My family and I typically choose Embassy Suites wherever we go, but this location was the worst we've experienced. We were charged $35 for an early check-in, even though our room was ready. Then, we had to move to another room because the air conditioning wasn’t functioning properly. The new room was below standard, with mold in the bathroom and worn-out carpets. There are many better options in Austin, and unfortunately, I will not be staying here again.

My son and I stayed here and both of us remarked that we did not hear noise through the door despite the large atrium in the center of the hotel. At the evening reception we would have liked to have seen an American bourbon as one of the complimentary options but there was a good Canadian option. The breakfast was delicious. The location of this hotel was good. All in all we were very satisfied

We needed govt per diem and there was no govt rate rooms available. Our option was to move 2 of our 3 people to a separate hotel which would have been very inconvenient given all the meetings we were attending together. The front desk supervisor, Chante, was able to work with hotel management and get two additional rooms at the government rate. We were so very appreciative, and she was so kind and understanding of our predicament. If I had the opportunity to hire Chante, I would in a heartbeat!! The whole stay was pleasant, the rooms nice and lovely staff.

Pool water is freezing and kids couldn't swim. Parking is not safe. Not worth the money.
