Great stay, outstanding service
Great location in Austin; lots of great restaurants and bars within walking distance while also easy access to the trails by the lake/river. Hotel itself is very nice as I have come to expect from W franchise; not a big room but very stylish and just what my wife and I were looking for. Very nice bar and restaurant with a fabulous outdoor seating area.
What I most appreciated was the great service we received from the staff. Always very attentive for helping us with local plans and dinner reservations; they also arranged a free shuttle for us to be dropped off by some of the art galleries. Finally, when I got back home, they were very accommodating with re-issuing my invoice that had some problems due to the group that arranged my business conference. Unfailingly polite and attentive. 
I did not get to visit the pool but it looked very popular (crowded). Some friends rented a covered cabana and highly recommended it. 
I would definitely recommend a stay there and would love to go back again.
