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.

Loved the say
The only thing was we didn’t get notified when the place was ready and code. Until we arrived and I asked the man working for it.
