    Blood and pubic hair in the toilet
    Ashley I.

    I've stayed at this hotel twice. After my first stay here, I left a raving 5 star review and told many friends and family members about this hotel. I decided to stay here again last night, and my experience doesn't even deserve one star. There were some minor issues like having to wait 15 minutes at the front desk before an employee came to check me in, all because they couldn't get the mobile key to work. I'll take those kind of issues any day over what I experienced in the actual room. "Appalled" doesn't even begin to describe how I felt with my second stay. The first thing I noticed was that there was blood and (presumably) pubic hair in the toilet. At first I thought maybe housekeeping overlooked that, but upon further inspection of the room, it was obvious housekeeping never actually cleaned the room. There was hair on the sink, as well as dried toothpaste. There were numerous strands of hair in the bed, grease on the bedroom phone, hair on the kitchenette counter, old ice cream in the freezer, coffee in the disposable coffee cups, and the worst one yet..... hair INSIDE the folded towels. Housekeeping apparently took the towels that were in the room from the prior guest(s) and folded them back up as if they were unused. I called down to the front desk and expressed my concerns. The reply I received was, "sorry but there is no housekeeper present right now". I asked to move to a new room that had actually been cleaned and was told they were at full capacity. My last request was a refund due to the lack of housekeeping, in the middle of a pandemic, and was told no. Unfortunately, I will never stay here again and I will do my best to discourage others from staying here as well. My experience was unacceptable and the hotel did absolutely nothing to try and correct any of the issues.

    Dog friendly
    Gabriella F.

    We (my dog, Gertie, and I) just checked in to The Element at Austin Round Rock and we are so excited about finding this hotel, and brand! I travel a ton for work and normally stay at Aloft hotels whenever I want to bring Gertie along. However, I'm so glad I stumbled upon Element properties being dog friendly too. It's lighter, brighter, and environmentally conscious. YAY for free filtered water in the guest rooms! I'm so happy I can catch up on emails and have Gertie laying right next to me; just like if we were at home. Pam at the front desk was so welcoming and walked me through the Element concept, plus key amenities including free breakfast in the morning, plus free happy hour in the evenings. She was a delight!

    I paid for a room online, when I went to check in at 8:15pm (well past regular check in time), I was told my room was not ready and still being sanitized and that it would take at least another 30 minutes. I am 7 months pregnant and have spent the day moving out of my house and driving across the state. All I need in the world is a place to shower and sleep immediately. Yet I was told to wait and not offered any sort of discount. How do you get off selling rooms that you are unable to sanitize in the NINE HOURS that have passed since check out time this morning? Haven't even set foot in my room yet and can already guarantee I will never be back again. UPDATE: after waiting an hour, finally got into my room to find it is 84 degrees in the middle of August. Absolutely unacceptable. I have never seen a more poorly run hotel. SECOND UPDATE: AC is broken and their solution is to downgrade us to a smaller room. We picked this hotel based on availability of two room suites as two of us have to work out of this room all week and we have a full size dog with us. If we knew we would have a tiny queen studio, we could have picked any hotel we wanted. This is singlehandedly the worst hotel experience I have ever had.

Every staff member we encountered was genuinely kind, professional, and helpful. I am always happy to return to places that feel truly welcoming, and this hotel delivered on every level. There was nothing to overlook. Our room was spacious and well maintained, and both the room and common areas were very clean. Overall, the hotel was well run from top to bottom, and we would gladly stay here again if we are in the area. A special, heartfelt thank you to the housekeeping team for their hard work each day. The room and common areas were consistently immaculate, and their efforts, kindness, and professionalism truly made a difference in our stay.

There was free parking lot and plenty of spots available. The one queen bed and sofa room is perfect for a family. Everything looked clean and in working order. The bathroom looked modern which is always a plus. We didn't cook but the refrigerator and microwave worked well. I really liked the black out shades! The bed was slightly uncomfortable because I could feel the springs but I was still able to sleep fine. We used the pool twice and it wasn't crowded at all. It had a few lounge chairs and several regular chairs. The staff made sure to keep the towels stocked when they knew we were headed to the pool. There was also a gym but we didn't check it out. The complimentary breakfast had a good variety including a fountain drink machine. I liked making the Texas shaped waffles. My only rec would be more fruit options. Check out was simple by putting the key card at the front desk. I would definitely consider coming back for another stay.

It is a gorgeous hotel with a beautiful spacious lobby, reception area for happy hour, and the rooms appeared newly renovated. Loved the layout of our room, it was very comfortable and having a mini fridge is always a plus. However, after a long day out, coming back to our hotel room for rest for peace and relaxation did not happen. Although our room was 4 floors up, it was located above the hotel bar/ restaurant. We could hear the music for hours! In addition, the walls were paper thin, our neighbors and their dog were loud- we could hear conversations, footsteps, etc. Definitely not a peaceful hotel! Embassy is known for their happy hour and made to order breakfasts. We received two complimentary drink tickets per person. Drinks were strong, and the snacks consisted of goldfish, pretzels, carrot sticks with ranch, chips, and fresh popped popcorn. While I was sipping on my drink, I observed a gloved female employee, in charge of popcorn, use those same gloved hands and eat the popcorn!!! After placing a couple of bagged popcorn on the counter for guests, she walked around eating it on the job with those same gloves and proceeded to head to the snack area and do the same! Unprofessional and disgusting. Made to order breakfast was ok. I did appreciate the omelette station. Checkout was easy. Not sure I would stay here again, but I did like how close proximity it was to the outlets.

