1. The AC finally started working, it was May so it may have just been working too hard :) This hotel has a nice sports type bar, good Starbucks coffee and crazy cool furniture that looks like cow prints.

2. I'd stay at this hotel again simply for the location, but as most others wrote not a huge party hotel because on Friday and Saturday nights after around 10ish they do have a check-in for hotel guests so picking someone up at the bar and bringing them back is hard to do.

3. The bed was as hard as a rock and the bathroom was the worst part.

7. I live in Austin and it's pretty hard to come up with an excuse to stay in a hotel that is right off 6th St.

8. My thoughts while I was here were: this hotel seems to be trying really hard but there is something fundamentally wrong with how it's run.

"Not up to Omni standards and definitely not a 4-star hotel " Read full review on TripAdvisor 4/8/2011 Vote

9. I'll start with the good: they tried really hard for good service at the reception and bell station.

10. The toiletries in the bathroom were not replaced after the first night, power outlets on the desk were hard to locate (on the edge of the desk, black on black), the bath towels were thin and well worn, and the lobby seemed to be a hangout for locals using WiFi.
