Sonesta Simply Suites Austin The Domain Area
The reception area is small and less welcoming for the size of the hotel. The doors are not automatic. The air perfume used in general inside the property and inside the room are strong. I would consider a less stronger product

La Quinta Inn by Wyndham Austin Capitol / Downtown
Although the room was large enough with a comfortable easy chair, a lamp did not work, the lights over bathroom sink did not work, the toilet was running but stopped that myself, but the bathtub water continued to run due to the faucet not working.

Cambria Hotel Austin Downtown
Didn’t like all the noise at night because of the traffic. That would be the only reason we would hesitate to stay here again. However we loved the hotel and staff. The location was great for walking to restaurants and coffee cafes.
