"Cleaning was insufficient, with hairs and bugs. Apartment smells of strong mold from HVAC. The HVAC is situated directly across from the headboard so air blows in your face all night and the mold makes you congested by morning. The furnishings and pillows are uncomfortable. I was overrun my roaches, gnats, and fleas. By the time I got home, my clothes reaked of mold and fleas were crawling on me. My wife wouldn't let me in the house. The maintenance and attention to detail is substandard; loose...

Top North Central Austin Hotel Reviews

Courtyard by Marriott Austin Downtown/Convention Center

10/10 Excellent

"Awesome people up front. Got free water from them."

Fairmont Austin

8/10 Good

"Please note you will need to pay for overnight parking even if you stay at the hotel, which is $55 per night. We got a room with a nice view, but had a door connected to another room, and we could hear everything, which was a bit annoying. Outdoor pool is okay, nothing out of the ordinary. Breakfast was good, Dinner okay."

Orangewood Inn & Suites Midtown

10/10 Excellent

"Decent place given the price. I came during an unfortunate time where there was a lot of road construction, but it was convenient enough to be outside of the downtown area but close enough to not worry about high uber/taxi prices. Recommended if you’re just there to sleep and shower, I spent most of the time in the downtown area"
