Will come back here
I loved that our room had its own kitchen and the atmosphere was great. Amazing breakfast options and the water they served was extremely refreshing.

Unfortunately you need to avoid this hotel.
The HVAC system made a SUPER loud “KACHUNK” sound when it shut off (which was random - but sometimes a couple times an hour). It was startling every single time. Impossible to sleep through. It’s too bad because it’s otherwise a nice place.
Oh, and the valet is ridiculous - it took 40 minutes to get our car.

Nice place
Everything was great. Not completely happy with pet policy. Left me a prisoner to my room/pets which made it nearly impossible to go out for dinner or a walk about town.

Great location for UT football
Great location when visiting for a UT football game. Comfortable walking distance to stadium. (1.2 miles) and you’ll walk with crowd of others both before and after games. So relatively safe. Room was great.
