citizenM Austin Downtown
Rooms are smaaaall, as economy cruise ship small. Beds are hard. No top sheets. No wash cloths in the room. I requested to change rooms… not possible. I requested to cancel my additional 2 nights and they had no problem with that. “Weird” approach to customer service

Holiday Inn Express & Suites Austin Downtown - University by IHG
Paint peeling off in the bathroom, the toilet seat is not securely attached to the toilet, the shower lever is half off the wall, the shower curtain was ripped off the hook, the shower temperature fluctuates. But the water pressure of the shower is great and the breakfast is great, too.
