Pricing was high. Room was comfortable but you need signage for housekeeping! On the first day, a man walked in on me saying the room showed as unoccupied, and on subsequent days there were loud knocks all down the hall with people yelling HOUSEKEEPING. Also, the sink drain was very slow to drain. I think somebody might have vomited in the sink previously.
The staff was really wonderful though

I did not like paying for parking $35 per night seemed excessive.
Our room had a stale odor and noises A/C unit
I am usually quite easy to please. The toilet was faulty it did not flush without re adjusting the flapper. The taps dripped
The odor was the main problem. Other than that the hotel was satisfactory

Great Stay
We stayed for two nights for a concert. We enjoyed our stay and was close to concert venue. We walked to our concert and felt safe walking there and back.

There was mold all over the bathroom ceiling, the water did not get hot in the shower, and the shower curtain rod was broken and the shower curtain wouldn’t stay closed.
We ended up leaving early and not even spending the night.

The whole reason for staying at this hotel, was so we could walk to the concert across the street at the Moody center. I figured it would be cheaper to stay at a more expensive hotel than to stay at a cheaper one and then have to Uber there. It wasn’t until I went to check in that they proceeded to tell me that parking was $40, but that “it’s ok, we’re still cheaper than the other nearby places.” It was too late to change or do anything considering the concert would be starting soon and you also can’t cancel your reservation. When I asked the clerk on the morning shift if anything could be done about the parking, her and the other male worker both said again that “it’s kind of an Austin thing.” Definitely will not be staying in another Hilton hotel, especially this one.
