I stayed in this hotel for four nights. The front desk staff was very friendly and professional. The room itself is dated and the bathroom is very small. If you are looking for an upscale hotel this is not the place. I requested an area for peace and quiet and I never was disturbed by noise during my stay. The... More

I almost NEVER COMPLAIN when traveling. I almost NEVER BOTH THE FRONT DESK for anything. I've worked in hotels for over 10yrs and am very flexible and low-maintenance. This experience, however, is unique from all of my o ther travels. Our first room was large and bright, but the freeway sat rightoutside of the window - so close I could... More

First the bad: Internet access is free and in this case you get what you pay for. Their access kept dropping and on several nights could not even get onto the wireless, so used my air card and had no problem. The second bad thing is the bathrooms are definitely an after thought when they designed the hotel, so small... More

First off this hotel was in a good location and even though it only had one entrance it was clearly marked and not easy to miss. The room on arrival was clean, at a good temperature. The air condition system worked well. The restroom in the room was a bit crowded but it wasn't a big deal. Breakfast was great... More

The rooms were clean, comfortable, and generally quiet. The dining room served a nice breakfast buffet. We stayed during some local sporting event and Saturday night the traffic and noise in the area was unnerving. Otherwise a good experience.

This hotel is not really near the university. And it is a good distance from downtown. I booked it due to a nice priceline deal, so I can't complain too much. The hotel is well maintained and the staff were awesome (as is to be expected with a Marriott location). The area was a little iffy but not too bad,... More

Not a bad choice for short term business travel. Rooms were a bit dated and it's right off I-35 but overall a clean room with good amenities. Rates were a good deal for a busy convention week in Austin.

Courtyard offers clean, comfortable rooms in great location. The service was excellent. We left a valuable item in our room and were notified immediately. They even shipped the item to me. Would stay again, but be aware that the breakfast at this hotel is not free (very nice though!)

I hate to start with this but I was a little disappointed. I've been staying in all new Holiday Inn Express locations of late and I guess I've been spoiled. For roughly the same price, H.I. Express offers bigger, newer & nicer rooms and a large and plentiful continental breakfast (Courtyard's is $9.95). The room was clean and comfortable. The... More

Due to tightening budgets, I had to cast a larger net to find an affordable option, fearing I'd be giving up on quality. This was NOT the case with this Courtyard. This was the only hotel, out of many I called, that immediately did what they could to work with me. The Staff is what really made the difference. I... More
