Hyatt House Austin/Downtown
"The room was a good size with kitchen. Water pressure was terrible. Went down to search for Kleenex and tp and staff said they’d send it up. Never came even after calling. 2 hrs later we found a maid in the hall. Location was just ok and staff not very friendly."

Hyatt Centric Congress Ave Austin
"It was good. Staff were extremely helpful. Pillows were a bit too soft for my liking. Blankets are limited to a comforter or throw blanket, which I had to blast the AC to not be sweating every night."

"The room had a "not so fresh" smell to it. Luckily, I brought febreeze with me. Unfortunately, I didn't get to have breakfast because it was only served from 7am-9am... most hotels serve breakfast until 10am. House keeping knocked on the door at 9am, even though check out time wasn't until 11am."
