That was disappointing. The location is great

Room was spotless. Staff was courteous. What stood out- the grounds are gorgeous. They left water in a cute carafe and nuts on coffee table after cleaning. What didn’t stand out- hot water in shower only lasted 2 minutes or so. But that’s okay, gave me enough time to wash my body.

The San Jose Hotel is in a convenient area of town, with free parking and stylish vintage decor. Staff are very welcoming, and the full bar with an outdoor poolside lounge is really nice for relaxing with a friend or group.There's also a cute outdoor coffee shop on the property, but I didn't have the opportunity to use it (closed the evening before Thanksgiving). Basic rooms are pretty small, but overall designed efficiently and fit the theme. Hotels with character are my preference over big corporate chains, and I'd stay here again when visiting Austin.

The staff were friendly and helpful overall. Liked the text line, which made interactions with the hotel very easy. Disappointing food compared to what the hotel used to have. In particular, the lack of coffee maker in the room and limited healthy food options was disappointing.
