Three night stay. We were impressed with the location. Close to the local fun zone and only a short walk to get downtown. Nice layout. Our room was a bit noisy due to being closest to the elevator and right next to the landing door which slammed every time someone went through. Also a bit of noise from above. We will come back again but will perhaps get one of the rooms with a pool balcony for fresh air.

A pleasant surprise! Friendly front-desk staff, clean and efficient room, and really close to a lot of downtown action. Nice walking paths not far away. The restaurant was great. Recommended!

Hotel for the hip and sheek ! They will work with u ! I got my hotel downgraded to get me out of a bind they got very good cabins ! The best way to maneuver the co- ed bathroom is to ask to have it cleaned before and after usage ! Great restaurant and bar I recommend they extend hrs to bar and restaurants! Eat at the skate board down the street burger place it’s the best !

I’ve been traveling for work a lot and the professionalism shown by each member of the staff is incomparable to anywhere else. This team will do anything within reason to make sure you’re a happy guest. Will be recommending this place for years to come

Cool lil' swanky spot on 6th street. The pool and seating areas were really nice and it is right by everything. The rooms are a bit small and the room we had didn't have a bathroom. They have community bathrooms which where really nice. I'm not a fan of community bathrooms but we got this last minute and it was a pleasant experience.

Price seemed too good to be true, and it was. Turns out the room we got was a bedroom only- shared bathrooms down the hall. I’m sure the booking website said “bathroom not included” or whatever, but I never thought I’d have to check for that when booking a “hotel.”Super loud music playing by the pool on Saturday. The windows were shaking.I called the front desk and asked them to turn the music down, they said, “I’m sorry, we can’t, somebody paid to rent the pool for a private event.” I paid to rent my hotel room, but I guess that didn’t matter.They ended up offering us a “free” upgrade to a full room with a bathroom included, but secretly charged me for it anyway.This hotel is cute and charming in some ways but the customer service is TERRIBLE and it’s not worth the risk of losing sleep and money.Do not book unless you don’t care about either.

I won a trip to Austin on a game show here in LA, and boy am I glad I was sent to the East Austin Hotel. Everything there is top notch: the room, the pool, the food, the service, everything! Noemi and Jessica in the restaurant were particularly awesome. There is so much to do walking distance of the hotel, there's no way you could get bored. 10/10

The worst hotel I’ve personally ever stayed at. The room had broken lights, no natural lighting and looked a bit like a dungeon. When I called concierge to let them know, there were no solutions made. The pool restaurant had messed up my order when we first arrived which I understand mistakes happen but the way it was handled was very rough. I was told by the front desk a manager would be reaching out but by the time I checked out, I still hadn’t heard from anyone. I got an email the day after I checked out offering a “free breakfast”…over 24hrs after I had left the hotel and went elsewhere. The hotel is cute for the pink aesthetics and good walking location to everything but don’t expect good customer service.

We’re literally already talking about coming back. Loved staying here. It’s fun and unique, and the bar is really fun and cool too. Tons of stuff to do within walking distance. I wasn’t expecting a lot because it was the lowest hotel price within a mile or two, but this will definitely be my number one choice when I come back to Austin regardless of price.

This is a REALLY cute Hotel. I do read before I book, so I was aware there were some rooms that share a bathroom and others that do not - so I could ask accordingly. They have a parking garage which really made me happy, I'm horrible with street parking and don't trust it. The lobby feels like a cute little shop and I even noted the cat food and water bowl outside. I appreciate taking care of ferals as I do so myself! The room was the first floor but had a high ceiling so it never felt too small. The view was . . . well, it was a stone wall but I didn't come for the view out of the Hotel anyway. I loved the open divider in the room to split from the bedroom to the shower, and that there were sandals offered and a robe. BEST OF ALL though? The bed was COMFORTABLE. Even the pillows. I have stayed in 4-Star's with beds that ruined my back and made me question why I paid what I paid. Not here. My ONLY gripe is the top blanket of the bedding which is a sort of semi-heavy "quilt". I prefer a pillowy comforter, this was a tad stiff and hard to move around under. But it didn't kill the visit for me.DO NOTE: There is music playing in the pool area until 11 PM. If you are trying to sleep BEFORE that better bring earplugs.

The hotel is close to Downtown and also in walking distance to great restaurants and bars. The hotel itself was very welcoming! Staff was awesome… front desk, housekeepers, food and beverage staff, engineers. Thanks Maria for keeping our room tidy and stocked fresh towels. Food and drinks are amazing! Second bar and kitchen we love…. thanks to the chefs behind the scenes your food was always impressive. Shout out to Becca for great leadership and management skills, also Ben great bartender very attentive and good conversation. Two other bartenders that were also great sorry can’t remember names girl with the cool glasses and Emily/Skyler? There were so many other employees names I would like to mention but every employee we came in contact with was pleasant and helpful. Thank you for a memorable and pleasant stay. I would definitely return.
