La Quinta Inn Austin Capitol - Austin

Was awaken at 2:15 in the morning with pounding that actually shook the room and happened every 15 minutes for an hour. Found hair on the bath towels when I arrived in the room and when the room was "cleaned" the next morning the lady gathered the towels, replace with new ones and left. Elevators did not work on the morning of check out for hours. Soda […] machine did not accept dollar bills and when the attendent helped me had to add extra money to the machine to get my soda. Will have to say that the front desk staff was very helpful and friendly, but would not recommend this hotel. Read more

Everything's good! Good location, good parking, good service, good people!

It was difficult getting from the valet parking to our room. Hotel corridors are quite narrow and were partially blocked by housekeeping carts. Traffic at the parking check-in was heavy due to a the arrival of a number of police cars (for a memorial event) and at least 50 motorcycles (motocycle club) apparently on tour. The motorcycles continued to […] roar well into the night and in the early morning as bikers arrived and departed. The bathroom had a considerable hole in the ceiling (repaired at least once) apparently from a leak in the bathroom above. The air conditioning unit rattled when cycling on. The complimentary breakfast was satisfactory. Location is a plus and the parking valets were very pleasant. With a little attention to maintenance, the hotel could make vast improvements in the quality of the stay. Read more

This is not a pretty hotel. There are water stains on the ceiling, I'm fairly certain the roof was leaking when it rained, the hallway smelled strongly of marijuana, and the décor hasn't been updated in awhile. However, the beds were comfortable, breakfast was ample, and the location is unbeatable (one block from Congress Ave.). I wouldn't stay here […] if you are looking for luxury, but if you're looking for a place to rest in between having a wonderful time in downtown Austin, this place is a great choice. Read more

Very disappointed in the run down condition of the hotel and the noise level from the Saturday night younger set who frequent the downtown night spots. The charge was $200/night which I normally would not find acceptable. However, the location of a family wedding made the decision to stay at this hotel. The hotel staff were very courteous and helpful […] and that is not always the case at motels/hotels. We will never stay at this hotel again regardless of the location. Read more

Would of been better to have known about parking.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

If you're in Austin and need to be close to the Capitol, this is the place. Literally acroos the street. Also well within walking distance to 6th Street. Staff was incredible, very customer service oriented, and the valet only parking makes staying here a pleasure.

The hotel was in somewhat worn condition from the elevators to the general condition of the room. The location while being somewhat central to the city proved to be noisy at night from the noise, the other guests (who seemed to be the late night party crowd) and the air conditioner compressor which was very noisy. I will choose a different hotel next […] time. Read more

All rooms are motel style with an outdoor entrance. Sound has no problem traveling through the walls so you get the pleasure of hearing your neighbor's toilet flushing as well as hearing the neighbors TV. It is right by the Capitol building which is pretty convenient. It wasn't so bad for a night, just don't expect much.

We stayed at the La Quinta for its location knowing it wasn't going to be top notch. We were not wrong in our assessment. Walkability is amazing if your plans include the Capitol, 6th St, and downtown in general. The service was good, the continental breakfast standard, and the pool looked worthy (though we did not use it). Just take into consideration […] that this is an older, not well maintained motel... old carpets, no sound proofing, aged fixtures (doors, elevator, windows, walkways). Our air conditioner leaked so a moldy smell was obvious in the room and our sheets had hair from previous users within (didn't come out in the wash?). But we paid for convenience not bling so were not surprised, though the price was bit high in my opinion. I am disappointed that La Quinta doesn't give this hotel more love... I'm sure they feel they don't have to as regardless of its condition it gets massive amounts of Capitol business. Read more

Best bet on a budget. The staff is real nice and its not totally run down like other cheap motels in the area. Its actually more like a hotel. Much recommended

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

Rooms are fine but rest of hotel needs facelift.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

Don't waste your time. Place was one of the most disgusting places I have ever stayed in my 15 year career of traveling all over for work. Spend a little more money and stay somewhere you don't have to wear your clothes to bed...

Definitely a 2 star hotel. Very outdated. The doors have no weatherstripping or are not insulated so you hear everything that goes on in the hallways, even as light as footsteps. It was like sleeping in the hallway.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

Breakfast was good. Price was higher than usual.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

I felt like I was in a 4 story 1950's motel. All the rooms had exterior doors and a concrete walkway outside so you heard everything and everyone who went by your room. It was just cheesy. Plus parking was an extra expense and our car was damaged by that "service". I won't be allowing them in my pocket agin. There are much better options.

