    Good location for downtown - staff could not have been more helpful - Allan greeted us when we arrived and made us feel very well looked after. We stayed here the night before we were joining our family just outside Austin. It was ideal and also close to Austin visitor centre where we booked the “duck” tour from.

    Location is great, the hotel feels very clean and safe all over. The gym has a great view, is not the biggest, but well equipped. The pool with bar a nice add-on. My fav' was the great breakfast and the generous 'living room' breakfast / bar / cowork area that is great to start off your day, have a break, have a drink in the evening.
