The location of this hotel is what sold me. Unfortunately, not being from Austin, I had no idea until after I booked the hotel that this place is haunted. Its listed as one of the most haunted hotels in the country.

Lots of history and
very high ceiling. Had meat loaf at the restaurant and it was terrible; great chocolate cake, however. Room service had only turkey BLT the first night I arrived (around 11:30pm); very disappointed.
