    I guess due to the area (proximity to concert venue), the price of the hotel and the parking was high. $50 to park yourself, the spaces are tiny so your car is bound to get dinged. And the entire garage smelled like sewage. Valet was $55 and a very long wait to get your car. Lines to check in were also very long. I wouldnt book here again. All in all, we spent a little over $400 for one night.

    Great Whiskey Bar downstairs and you can get a cheeseburger at the stand outside which is part of the hotel and bring it in and have it with your old fashioned. Rooms are well organized though not gigantic: just perfect when visiting all the sites in downtown Austin, 20 minutes from the airport by uber. Elegant, classy ,avant-garde Boutique hotel. Good breakfast in restaurant. You pay but also I think we chose an option and got a discount from Expedia on breakfast as well. But definitely not included in the automatic price of the hotel.

Waited in line at that hotel and the person at the front desk informed us we had to go to the second floor to check in in the most confusing and unnecessarily complicated way possible.

    Location and staff friendliness. Over $400 for a Thursday night stay, including a $50 charge for self-parking. We requested a “campus-view” room but did not receive one, despite the fact that the hotel was not nearly full. The bathroom area was essentially a corner of the room rather than a separate room.

We left an hour past the original check out time and had already made it back to Houston where we live, but according to the hotel I was still there at 2?? And I was charged for no reason whatsoever:

Also, the water in the rooms wasn’t cold — finding cold water was quite difficult.

    Booked a quick weekend trip in to Austin to help our daughter set up her apartment while attending UT. We had stayed next door at The Otis before but this was our first stay at AC and we loved it! It was a bit quieter than Otis, conveniently located, and the accommodations were great. Small but very comfortable room, great check in process, and the housekeeping was outstanding. Also, had a great breakfast at Acre 41 with phenomenal service by Riley and team. Overall a great stay!!!

    The staff was friendly, helpful, and welcoming. Place was clean and modern looking just like the photos. There was no microwave in the hotel room, parking had to be paid and not included with the hotel. The listing was false advertised, showing photos of the pool access and rooftop area that was to be included with the AC hotel and not indicating that was for that Otis hotel part of the property. Unfortunately, probably won’t stay again there.

There was not a microwave in the room. It would have been helpful to have atleast 2 towel hooks in the bathroom and a 2nd mirror in the room so more than 1 person can get ready trying to share 1 in a tiny bathroom. There should also be a fan in the bathroom. These items are common in other hotels I've stayed in

    Next, I paid for breakfast in advance but was told that we only would receive breakfast the first day because we didn't get breakfast on the day we check out. I've traveled all over the world and have never stayed at a hotel with this policy. Also, the prices for the restaurants online were not the same as on the menus in the venues. We heard other guests complaining about this, too. Some of the wine, for example was twice the cost during happy hour as was stated on the menus. We didn't complain while we were there (except about the charging stations) because the staff was absolutely lovely, and these things are clearly above their pay grades. But, lesson learned. Won't stay here again,

    The hotel is pretty however i did not anticipate having to pay $50 a night for parking and the bathroom is an open concept so zero privacy. Only thing you get is a sliding door for the toilet but the shower can be seen by anyone in the room unless you are on the bed staring directly ahead. Was fine for my husband and I but someone coming with a friend may not appreciate have zero chance for privacy.

    The room was way too hot to sleep comfortably. We could not get it to come on when we needed it. It was not a good nights sleep at all. The thermostat said 65 but that was an out right lie. It was more line 75/77 in that room. The air would kick on once an hour maybe 45 min so your constantly taking covers off putting covers on. Just too terribly hot in our room.

    Location Coffee pot was located where there was no electric outlet as well as the iron and ironing board. There was no hand soap at the sink or anywhere to be found. Lousy view of the top of the gross building below us and was woken up about 4:00 am to a popping sound that I assume was trash trucks dumping dumpsters. I was charged more on my debit card than the invoice and will be investigating that issue. For a $340.00 charge, I have stayed in better hotels for less. So disappointed!
