Was in town for dance competition. Had made reservations at the Embassy Suites for 2 night but only needed one. Embassy would not adjust my reservation nor would they give me the same rate as my original reservation so I chose to try The Austin again. My stay last year was not enjoyable so I had some concern about stay... More

Shower curtain was also dirty. At least new pics. were on the wall now and new carpet & bedding and... More

I stayed at this hotel during a business meeting at the convention center. The rooms were clean and very comfortable. They didn't offer a complimentary breakfast, but it was right next to the convention center which was a plus

Only seen the staff upon check in. They want it to appear to be an upscale hotel. It's not. Room was filthy. Carpet, chairs, bathroom floor, trim...... I moved the nightstand forward to look for a wall plug.....mistake! It appears this room hasn't been properly cleaned since the early 60's! Beyond gross! (And I'm not a neat freak.....it's just that... More

Our convention stay was very enjoyable even though the hotel was under repairs from recent storm damage. All the staff we came in contact with were extremely friendly and helpful. Were working their legs off, especially those who helped out in the convention hall! Rooms were very clean and comfortable beds. Great pool, liked how had a outdoor and indoor... More

Overall average experience, aging hotel but overall clean and service was competent. Double beds were on the small side and short, I couldn't imagine a tall person sleeping on them. Easy walking distance to springs, bath houses, all historic and downtown attractions.

I had my wedding reception and my wedding night suite booked here in November. The service was extremely friendly and I felt so welcomed. My reception was better than I could have ever dreamed and our suite was just beautiful! The manager and staff of the hotel went above and beyond to make my night one I would always remember....
