Holiday Inn Express & Suites Austin Downtown - University by IHG
Very clean room. Convenient walking to many places. Great check in service. Breakfast way too many people, shortage of food and breakfast area was very warm. Not much fruit and what was there was rotten (apples only). The only disappointment of our stay.
