Overpriced
I had previously stayed at this hotel multiple times and felt that it was a good deal the rooms were really nice for the price. Usually between $60 to $90 a night. Nice spacious rooms with King size beds, flat screen televisions with DVD players. I had complained previously about the dirty carpet in the rooms as I travelled to Austin a couple of times a month and stayed here regularly and they never seem to clean or get rid of the dirty longhorn logo carpet. But this was the only issue I had which was never corrected no matter how many times I complained. I recently went there and was quoted an exorbitant price for the room as they are now well aware of the good reviews (including my own left previously) which are now printed out and taped to the front desk as justification for huge increase in price. I could easily pay $10 extra and stay at the Hilton. Not only that but there were four police cars blocking the parking lot as there was had been some incident that occurred that night, I was not extremely alarmed as this hotel is not in the best of neighborhoods. Either way this super 8 motel went from being a jewel in the dust to being an over priced motel believing its own hype and charging prices that luxury hotels charge. I left as I'd rather get a room at the Hilton Garden Inn using my HH Honors rewards points for about the same price.
