Por qué a la gente le encanta
Interiors are a texture-rich visual feast (Insta-gold)
The rooftop pool scene at La Piscina is a whole vibe
Goldie’s sunken bar feels like an exclusive secret club
Resumen rápido: A stunningly designed vertical playground that charges you for the aesthetic while construction noise rumbles outside.
Reseñado por @hey_mrzedd: I stayed at the Austin Proper and honestly, the design details are next level. Waking up to that Lady Bird Lake view with the automated shades was the perfect start to my morning. The Aesop products in the shower were the cherry on top.
Lo que dijeron los huéspedes que se hospedaron aquí
The hype
Design and service are top-tier, but the rooms can feel tight and the price tag is aggressive.
Reality check
You will hear the AC unit cycling on and off, and if you're on a lower floor, the street noise cuts right through the floor-to-ceiling windows.
You appreciate high-design interiors over square footage
You want a hotel bar scene that locals actually envy
You're traveling with a dog (very pet-friendly)
