    Amazing stay at the hotel San Jose - highly recommend. Great location, great rooms, awesome courtyard and drinks. Love it. Will be back.

    Parking. Terrible stay. The refrigerator in our room made a loud, mechanical noise for about 20min at least 3-4 times through the night. It sounded like a lawn mower in our room, constantly waking us up, so we basically couldn’t sleep the whole night. It was an extremely unpleasant time and I would’ve switched hotels immediately if we were staying for longer than one night in Austin. As soon as I walked up to reception and said my room number, before I even voiced my complaint, the receptionist said “oh the loud refrigerator?” So clearly it’s a known issue, a common complaint that they don’t care to fix. It was 5am and he said just call in the morning and work something out with them. Also if your room is near the street you will hear loud noise playing late into the night — it was a Monday night when I stayed. Our bathroom windows face the parking lot and although they’re frosted, every car that parks and leaves shines headlights into the space. No curtains on any of the windows. The blinds facing the public courtyard/walkway do not feel private. I’ve stayed at cheap motels that at least provide curtains. The bathroom is bare bones. No water pressure and the shower temperature is either extremely hot or cold, no in between.
