Love the location, rooms are clean and no funky smells. We changed rooms because the mattress wasn’t comfortable in the first room but the staff was very accommodating and there was zero issues changing rooms. Wish the bathroom lighting was a tiny bit brighter. Pool was lovely. Food at hotel was tasty, drinks potent.

Had to move rooms because the AC couldn’t cool room. The second room wasn’t much better, as it never got below 72. Get better AC in the rooms, it’s Austin in July. Also, the rectangular toilets were super weird and hard to flush. The staff was lovely and did their best.
