Good Location

The service was excellent and the room comfortable. Seems to have been a little more pricey than some of the other hotels but most likely due to location, which is why we chose it. The location was great for the venue we were visiting. The restaurant on site was decent but really pricey as were the drinks.

Too Hot to Sleep

The room was way too hot to sleep comfortably. We could not get it to come on when we needed it. It was not a good nights sleep at all. The thermostat said 65 but that was an out right lie. It was more line 75/77 in that room. The air would kick on once an hour maybe 45 min so your constantly taking covers off putting covers on. Just too terribly hot in our room.

Austin Stay

Wonderful stay. Parking is expensive ($50). Construction in area causes delays. The only is lighting above sink is wrong making putting on makeup a challenge. This is a more open concept. A curtain between shower and bathroom would be nice. Great rooftop bar at adjoining hotel! Very close to arena and UT.
