Never again

* I have to put the 7 digits code three times to get to my room and again when leaving. The touch pad is sensitive, have to enter the code more than once. FRUSTRATING. * Murphy bed uncomfortable l, pillow keeps falling from hole in the back to the floor. *to kinds of smells one in the lobby a different one in rooms. This constant smell of deodorant is nauseating and unhealthy. * I am a platinum member of hotels.com I asked to check out at 1, I was told I have to pay 50 dollars. I had to do my business meetings from the lobby.

Property is very well kept. One of the two elevators were not working so had to walk to the other side of the building to use the elevator. Pin to the door wasn’t working so get an old fashion metal key from the lobby. Besides that, great price for the property and enjoyed the apartment.

My recent stay at a hotel in downtown Austin was overall a very positive experience. The location couldn't have been more convenient. Being within easy walking distance of numerous shops and restaurants made exploring downtown a breeze. The staff were consistently friendly and helpful, and the check-in and check-out process was incredibly smooth thanks to the private code entry system. Having onsite parking available, while costing $35 per day, was a definite plus for those driving into the city. I also found the hotel to be reasonably priced for its prime downtown location. While the room itself was on the smaller side, it was well-equipped with enough amenities for a comfortable stay. The unexpected bonus of having a washer and dryer unit in the room was a fantastic and much-appreciated feature. The only significant drawback I encountered was the very low water pressure in the shower. This made showering a noticeably longer process than usual. Despite the issue with the water pressure, I would still highly recommend staying at this hotel for its fantastic location, friendly service, convenient parking, reasonable price, and thoughtful in-room amenities. It's a great option for anyone looking to experience the heart of downtown Austin.

All good except the code entry is annoying

The room was nice, clean, good location, and the were nice outdoor spaces. But the access via code entry was really annoying. There’s a 6 digit code that you have to enter every time you have to get through any door even the elevator back down to the lobby. It was excessive and super finicky. I even got stuck in the elevator at one point because when my code wasn’t working the door closed and it wouldn’t let me go back up or open the door to get out at lobby level, I didn’t have my phone and it at least let me get to the basement, luckily a cleaning staff member was able to let me back up.
