The hotel offer stunning downtown views and unique capsule rooms with extra touches, but cleanliness was not up to par. The service was lacking in promptness and attention to guests but was overall courteous. The location is perfect for both convenience to Downtown Austin and a relaxing stay, but some issues with reimbursements were disappointing. The dining experience was good with some pricing concerns. Overall, the hotel provides a unique experience with notable drawbacks.

I absolutely loved my stay at this hotel! The rooms were incredibly luxurious, decorated with beautiful photographs of local streets and offering stunning views overlooking the river while enjoying a hot pot of coffee. However, the housekeeping missed making up my room for two days, possibly due to being busy with other tasks.

The facilities were generally good, but the $45 parking fee for one night seemed absurd. Additionally, the process to get reimbursed for a wine that was never taken was a bit cumbersome.

The dining options were of high quality but lacked some flavor. Overall, a great value for money experience!

This hotel is a mix of good and not-so-good aspects. The rooms were spacious and super comfortable, but cleanliness was an issue for me. The location is convenient, near all the good places Austin has to offer, but the pool area can get crowded and pose safety concerns. Dining options were quite disappointing, but the hotel staff were experienced and friendly.
