The aircon in this place is crazy, I'm freezing, in the hallways and the restaurant. The elevators are horrible too. Staff is very friendly though. Just bring a sweater.

Carpets are dated and amenities are above basic. Service is so-so at reception, but Lacie in the lounge is the best. The breakfast is actually good. Minuses is netted with a few pluses.

Just a few steps from the state Capitol, the Sheraton has ample meeting space (it has hosted South by Southwest Interactive Festival panels).

If you are here for SXSW 2013 check out the higi Hub lounge to refresh and recharge.

Additionally, the new wifi code is SPG2013. However, you won't need it because the Internet won't seem to connect in the rooms! Ended up having to use a random available network.

If you're platinum and have access to club lounge, Lacey has the most excellent customer service!

Should you leave your chargers, cologne or whatever in your room by the time you check out, don't trust that the housekeeping to keep it for you. Happened twice, no luck.

Going to TCEA 2011? Stop by the ALL In Learning booth and ask about "Tap It, Click It, Scan It". You might even win an iPod Touch or iPad!

The staff was very nice, but the hotel is very tired and is in need of updating. The chair and headboard were damaged. The price for hotel is not worth it. Will stay somewhere else next time.

Awful experience here. Broken elevators for days, staff refusing to serve coffee, cocktails at the arbitrary times of their liking. Avoid.

Due to no rain in the Austin area the hallways where the rms are located smell like wet animals!!! House keeping can't read do not disturb signs. Food over rated and over priced.
