Microtel Inn And Suites Buda

I liked this place. It was nicely decorated. Modern look and clean too. They offer free parking (always a plus). Free breakfast– we did not try.
The rooms look very nice and modern. What amazed me was it had a ceiling fan. Nice to get the air circulating. The bathroom even had an air vent. Which I never see in hotel bathrooms before. Or rarely. There are mirrors that lined the wall along the beds. Very modern.
The big thing we did not like and will deter us from staying here again are the beds. It was sooooo hard! It gave us some slight back pain the next morning. The bathroom was a bit on the tiny side. Only fit for one person at a time. I just did my make up at the bed in front of the mirror since the bathroom had so little space.
I really enjoyed the place. But not the beds. That’s a big thing for us. We need it somewhat softer if not plush.

Good for the price we got it for, just a few issues we ran in to, Room maintenance program needs improvement. Our AC filter was full of dirt and a few cheereos left in AC vent from someones kid I suppose, reported and they cleaned it that day. A few days later smoke alarm started chirping due to low battery, I reported that and it was still chirping the following night. I fixed the issue myself. Coffee runs out often in the morning on busy days and breakfast is very slim. But if looking for a budget night stay it is well worth it

Do yourself a favor don’t stay in Austin stay here! We were 25 minutes from San Marcos outlets 10 from Austin. I’ve never seen a pancake making machine till today for breakfast. Restaurants close by easy access to highway. Yes the walls were a little thin and the breakfast was slightly above average and the pool basic but it was clean and a great price and very nice employees. I’m no longer staying in Austin!

We just stayed one night there and it was great. They let us check on early, had great room with ceiling fan, noise machine, ridge, and microwave. They even had extra towels in the bathroom which is great with a family of four. The only issue is the cable needed to be upgraded to digital to get some of the channels.

I was more impressed by this place once we arrived.
We booked our room late for SXSW… so we had to go to Buda. It wasnt too far considering it could have been worse. We arrived late after a day of driving and going to SXSW festivities. The rooms were much smaller than I thought… but they had everything you needed. There was a mirror wall above the bed for some of you freaky types. LOL! Basic… but not too boring of a room.
The front desk staff was enough… the breakfast was your usual continnental fare. There was a ton of kids in the breakfast area… which I was like where are your parental unit (s) at?
For the price considering the weekend… it wasnt bad. I could seeing this being our river hotel or even another SXSW installment for 2015.

I stayed here one night for work and was extremely impressed. The rooms are actually really fancy for the price and was nicer than the last hotel I stayed at for almost double the price. They also were constantly cleaning everything anytime we were walking thru the hotel. I love a clean hotel! We went to the South Congress area for dinner and the drive wasn’t bad at all.

While the hotel itself was cute and the staff at check-​in was friendly, I would NOT recommend this hotel to anyone especially if you plan to book it in blocks of rooms. CC was the manager that I dealt with in booking a block of rooms. My family called to reserve their own rooms and were charged on their cards, yet I ended up being charged 5 times for the rooms that were already booked and paid for! After talking to them about their mistake in charging me, I ultimately got a reversal for the room charges, but was assessed nearly $ 400 in overdraft/​insufficient funds fees from my bank as a result of the $ 1,000.00 that Microtel charged my card. I’m still battling headquarters to get the reimbursement, which is very time consuming and frustrating due to the fact that this is Microtel’s mistake, specifically CC and Julian’s mistake. Very bad customer service.

Ok, this Microtel was so worth the money! Rooms are modern looking, has a fridge/​microwave/​wardrobe closet and a mirrored wall above the beds! Staff was super courteous, to my flub of booking two single rooms in stead of one with two beds. They cleared that up and got us on the first floor! Continental breakfast was the usual fare, but good enough to get us ready for a day of outlets!
They even sent someone when I called about a spider in our bathroom! Way to rescue the girls!
Definitely will stay again if in the area!

I am completely impressed with this hotel. Everything you would expect from a hotel that costs at least 2x the price. Super clean (room, bathroom & common areas), beds are very comfortable, mini fridge, microwave, desk area, flat screen TV, and a large window seat. We will definitely be staying here again.

We stayed at Microtel for a few days during SXSW 2013. The pricing was ok and 15 driving minutes to the South Congress epicentre a short distance. Positvely, we could check in very early, what is not usual for this kind of hotels. Rooms and beds were good, bathroom for a new hotel a bit old fashioned. However, we basically came to sleep after the showcases. And here’s the negative side: as most buildings in the US, this hotel is build of wood and, you guess, you can hear your neighbours’ bedsport activities quite detailed. I don’t mind, but it gives you a light sleep during the night. As well as the aircondition. I thought this kind of 1980s rammed below window boxes are out of fashion. No, they still exist — and quite loud. It took me a while find out how to switch this bastard completey off. So, due to all this disturbances I had to sleep longer in the morning. And here’s the next bummer. The room service pays no attention to your room, if you’re not left until 11am. So, we had three days with a non cleaned room. I don’t mind that much, as long as I have enough towels. But this is definitly a big service minus. I did not have any breakfast, so I cannot rate here. Wifi is free but pretty slow, once many people are logged in.

So much to like about this location and feel yet the walls are paper thin. I would def stay here again that is now worry. The rooms are a decent size and have most conveniences you would expect of hotel rooms. I am a big fan of being able to instantly hook up my PS3. The location just outside of Austin is nice and not to bad of a drive. Especially if you are doing stuff in south Austin, San Marcos or neighboring communities. Like I said earlier the only down fall is the walls are paper then. Could hear almost anything happening outside my room, above, next door or in the hall. Guess it all depends on what you are looking for.
