Valet wasn't that familiar with hailing taxis.
The style and design of the hotel was very cool and modern. I loved the modern yet vintage feel of the hotel.
The see through showers were were a bit awkward. I think they could have done without the window right in front of the shower head.
The location and helpful staff
Loved the design and location
We loved this hotel. The location is unbeatable, within walking distance to everything. The staff was very kind and made us feel truly welcome. We were celebrating a birthday, and they placed a birthday card, some chocolates, and a bottle in the room. The hotel’s aesthetic and design are beautiful as well. There's also plenty of coffee shops, shops, restaurants in the area which is an always a plus. Parking was $45 a night -- which, given the location, we felt was fair.
Some furniture does look a little worn out, but nothing major.
Great locationSuper chic interiors
Pool was a mess. Chairs messy and lots of leaves. Not so nice to look at from balcony
The location
They never picked up my room service trays. I was on the same floor as the fitness center and someone was very loud at 6 am.
excellent location and great amenities - from pool to restaurants. the bunk rooms were great for a girls trip and bathroom was spacious for getting ready. the front desk was very accommodating to special requests.
the rooms were extremely dark. the HVAC didn’t circulate to the bunk room well so it got stuffy at night. showers with a partial glass shower wall are cold, provide no privacy, and make a huge mess.
The rooms were very comfortable. It was clean and peaceful. The staff were extremely responsive and helpful. They had a complementary gift waiting for us because it was our anniversary. Every request we made was honored. We were worried about noise because there was an NYE party on the first floor, but we heard nothing.
We were a little disappointed with the south congress vibe. It’s gotten very commercial. But that has nothing to do with the hotel.

It was a lovely priority and the staff were so kind attentive and friendly Location was so good and close to fabulous restaurants and shopping
The bed was amazing and so large but the pillows were too soft and did not suit us at all
The location is perfect ! The design of the hôtel is very nice
The humididty in the rooms
Incredible location. Overall chic interior.
The rooms felt a little rougher up with many scuffs, scrapes, and worn furniture.
Love the esthetic and location and size of the rooms.
Check in could be quicker
Great toiletries!
Rooms too dark - need better lighting. No coffee machine in room. Pillows very uncomfortable.

Excellent in every way! Right in the center of the south Congress neighborhood, which is vibrant with restaurants, boutiques bars, and easy access to other of the Chi Austin neighborhoods. The hotel is a bit larger than a boutique size but it's still retains the boutique sense of intimacy and luxury. The beds were incredibly comfortable to migrate the light. The staff was consistently helpful. A lovely pool deck. I would highly recommend this and plan to stay here anytime I'm going to Austin.
Everything good!
