This was a nice place to stay while in Austin and half the price of hotels downtown. The rooms are remodeled with comfortable beds and are pretty clean. Also, the breakfast is comprehensive (pastries, cereals, eggs, sausage, waffles, yogurt, fruit, etc.). It's a little difficult getting to, but just pay attention and you should be fine. Short drive to anything... More

The staff at this hotel goes out of their way to be friendly and helpful. Our room was very clean and the bed was comfortable. We really appreciated the more than adequate lighting in the room. Most hotel rooms do not have enough lights or plugs, but this one does. The complimentary hot and cold breakfast was appreciated! The location... More

Out here on Business and the hotel was perfectly located to major freeways and food. Hotel room was clean and staff friendly. Also a good breakfast for this level of hotel (not a dig, typically what you would see at a Residence). Plus I received an email from management after my stay making sure I didn't have any issues.

Wonderful! Friendly staff, clean, comfortable rooms. I think it is outstanding that the GM, Chris, pays so much attention to the comments and responds. It surely is his leadership that inspires the staff to be outstanding. It is wonderful that he is so responsive and proactive! Looking forward to returning after the Paul McCartney concert!
