Cute hotel but incredibly rude staff ruined it
Security guard kept harassing me....
This woman came to my car in the parking garage and needed to make sure "I was a hotel guest" and didn't do the same for anyone else. So I showed her my key cards and she gave me a look then walked away??
But here's the crazy part...
I had been out and I was tired so I go into my room around 3 AM(mind you I was not visibly impaired at all) and then SHE COMES KNOCKING ON MY DOOR AT 4:30 IN THE MORNING to "check on me". I asked her if I had done anything wrong and she said no, so I asked why she insisted on harassing me and she says, "I won't anymore ma'am."
I was in shock.
I've never been treated this way in my entire life and I have a lingering suspicion that there was an undertone of discrimination that lead to this.
I was a woman staying in a room alone.
I hadn't done anything wrong, and I didn't deserve any of that. I paid for a room just like everyone else did. It made me feel really really sad; I couldn't have been more respectful yet I received exactly the opposite.
You guys can do better; no one deserves to be so obviously singled out like that without cause whatsoever.

It is a very cold environment. No carpet, just concrete floors and a few rugs. Our hair dryer didn’t work. The electricity in the kitchen area went out on day two. We had to call maintenance to reset. It was a funky Austin kind of place but for the money I was not impressed.

Honest feedback
Stay was okay. My air conditioning in the room wasn’t great. 33 dollars a night for parking is absolutely ridiculous considering there is zero parking near the hotel. Sketchy area also.

Hidden Gem
This was a fantastic boutique hotel. I'm so glad we were able to stay here. The hotel itself is located a good 15-20 minute walk from the shops and restaurants on South Congress. The hotel staff were amazing. Our flight had gotten in early and we went to drop off our bags before check-in and we not only were able to check in but we were fortunate to have been upgraded. Our rooms were spacious, clean and pleasantly decorated. The coffee shop and bar were also very good. Although we didn't get a chance to try, the food truck smelled fantastic every day. I would definitely stay here again!

Will stay at Colton Hotel again!
Totally enjoyed ourselves at Colton. Hotel staff extended very warm welcome. We loved the coffee and the drinks from Cafe Simona's and the tacos from the food truck on site.

Home away from home!
Very impressed with the room layouts and luxuriousness of Colton House. Love that it feels like you’re staying in a homey room as opposed to a stale hotel room. The front staff was very friendly and I loved the location of this hotel as well. Will definitely stay again when we are back in Austin!

Will run back to CH as soon as we can!
We met family in Austin for an overnight before Run for the Water and Colton House was perfect for us! We wanted a true Austin experience and didn't want to stay at a generic hotel downtown. We loved having coffee outside after the run!