The hotel is okay. Staffs were very friendly and made us feel welcomed. But The wall between our room and the next room is so paper thin that we could hear guests next room talking all night long. We couldn't sleep and had to cut our stay short and moved to other hotel.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

I traveled to Austin twice in Feb. for work and both times stayed at this location. First trip wasn't as bad and maybe it was just the room but it had a very moldy/musty smell and only way I could tolerate it was to run the AC unit which didn't function correctly either. The room was dingy and made me a bit uncomfortable. Overall location was good but […] would not stay here again. Read more

OK although overpriced for sleeping, but use it as a pricey motel by the freeway on a road trip. Advise: if you don't want to spend >200 bucks, get in late, and leave early. No food, no restaurants, no shops, no espresso, nothing around worth seeing, deserted if not scary at night, takes 15 min to get a taxi for escape, poor bublic transportation.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

Very bad service, no computer to primt boarding pass, taxi was not called in time. Front desk is not polite

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

I just think it was a little over priced to not be such a great place. It was clean and great service but not that great for what I paid.

This hotel is pretty mediocre. I knew it was a budget hotel but it has zero amenities and this location is VERY loud and noisy. The staff was pretty friendly but this hotel is run-down. It is not a bad location if you are in Austin or visiting the university. Otherwise I would not necessarily recommend it.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

I like that this hotel is far enough from the craziness of 6th street and quiet, but close enough to walk to the convention center and all thd fun. The staff was friendly and flexible. Breakfast was an added bonus. Although the exterior is dated, the rooms are clean and updated. I'd stay here again.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

I would sum up this hotel as... acceptable for one night. It will get the job done, but I would never go out of my way to stay here...

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

The hotel is very close to the Capitol, so it is nicely situated in downtown. The only thing to realize is that it is only valet parking. I guess they are preventing anyone other than guests to park, but it does add a step to leaving the hotel via car. It does need an upgrade to the rooms, with some older styles and there is limited TV channels (many […] were even unavailable during my stay). Read more

Walking distance to UT, Capitol, and 6th street. Hotel is decent it's just a little old and the bathtub was kind of dirty. Other than that it was good, friendly staff

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

good hotel for the price

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

Since the hotel location was close to the main attractions it was good.The personnell was not kind, and breakfast room was very samll, and the hotel was old.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

I chose this property to be close to UT and downtown. Location was convenient. Property is older but reasonably well-maintained. Advertisement suggested free parking which was not the case. Two problems with the room - noise from outside until late at night and bedding reeked of bleach. Overall a so-so value for the money.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

Overall, the hotel was nice and the staff very friendly. The room was clean and comfortable. However, the lower price of this hotel, compared to comparable hotels in Austin, was offset by the mandatory valet parking. And, apparently, there's no other options for parking than to pay $13/day. Not very happy that this was not disclosed anywhere.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

The hotel looks like an old motel that was converted so not the most nice to look at from the outside. It was also at the end of the strip so to speak so you have to walk a few blocks to get to anything. Overall it was nice in the room and the free breakfast was decent. For price, if you are looking not to spend much this is a decent place. The hotel […] staff was nice. Read more

La Quinta Inn is located right behind the Capitol building & just 5-6 blocks from downtown, so it's a great place to stay to be within walking distance of everything. And for the price, it's not a bad hotel, but be prepared to give up all comforts. It has a very motel-like atmosphere, with the doors facing the outside corridor & the musky smell of the […] rooms. Our bathtub had water trapped underneath it, so it felt like we were walking on a waterbed whenever we'd get in the shower. And the complimentary soaps made your skin feel like chalk. But the beds are decent & so is the breakfast spread (waffles, bagels, yogurt, cereal, fruit, coffee, juice) & it ends at 9AM on weekdays and 10AM on weekends. They also force you to valet park for $12.99 a night, lame! But overall, it was quiet & clean. If you're traveling on a budget, I'd recommend it. If you can afford the splurge, definitely do it!

We were a group of young alumni that came to visit Austin for a UT basketball game. It was a great hotel for the use we were looking for, a place to sleep. It was a little bit noisy at night/in the morning and generally had a 20-something clientele. It was a great location for the UT basketball arena and we ended up walking home from 6th Street and […] other bars at night. A little bit long, but very do-able walk. Overall we were very satisfied with our stay. It is not top-quality hotel but it is very clean and suits its purpose for the price. Read more
