Here is what disappointed me about the Austin Hilton: Small room, dowdy furniture (more like a Holiday Inn along the highway), small bathroom, extra fee for internet service in the room, very small space in hotel lobby to access free wireless internet service, fee for using exercise room (although, I admit, I didn't have to pay because I am a member of Hilton Honors with silver status). For the price I paid, the value was just not there. To be fair, not all was bad. The mattress was very comfortable and the room was kept clean. I also did not hear much hallway noise. There is a very nice cafe in the lobby (Starbucks type, but not a Starbucks although the coffee is Starbucks) with a very nice atmosphere. The location is fine for downtown business travelers, or, if you are so inclined to want to go to a lot of bars on 6th St. I guess my biggest gripe is the value for the money. This was a very busy hotel when I was there the first week of May so I guess they can get whatever price they want since they didn't seem to be hurting for business, but I would not stay there again.
