Gorgeous property, fab staff -...

Liked: Relaxed vibe, very boutique feel with gorgeous decor everywhere..24 hr access to pool. Record player. Staff were super friendly and went above and beyond. Grounds felt really private and well maintained. Free parking. We stayed in 2 different rooms, both were lovely but preferred the pool bungalow for privacy and space. I can see why celebs choose to stay here. We wished we could stay longer but it was fully booked so they helped us book their sister hotel next door (Magdelena) which was also cute decor wise, great brekky & staff etc but had a lot of guests and was more rowdy and less personal than St Cecilia’s. Big shout out to Tara who looked after us, extended our stay and made sure a pregnancy pillow and heavy bags were sorted out ☺️
Disliked: Almost everything was perfect but sadly the food/cafe needs work. Everything we had was overly salted, even the butter for croissants had like a teaspoon of salt on top. Sadly the morning coffee was either incorrect or awful everytime. There was 0 consistency. A flat white is not filtered coffee with a dash of milk. They always seemed to forget sugar. A trained barista and a chef who is not so heavy handed on the salt would step things up a level.

Passable

Loved it so much!

Liked: We loved all the details ! Definitely coming back next time we are in Austin!
Disliked: The records, impeccable design, the amenities in the room, the staff is really kind, also located in a really lovely area

Exceptional

Good

Great location and cool place

Liked: Great location and boho feel - spacious room. Car parking on site and excellent gym nearby which you can use as a guest
Disliked: Staff were a bit grumpy when helping out and breakfast system was not great - hanging card the night before but not collected - felt ike they were short staffed

Perfect away from home accommodations!

Liked: Loved everything about it! The depth of design thought of the rooms, the overall style, the hip quirkiness. The staff was welcoming, professional, helpful and kind.
Disliked: Wish my stay could have been longer!

Poor

Disliked: I had a piece of gum stuck to the bottom of the remote, they came and cleaned it up, but I felt that there should have been more done since I paid so much-- they said they would help out but didnt. odd. I choose night hotels bc I want them to be clean

Superb

Relaxing and comfortable

Liked: Breakfast was delicious
Disliked: Breakfast was very expensive- seemed disproportionate. I think a little more direction on how to get to check in would have been appropriate when we called from the parking lot. Considering the distance it would have been nice if someone had asked if we needed help with our bags.
