I thought there were no good, affordable hotels in downtown Austin, especially this close to 6th Street and the highway. This was a great hotel, nice pool, outdoor bar, indoor bar, parking was easy and close and Deandrea helped me out with a free parking situation since I had to head to the airport at 3 am. Room was clean and modern, view of the city excellent, and lobby and hallways were secure, peaceful, and quiet.

Ended up at another hotel. At check in the room we paid for was not available. We were offered to remove some fees and remove the cost of the room we did not receive. That seemed ok. The staff at front desk and door were nice. Got to the room and the AC was making very loud screeching noises that was causing inner ear pain. It was cooling good though. But due to the painful noise we Had to turn ac off while We figured out what to do. Our phones got poor service in the building and there was also no internet available through the hotel. We called the front desk multiple times over a period of 30 minutes with no answer. So we had to make a decision to book elsewhere as the entire stay started off wrong. The floors were filthy and there was food behind the head board. Switching was the right decision. I would not choose the stay at this indigo location in the future.

Best customer service

We were in Austin to attend a concert and celebrate my daughter's 21st birthday. The front desk people were very welcoming and gave my daughter a coupon for a free drink. They were very helpful in navigating our destination. The rooms were great and they upgraded us to an accessible room without asking. I would definitely stay there again.
