"An amazing stay at the Frances Modern Inn. Highly encourage you checking them out. I travel nearly every week and often stay in the big brand properties - predicable, sometimes good, often average. This place has so much character, and the owner gave us a great run down of Austin when we arrived. Rooms are all unique, have balconies, and a great patio area right out your front door - with sodas, coffee, and comfortable coaches and seating available. Super spot to begin or end your day with a glass of wine. Neighborhood gives you easy walking access to PaperBoy, Franklins and so so many other great dining and shopping options. Rooms come with a fridge, cold water, and great bathrooms with nice tubs and showers. A gem of a place ! "
