We were placed at this hotel by a priceline bid. We were a bit leery after reading some of the reviews, but were pleasantly surprised. The hotel is somewhat isolated. There is no place to go and eat within walking distance in the immediate area. Downtown Austin is around 20-25 minutes if there is no traffic on the Texas 1 Loop Expressway. The expressway is easy to access from the hotel going towards Austin, but returning requires a bit of extra navigation. We found the lobby and hotel facilities to be well maintained and attractive and the staff friendly and helpful. We did not eat at the hotel. The room is comfortable and clean with a king sized bed. It is quiet. They provide free wireless internet access in the rooms and a business center where one can do things like print boarding passes. The room has a flat screen TV but the hotel system does not seem to supply high definition signals. The only criticism that I have is the bathroom. It needs updating. It looks like bad spots have been caulked over and what was below the caulk looks like it might be starting to show again. We had trouble with the toilet and it was fixed after two requests. The tub and sink do not drain very quickly. The spaces in the parking lot are also a little narrow and it can be hard to park. There is plenty of overflow space if the spaces around the building are full. I would stay here again as the facilities were very good and worth the money, but would prefer a hotel that is slightly less out of the way.
