Hyatt House Austin/Downtown
It was spacious and quiet!!!! It also had lots of lobby space and also outdoor seating area by the pool. The bed was comfortable as well. It was in a good central downtown location but about a block away from all the loud craziness of downtown.

La Quinta Inn by Wyndham Austin Capitol / Downtown
All staff was excellent, and I appreciated the available coffee! Overall I thought the price I paid ($497) for two nights was far too high for the quality of the hotel, and I have regrets about booking at La Quinta. I do understand that it was SXSW and prices are likely higher around that time.

Orangewood Inn & Suites Midtown
Only slept did not hang out at the hotel. Breakfast was good. No complaints. Road construction made entrance tough but no fault of hotel….
