The hotel and staff were great - but the noise level was horrible. It is across from an outpost concert hall and next to a night club. Traveling for leisure might have been ok, but I was there on business and didn't realize that it would be so noisy.

The property was nice overall however not for us. Walking outside is full of homeless people and had a terrible smell, I know not the hotels fault but I wouldn't stay in that area again. Good restaurant options around, had a band playing at night which gave a good lively vibe. Staff weren't the best, no option but to valet park and forced to tip as per American standards. When removing suitcases from car there was no offer to help in anyway. Knowing that Im leaving my car in this persons hands made me feel like I should tip even though not deserved. When checking out we mentioned that we found personal items from the previous guests and there was no acknowledgement. Bedding was nice and comfortable.

The hotel itself is beautiful, clean, staff is very helpful and friendly, beds are very comfortable so overall it was great. But the neighboring bar Cheer Up Charlies played the loudest music Ive ever heard until they closed at 2am, so we did not sleep well until the middle of the night. If I were to book again I would try to get a room on the opposite side of the building at least.

Booked the hotel and it says Hotel Indigo but really its just a holiday inn express even has the signs lol. The hotel check in was great and all the staff was kind and helpful. Thanks to the bartender by the pool he was new there but super helpful for service and recommended some good stuff. Now the hotel condition and amenities. Hotel needs a makeover and get there ac vents cleaned as they were mouldy and noisy. Pool needs to be cleaned better. And the bench outside the front has people that just live there like its shift work. Hotel rooms need a major reno as well. Will be back to Austin but not be staying at holiday indigo for those prices.
