What a difference a Baymont makes...
We had had a rather awful experience at another hotel chain on the way to Austin and had decided we did not want to stay at that chain when we got there. Canceled our reservation and asked our trusty GPS for a hotel nearby. Called the Baymont and spoke with Lisa who found us the best rate for two nights and the room we wanted.
When we arrived, check-in was handled quickly and efficiently. Our room was clean and cool and the wireless worked perfectly. A hotel directory was in the room, along with a bigger room refrigerator than is usual and a microwave. 
The next morning, we woke up after a great rest on a comfortable king bed. Went down to an excellent hot breakfast-real eggs, not under-cooked sausage, biscuits, waffles, fruit and the hottest coffee ever. The breakfast room is very cheerful with cool tiled tables. Anytime you're thirsty, there's ice water and hot coffee waiting 24 hours a day. 
The swimming pool is cold, but large enough to actually swim and unkink those traveling muscles. We enjoyed sitting out there, drinking Mexican beer and actually getting a tan. In October. The only thing wrong with the fitness room is that the recumbent bike is almost inoperable, but you're in Austin-a city loaded with parks and great places to walk. And all the other exercise equipment works great.
The hotel is centrally located and pretty easy to get almost anywhere to eat or shop in a matter of minutes. We enjoyed our stay and will make Baymont and Wyndham hotels our first choice when traveling. Thanks, Lisa.
