Where the property might be lacking in updates (older feeling decor, poor lighting in the bathrooms, etc) the staff more than made up. Everyone is super nice and helpful, giving great recommendations and always asking if they could make our stay better. Centrally located for quick Uber rides anywhere we wanted to go to see all Austin has to offer.
