Placemakr Austin Downtown, Apartments by Hilton

10/10 Excellent

"This is a great place to stay and conveniently located. The staff are helpful and very friendly. I love how it was right by the river walk. I could go for a run every morning. It is a newer property. The room was clean and comfortable. It was nice to have a small kitchen and sitting area. For the price, I feel parking should be included and not extra."
