Wonderful

I loved staying here everything was up to my expectations. The only downfall is it’s hard to find parking space. It would be awesome if there was assigned parking!
The property was very clean and secure. There was an issue with the code lock on the door not working but they gave us a physical key and key fob to get in and out of the room. It is right next to the highway so there is some noise if you’re not used to it. Otherwise I would highly recommend and stay there again.
TV did not work in the first room they put me in, and the second room was infested with cockroaches. I told them I didn’t want to stay another night (booked two nights) and asked both the management and Expedia for a refund on my second night. Management agreed to that but I have still not received it, and Expedia has stopped communicating with me. Terrible experience with both this hotel and Expedia.

Only complaint I had was that I had to message the property to get check-in instructions. When i filled out the pre-validation on the peacemaker website, I told them I would be arriving by noon, but I didnt receive my check-in code until after that time.
This property was great! My room could’ve been a bit cleaner, other than that, it was amazing. Bed was comfortable, staff were very helpful and attentive. I would definitely recommend this property.
Really great stay; however, there was a lack of communication on additional charges when we arrived for our stay. The charges are understandable and reasonable for the duration and quality of stay but the lack of communication of charges prior to check in was unappreciated. I would recommend the stay but have something prepared for additional fees.

Disliked: Cleanliness, room comfort
Although staff was nice once I found the office ( no email with check in instructions was sent), the location can be confusing as there was no property map or direction provided. Parking is also an extra $35/night but that wasn’t listed in any online information. Room is nice-ish, but not clean. Hair and debris is everywhere. The shower drain is clogged and with only two towels for two people, with no instructions on how to call housekeeping can be frustrating.

Cool 2-room "suite"
We really enjoyed our stay and will certainly choose the Placemakr again, the next time we're in Austin.

The location to the convention center was great. It was around the corner from the restaurant Moonshine that was amazing. My only critique is the laundry set up is confusing it could be better especially since to purchase a card for 1 time use was $10. And the roof top deck was pretty but the furniture could be cleaner and better kept. Overall this was a perfect hotel and I highly recommend it.
