Best Hotels near J. Lorraine, TX. Ghost Town Austin, Manor

In the words of Bette Davis, “What a Dump.” In its favor, we had a nice view of Lady Bird Lake from our window, which was pretty to wake up to, and the water pressure in the shower was great! The bathroom seemed partially updated and was pretty decent. Free parking, too. There were a few HBO channels on tv. However, the hotel is very dated and not very clean looking. The indoor parking garage was filthy and was dimly lit. Didn’t feel very safe in there, so we parked in the outside lot whenever possible. No greeting from the night time desk clerk when we came back from dinner, as she seemed to purposely be avoiding eye contact with us (she wasn’t on the phone or busy with someone else). The elevators were very smudgy and too dark, also. The beds slumped a bit in the middle, the linens were old and tired looking, and the chair in the corner looked worse than some I’ve put by the curb. An old leak on the ceiling was poorly patched up, and there were stains on the desk chair, carpet and walls. The door to the adjoining room didn’t provide enough sound proofing, as I heard our neighbor’s phone convo loud and clear. The pool area didn’t look very inviting, as there were no umbrellas or trees to block the strong sun. We wanted to stay in downtown Austin to be within walking distance to things, so this was the least expensive option. But not much could be walked to from there, and the area it was in was a bit sketchy, so we ended up taking Ubers, anyway. We had booked our last night at a hotel in the Arboretum area, because this one went up to a ridiculously high amount for Friday night (music festival in town), and it ended up being just as convenient to take an Uber from there (15-20 mins) to downtown. Plus, the hotel was much nicer and way less expensive. Live and learn.

Our stay was simple and easy for Austin, Texas just down the street from the Great State of Texas Capital building or a short walk to the river. The hotel staff will greet you and have you wisked away to your room as fast as possible. Our room #2314 was a regular king room and the large size was good to have. The windows were floor to ceiling to have great views of the city day or night. Austin is home to the Texas music scene so many stay here for the access to all that is offered. The staff made sure our stay was enjoyable and I highly recommend requesting the charcuterie board with a great bottle 🍾 as it was sent up for us from the hotel. This hotel is designed for the business traveler in mind, great meeting spot and conference hotel. Book a breakfast, lunch or dinner at the Corner for a great meal. We utilize the valet service during our stay and the easy texting system works great. 👍 All in all a great stay next time your in Austin try the JW Marriott. #texastravel #visittexas #marriottbonvoy

Hotel room has a taste, not recommended

Good location but room slightly dated

When we lost power and water, we headed to Comfort Suites where Hannah and her staff were amazing during a trying time. I had issues with the charges increasing the last 2 days (of 5 days total) and she handled the issues with professionalism and courtesy. I will say the only negative was the non-working fitness room equipment (cycle and treadmill) which would have come in VERY handy when trapped inside for days at a time!

The check-in and out was smooth. Our stay is ok, the room is quite small but bed is comfy. The breakfast option was nice but the next day, we woke up a bit late, we joined buffet breakfast at 8:30AM but most of the food were gone and was not replaced. The location is good, near N. Lamar Ave and I-35 which is accesible to Downtown Austin.

After a long day of traveling, we were very happy to arrive at the Best Western Plus in Pfluegerville! I called earlier in the day to let the front desk know that we would be arriving late. When we arrived at 10pm, the gentleman handed us our key and a paper to sign and stated we were already checked in and ready to go. The process took less than 1 minute! The hotel was spotless and looked new. Our room was amazing! The high ceilings made it look even more spacious (it was a big room!). We booked the 2 queen bed room which included a desk, a large dresser with great, usable space and also housed a microwave and refrigerator behind cupboard doors. The room had an amazing large fainting couch with a side table tray. If we stayed longer than one night, that would have been my go to spot to read a book or have a snack! It was super comfy too! The beds were amazing and I'm not saying that just because we were so tired. They were quite possibly the most comfortable hotel beds that I've ever slept upon! I was also super happy that I had FOUR pillows all to myself. The bathroom was clean and the shower was good. I loved the shampoo/conditioner/body wash dispenser on the wall of the shower. It was decent product too! The bathroom mirror was perfectly lighted for makeup application and there was a secondary adjustable mirror on the wall with a light for magnification. Super impressed with this hotel. Best Western Plus locations are always nice but this one hit the ball out of the park! If I could give 10 stars, I would!

Half the lights didnt work but overall a good stay

I stay at this location frequently while in Austin on business. The rooms are always clean and I have not had one negative issue. Service has always been great. Inexpensive and easy access to freeway. Lots of places to eat nearby. Always on point.
