"Nice property in a great location. Staff was very helpful and friendly. Inly concern was the pool was closed and did not know until we arrived."

Hotel Van Zandt

10/10 Excellent

"Nice hotel. Great amenities. Workout room is nice but gloomy due to no windows. The rooms are great, clean, comfortable. Staff at the hotel are so nice. Valet is slow. Tried to get my car at 8 AM and it took over 20 minutes. I had 2 cups of coffee just waiting for my car. The hotel is quiet. Off the beaten path. Rainey St. a block away. A solid hotel."

Hyatt House Austin/Downtown

"Everything was awesome :)"

Red Roof Inn PLUS+ Austin South – Airport.

10/10 Excellent

"The staff was super helpful and friendly, right from the start! The hotel is not the newest or fanciest, but everything was clean and well maintained in the room. Lights, remote, a/c, toilet, hot water all worked as it should. It would be a great upgrade to put USB charging ports in the light bases, in addition to the outlet ports. I really appreciate that the entire hotel is non-smoking! Would stay again!"
