Hidden fees just keep piling on!!!!

There is ZERO parking availability and they require you to valet. Valet charges $69, but when you electronically pay the bill as they instruct, it charges $79. I was charged a complete fee from the hotel AFTER already being charged from hotels.com. They said they would get someone to reverse the charge and that person never made any call while we were there. So now I’m forced to contact my bank on Monday morning to see what can be done. This hotel completely ruined my overnight vacation!

It’s time to update this property. I was hit for more than $400 for the room during South x Southwest. The first room had no heat. The manager came and assigned me a second room and turned the heat to 89. Naturally this room turned into the desert. I took a shower and the shower head had a defective seal and water flooded the bathroom. I absolutely would have left if it wasn’t midnight when this all happened.

Great until the last day.... because of Marathon.

Very nice hotel. We arrived February 14th and were greeted with Chocolate covered strawberries. We were attending a family wedding downtown. Close by to every place we needed to go. But...we didn't realize that same weekend (Sunday, check-out day) there was a Marathon going on. I wish check out staff had warned us before we left the hotel. Road blocks everywhere. It took us 2 1/2 hours to get out into the Interstate. It is ridiculous how many road blocks we encountered. Marathon Hosts need to figure out a better plan for these runners. They aren't the only ones contributing to the Austin economy.

Flushed toilet and ended up not flushing and just overfilling. Called maintenance and they “fixed it” they claim. Come later at night time just to flush it again and it flooded the hotel room leading to the vanity and getting on carpet of room. Inconvenience was I had a bunch of stuff and had to more rooms because they couldn’t find one on the same floor so I had to re pack and move this all at 10p on Valentine’s Day. It was just such an inconvenience and for them to not check their work at the time they had fixed it. Could’ve all been prevented by Hilton
