All good except the code entry is annoying
The room was nice, clean, good location, and the were nice outdoor spaces. But the access via code entry was really annoying. There’s a 6 digit code that you have to enter every time you have to get through any door even the elevator back down to the lobby. It was excessive and super finicky. I even got stuck in the elevator at one point because when my code wasn’t working the door closed and it wouldn’t let me go back up or open the door to get out at lobby level, I didn’t have my phone and it at least let me get to the basement, luckily a cleaning staff member was able to let me back up.

Great location
I had a pleasant stay; it was within walking distance of everything. The staff were very friendly and helpful. Although the construction was an eyesore, it will look amazing once completed.

Nice but a few changes are needed
Let me start by saying that the hotel was located in a perfect spot as far as getting to all the fun areas such as sixth Street and Congress Avenue. That in itself is worth the money. It appears that they are transitioning from residential apartments to full-time hotel. They haven’t really gotten the hotel part down 100%. There was no Maid Service and they didn’t give enough supplies such as toilet paper, cleaning supplies, and paper towels. We loved the fact that we had our own kitchen and could make breakfast every morning without having a rush out the door, but they only gave us four plates, glasses and silverware. The code situation to get in and out of your room and to get into any of the amenities was annoying. They should definitely consider changing that to a swiping card.
The terrace that is accessible was fantastic and all the look of the bike trail, which was really cool to see people going by especially at night and the skyline was gorgeous.

Great place and great location.
I had a great stay at Placemakr in downtown Austin. The apartment building is conveniently located next to I-35 so easy in and out to the city, but was also walkable to restaurants and bars. The property is clean and has some really cool shared spaces. Would highly recommend and would definitely stay again.

Horrible experience and communication
Overall HORRIBLE experience. This was a very confusing process and the employees had no idea what was going on. Every person I talked to had a different answer and none were helpful. I also had to fight 4 employees to get a receipt, and that receipt didn’t even match the charge on my card. I would never stay here again. Don’t waste your money or time here.

Great location, spacious, well-equipped
The title says it all. The property is located at the heart of Austin. We walked everywhere in the city. The staff was friendly and the apartment is well-equipped and spacious. We had noisy lodgers upstairs for the first 2 nights which is not the hotel's fault; however, it is worth noting that sound travels between floors. The big question is 'Would I stay here again?' The answer is Yes.

Fire alarm
Tell me why the fire alarm went off at 430am and concierge had no clue what was going on. Check in communication text was never sent . Hotel did nothing to compensate for horrible night of sleep.

Convenient but unclean
The property was close to the Austin convention center and made it really easy to get to my conference sessions. However, I had to kill roaches in the room. When I told the front about it they just said they would take care of it, no offer to reduce the payment for needing to kill roaches and check all my bags and clothes to make sure I didn’t bring any home with me. I stayed on the second floor.
