I think the only frustrating thing was the hallway AC unit. I was one or two rooms away and it was making an odd humming noise. During the day you would not notice it, but at night you definitely could hear it. I spoke to a couple of the staff, one seemed surprised by it, the other already knew of this continual problem. They can say it's normal, but it was not normal to me. Why, because I've NEVER found that to be the case in a single other hotel. Not sure if it can be fixed, so it needs to be replaced! I put my airpods in the first night, the second night I slept deeper so it was ok. A light sleeper would have to move.

I REALLY liked the location. I meant to stay out of downtown and this is a cool pocket of the city. Very walk able area. The staff was very helpful and the room was decent and well styled for the price. As a rule I hate open showers because you get cold, but somehow I never got cold thankfully! I ate at the Otoko sushi/whiskey bar the first night and had breakfast in the hotel the next morning. Both were good.

The room was dark despite several low light lamps. Wish it had more light.

Great location for restaurants and shopping. Staff were very helpful.

More pillows and blankets in closet would be perfect!

Very “my style”, modern and cozy!

Parking is very high for guests. Mini bar had some expired items and we had a leak in our room ceiling. The filament lighting can leave the room quite dark.

The location is wonderful and the aesthetic is great. Once we arrived, we didn’t have to drive anywhere. Staff was consistently helpful and friendly. Enjoyed the variety of restaurants on site.

South Congress Hotel is pricey. You’re definitely paying for the location. A microwave in the room would’ve been nice.

Awesome location right smack in the middle of South Congress. Located near tons of restaurants, shops and bars. Simple, sleek, modern, clean design. Helpful staff.

AC went out for an hour one night. Was repaired quickly.

Coffee shop in courtyard was delish. Service was friendly. Beautiful decor. Hip events in the doest airs bar. Good, small pool for guests.

No direct step-out from our balcony to the pool (balcony was fenced in), even though the pool was our view!

Love that the hotel is right in the middle of modern & eclectic SoCo, amidst cafes, restaurants with yummy food, and boutiques! Even a modern/posh bodega called "Tiny Grocer"!

Street noise can be loud, there's literally a fire station less than a block away. The pool was closed - they said for maintenance

This hotel is in one of the best locations in Austin - walking distance to eclectic shops and incredible local restaurants along South Congress. The room was spacious, clean, and comfortable - with a large bathroom - but beginning to show some wear and tear. Bar, lounge, and lobby present a very cool design aesthetic. South Congrss Hotel is a chill place to hang (even if you don't stay there) with a very Austin vibe.

Absolutely nothing.

Love this hotels vibe!

Pool was unfortunately closed on the Saturday of our stay with only about 24 hours notice. There was an offer to use a pool at a different hotel, but that kind of defeats the purpose of booking a hotel with an on property pool.

Well designed property in a great location at the heart of the South Congress restaurant and shopping district. Rooms are trendy, comfortable and clean, although a bit dark.

Add more lights in the room, very dim.

Couldn’t allow me an extra 30 mins for checkout. Seriously?? Also, it’s very pricey for what you get overall.

They made my wife wait 45 minutes at 2 AM to get a room key as no one was at the front desk. Even though I told them she would be checking in at that time. This is a 2 star hotel at best. What a joke!

Not much after they made my wife wait 45 minutes at 2 AM to get a room key as no one was at the front desk. Even though I told them she would be checking in at that time.
