Cool place that feels a little bit like living on a space station. Staff were great. It’s secure, private, affordable. Great artwork and lots of things to look at in the lobby area!

The LINE Austin
Huge hotel but they managed to make you feel right at home. The only downside is that the pool is very cold, not heated as advertised. Pets stay free.
