DoubleTree by Hilton Austin - University Area

There was construction happening and the entrance was difficult to find. I was charged parking and there was not even a place in the parking lot to park. I had to park on the street. The check in service was rude. The location in proximity to the University is fantastic.

The hotel is very convenient to downtown. It's being renovated so part of the parking lot is closed off. We didn't know we'd have to pay $18/day to park here. There was no microwave in the room or freezer in the small fridge.

Remodeling as if 2/1/19. Room was clean and comfortable. Expect to pay for parking which to me is a rip off considering it’s nothing other than a regular hotel parking lot. Just another way to buckle and dime the customer. Don’t pay for the $11 breakfast because there’s a Denny’s 50 yards from the hotel door.

Doing renovations and no place to park except complete opposite end of the building with a VERY long walk around to the front entrance in the rain. Then they charge extra for parking. Nice hotel but pricy. Restaurant was closed while we were there because of renovations. The parking situation was the worst part. And the A/C rattled all night long which kept me awake.

There were unexpected renovations going on during my Jan 2019 stay. The hotel restaurant is closed and there is a small, temporary check-in/lobby area that is fairly small, and is located right by the bar, which makes the bar less appealing. Overall, though, the people were friendly. Traffic noise was a bit loud in my room as the hotel is right by the highway.
