Amy Mar 29, 2026 06:24:50 AM

Summary: The first night was lovely. The second night was a nightmare. There was a wedding that kept me up half the night. When I called the desk, they initially apologized for the “raucous” party happening in the courtyard below me. They promised they would cut off the music by 10:00, then 10:30, then 11:00, and finally around 11:30 they said they were doing the “send-off” which apparently included sparklers. So I was lying in bed listening to 1) fights between guests and 2) guests expressing concerns about SETTING THE TREES ON FIRE WITH THE SPARKLERS. So, please don’t believe that the rooms are soundproofed as it says on the website.

Summary: It was great and the Monroe suite is amazing

vanessa Mar 24, 2026 01:47:27 AM

Meghan Mar 21, 2026 03:32:22 AM

Summary: The grounds are nice, but the rooms lack some basic bathroom amentities (i.e., q-tips, shower caps etc) and a true closet. The rooms are also not business-friendly. My internet went out during multiple calls, and there were only two useful outlets (one under the desk where the TV is, and one next to the bed) and no USB / USB-C ports. Didn't have a chance to use the gym or pool. Drip coffee served downstairs in the morning.

Summary: Room was clean and this was my husbands first stay here and I wanted him to love it. Unfortunately, we had no hot water on our first day-the coldest day Austin had seen-high of 55, with windchill at 36! We called the front Office, they sent an engineer and 30 minutes, replaced shower head?!?!? Obviously, that didn’t help. It was still freezing. The told us the next day they’d be moving us to a new room with hot water. The room was very nice and we did have hot water but we were only there 2 nights. So, it was a bummer. When we wanted to order room service, it was closed! Closed by 8 pm-and I had raved to my husband about the deviled eggs! So, needless to say, it wasn’t the great jaunt I thought it be.

Summary: Clean room. Property is starting to show some wear. Excessive deposit on the room, especially for not having a vehicle in valet. We love staying here. Restaurants and coffee shop are all great. The vibe is coo and location is perfect.

Jaslyn Mar 3, 2026 12:08:57 PM

Summary: Shower had a clear window to the room. No blackout curtains. Water took a long time to get hot. Nightstand lamp constantly flickered like a strobe light. Women’s public restroom in lobby didn’t lock. Location was perfect.
