I felt that there were many issues with this stay. Was not able to use the gym as it was out of service. Renovations happening and seemed like a very outdated older hotel. For the amount of money for this hotel breakfast wasn't even included. We stay at holiday inns all over the country and this is probably one of the lower end hotels we have stayed at.

Needs updating badly!!! Balcony had no chairs and view was of front of hotel roof, parking lot, low income housing, businesses and highway. Our room had ceiling cracks, stained furniture and uncomfortable mattress. Light switches had black grime but somehow the room seemed clean otherwise. I bought a container of disinfectant wipes though as I’m a bit of a germaphobe. Room safe broken and not repairable per staff. On the plus side, front desk people were very nice and you can walk to a variety of stores and restaurants. We were able to check in early. Pool is surrounded by trees so as another reviewer said it is filled with leaves. We saw maintenance guy clean it and 10 minutes later leaves were everywhere. We swam anyway because the water looked clear and temps in high 90’s. Pool surface is also deteriorated, pool towels the size of hand towels. Everywhere we looked there were ripped light shades, stained rugs, cracked ceilings etc. Breakfast buffet offerings weren’t bad but air conditioning was out the last 2 days in the dining area. They could use more staff there as they couldn’t keep up with cleaning tables and hostessing even though they really tried. Common areas look better than our room. I think function rooms are probably decent and the core business. F1 was in town when we were there so room prices were high and hotels were pretty booked so we took a chance as the location was not too far from where our family event was. Would not stay there again.

Wasn't the cleanest hotel. When we search, we always search for free breakfast, it has changed since we booked and the breakfast was a regular hotel breakfast and 12.95 a person. The pool was not well taken care of and the water was a dingy green color. The location was great but the hotel needs some work. Wouldn't stay here again

This is a decent place to stay if you need to be close to Austin Heart Hospital. Otherwise, PASS. First impression of this hotel was bad. Very limited parking near the entrance… with an only one row of tightly spaced parking spots in the front. The only space I found in the front was littered with trash/beer cans so I had to park in the very back of the property. The side/rear parking area is poorly lit. I did not find any key card entrances in the back. The adjacent property is a disheveled vacant lot with a “private property sign”. I was not comfortable walking from my car to the front door at night. It The lobby was nice. The staff person at check in was great. The bar area and common areas were inviting. Then I went upstairs and was disappointed again. The front cover of the ice machine was on the floor and the door to my room was ajar. An open door was a first for me and totally freaked me out, but I entered despite my reservations. The sleeping area is nice. It is outdated, but looked like clean with fairly standard hotel accommodations, but very dated….. popcorn ceilings. Then I checked the bathroom. All I can say is….. gross! The door had a huge badly patched hole and small holes on the inside from a doorstop. The robe hanger was broken. The tub had rust in it and a faucet that never stopped dripping. No tub/sink stoppers. Pieces from a bad ceiling patch fell into the tub while I was there and I noticed dark spots that looked like mold. No from me.

This is our 5th stay over the last few years at this hotel and 1st this year for a UT football game. It’s cricket season, but I expect them to stay outside. Unfortunately there were several in the room and under the bed chirping all night. I love camping trips, but for a couple hundred dollars a room night, I expect the hotel to keep the rooms pest free. The front desk person wrote it off as “it’s that time of the year.”Well there are still 3-4 UT home games this season, so I guess the hotel isn’t interested in repeat business anymore. With that attitude, I might as well book at a local campground 😬.

This hotel is old and dirty. There is mold around the counter in the bathroom. The carpet was filthy. The cleaners probably did the best that they could but there is just too much build up of dirty to really get it clean. The whole hotel smells musty including in the room. It's in a great location but I wouldn't stay here again.

The facility is showing its age. The room was comfortable, but... There is a balcony, how quaint. There may have been more scenic vistas when this was built, but the balcony serves no purpose now, except to stick your head out to check on your truck. It was especially blustery when I was there. The wind whipping around the corner had the glass sliding door howling like a haunted house. Next big remodel, I suggest pushing the room out to make it larger, utilizing the balcony for more practical space. And in this day of complimentary breakfast with the obligatory Texas shaped waffles, what's up with the fifteen buck Green Eggs & Ham. It was all very good, but it ain't the Sunday brunch at the Galvez.

The outside of the hotel looks very sketch. I was nervous of where to park my car. The girl at the front desk seems miserable. Our room had a missing chain lock, only the deadbolt on door and the door didn’t look secure at all. There’s no patio furniture, just an outdated slab, the tv signal lagged entire time. Beds were so hard. Hotel was so noisy. Best part was the sweetest staff at breakfast.

We were in town for UT orientation for 2 nights. The hotel was in a convenient location for us. It's an older property. We were on the 7th floor. Room was very clean, just a little dated. Cabinet with mini fridge dragged on the carpet because it was not leveled - just old. Beds were comfortable with plenty of pillows. AC was the problem. Never cooled down. Left early the next morning for campus. Called and asked that maintenance check the AC and if it couldn't be addressed to move us to another room. When we returned late afternoon, it was cooler. As the night wore on, however, it started to get a little warmer. The entire 7th floor was a lot warmer than the lobby area. Again, it's just an older hotel that needs to be updated. The price was right and the staff was friendly. Breakfast is a paid buffet, not included with room.

This property was affordable and offered free parking. It was also conveniently located with several dining options around, but I would not stay there again largely based on the staff. Besides Edith, the staff wasn't friendly or welcoming. If you asked a question, they seemed bothered to answer. Housekeeping came at random times to clean. If you were not up and out before 8am, you missed your cleaning for the day and had to keep dirty towels in your room. One day, they ran out of towels and we had to wait hours to receive. A housekeeper came to our door, banged, and then tossed our towels to us. No words, just literally tossed them to us. There was no hospitality whatsoever. Edith was attending the front desk when we checked out, and she was super friendly and thanked us for visiting the property and area. Too bad, she wasn't on staff throughout our entire stay.

Was not able to check in at 3pm because there were no rooms available as told by the front desk clerk. There were about 10 customers wait for rooms. Several had left and come back and there were still no rooms available despite having made reservations ahead of time. The clerk stated there was nothing he could do and management not available until Monday for escalation. He was supposedly blocking customers into rooms as they became available but no names were asked. I mentioned this when I returned to the counter to make sure my name was on that “list” and the clerk rolled his eyes at me in front of other customers. Which I did call him out when he did so. People have plans, which were now altered because there were no rooms available. Is it not the same expectation to have rooms available at check in time despite being full the day before? I was not able to cancel my reservation at the site since it was made thru Hotels.com. Fortunately I my kids and I were able to stay with my niece before heading back home the next day. Very disappointed in the way the clerk handled this situation

This is a very convenient and comfortable property. Breakfast buffet was basic but good, at least for me: protein yogurt, huevos con chorizo, fruit including strawberries, bread and breakfast pastries, coffee, milk, good raisin bran, bacon. The only negative was that the front desk was unmanned when we showed up around 7:15pm to check in and we had to wait 5 minutes for a clerk to show up.

I would have gone somewhere else but fortunately there was a nice restaurant within walking distance. The breakfast was okay. It was a buffet but not many options. Overall, it was an okay stay.
