Room was stunning. Loved the hotel decor. Everything was super clean and I loved the stocked fridge with drinks and snacks. The only downsides were valet parking only option and the front desk staff that checked us in was not friendly. Otherwise great hotel

JW Marriott Austin
Great hotel. It's like a small resort on a city block in downtown Austin. From the rooftop pool, to the extensive choices for dining, to the spa, you could spend a week here and almost never leave. Will definitely return.
