Great place for the price! Easy access. Pet accommodating. Nice!
I stayed at Orangewood Suites on 04 May 2012 and 05 May 2012 then checked out mid-morning 06 May 2012. I was in Austin for a wedding and wanted to stay in the same location as my friends who were in the wedding party. This worked out perfectly for all as all age ranges were in the wedding party. The location was extremely easy to find. It had great freeway access . This was a plus as there were some wedding-related tasks to do. The price was very reasonable. Room was clean and well attended to each day. Having a kitchen was great! It allowed for fresh snacks, light lunch fare, and everyone's favorite beverages to be available. Regular meals could have been prepared as it had a full-sized range, dishwasher, and a microwave. Being pet friendly was definitely a plus for some of the wedding party guests. Good news if you need to find a place that allows pets. (Of course, the pets were crated when guests were not in the room, which is more than reasonable.) The free breakfast buffet was very good. Buffet area looked out over the pool, which is always nice. Pool was a nice size and appeared to be very well kept. There was a grill near the pool for quests to use, I assume. Seemed like a nice touch. The staff were friendly and pleasant. I didn't notice any unusual Cinco de Mayo noise, unlike what some others indicate they experienced. Honestly, I expected some fiesta-type noise (after all, it was Cinco de Mayo weekend!) but didn't notice anything too loud or prolonged. I found my suite very quiet and comfortable. My overall experience was very positive. I would recommend Orangewood Suites to any who want reasonably priced accommodations with full kitchen and easy access to many of Austin's attractions. My thanks to the staff for making my experience very pleasant.
