The place was new and impeccably clean. The kitchen was awesome--the pans, utensils and gourmet coffee--everything was well arranged and perfect (except for ingredients--you have to go to a nearby grocery store). I was debating whether or not to stay a four star hotel in downtown. If you can figure out how to get by (taxi is typically needed to go to downtown) this is far better an option. I'd highly recommend this place to anyone who want to have a quality time in Austin.