Of note, the hot wings were slightly crispy on the outside and oh so super moist inside...yummy to my tummy. Also the shaved cucumbers were crunchy and flavorful.

The servers were like ninjas with picking up used plates and utensils. I will definitely come back. Bar Louie is next door and another possible dining opportunity.

I guess she tagged me to be a "difficult customer" even when I didn't make a big deal and admitted I was at fault ... however, when I got in the room, the room was filthy. When I called her, she was not apologetic, was condescending, and not helpful at all. She quickly said she can offer a refund or we stay in the room. She could care less about the inconvenience... she didn't bother to offer to perhaps send housekeeping to maybe clean the room again since they can't offer a clean room for us... I had to call corporate who was much helpful, but in the end, we decided to book with Hyatt - and they were actually cheaper. Then, when I went downstairs to tell them we'll take the refund, I told her (and maybe the manager that was standing next to her) that I left the dog hairs I found on the night stand and that the chair they have was sticky and filthy. They just looked at me and was like "OK". Oh wow - my husband and I were laughing as we drove off... what a joke. We feel bad for the owner of this hotel. The two ladies at the front are the representatives of their business and the brand and let me tell you, those two ladies don't give a flying you-know-what if this hotel thrives. We come in this area about 8x a year since my sons loves Kalahari. We really thought this place was a good alternative when we aren't staying in the waterpark for the whole weekend like we're doing this time. But ... Total yuck. Please do yourself a favor and drive the extra few minutes to go to a much cleaner hotel. Off to Hyatt we go. It's only an extra 8 minutes down the road.

I still can't believe how illogical, confrontational, and rude their entire staff was to our group, all stemming from their unhinged GM named Holly. She is a real piece of work. The morning our group was to arrived I asked them to put out this very simple "Welcome to Austin" sign addressed toward those from our group. We've used this same sign at 40+ properties nationwide. The nutcase proceeded to very aggressively tell me they can't advertise in their hotel. It wasn't an advertisement lol. A simple sign for the night of check in considering we were taking up 4/5 of their hotel for the entire weekend! Give me a break, right? How the conversation should have went: Brent, we've been waiting for you and are excited for the big weekend. Thanks so much for bringing your large group to our hotel. Here's my cell phone. Don't hesitate to call or email me if you run into any issues. We appreciate your business. Instead, this absolutely ridiculous woman named Holly proceeded to CALL THE POLICE and file a no trespassing order since I persisted to try to convince her to allow the sign. She basically kicked me out of the hotel for simply trying to reason. But I learned she is not logical and has no common sense so it was a dead end. Absolutely ridiculous and disappointing! I'm not a fan of cancel culture and going after people's jobs but if anyone deserves to be fired, this insane lady Holly needs to be axed IMMEDIATELY. When Monday hits I'm working up the corporate ladder to make sure Marriott makes it up to me and that this obnoxious obnoxious, power tripping woman doesn't play this game with someone else ever again. Absolute nightmare and added stress I didn't need while trying to focus on bringing hospitality to our large event and its participants that chose to join us. Total slap in the face. Holly, you are a disgrace, as well are the associates standing there going along with her antics and not putting a stop to her charades.

The hotel only cleans every other day to cut costs, so you must request a cleaning if you want more often than that. That is exactly what we did. Unfortunately, this is what we saw when we got back to the hotel, see pic below, when we requested a cleaning. The excuse from the receptionist was the hotel was full so they did not have enough housekeepers to clean our room. Then the manager called the next day after we had to send two texts about what happened. He said it happened because the housekeeper saw a do not disturb sign on the door. Either way it is unacceptable, and the fact that they have conflicting stories about the incident is not good. Certainly, if the housekeeper should have come back to clean the room, knowing we specifically requested a cleaning. Other than that the breakfast was lousy--even by complimentary breakfast standards. The omelette tasted rubbery, the oatmeal was soggy and there were very few selctions. It was so bad that very few people were seen at breakfast the whole stay. Finally, the pool was unusable the whole time we were there. Apparently the pool heater broke which would have cost $5000 to fix, so despite the weather being nice, the pool was closed because a multimillion dollar company did not want to spend five thousand to fix a heater and settle the cost with the warranty company later. Despite the problems we had, the manager who checked us out, did not offer us a penny off the bill, very poor service and we would not recommend anyone to stay here.

I am a licensed attorney and a professional and I never even raised my voice. Who the heck calls the POLICE on a guest for making a customer service complaint? I wasn't even onsite anymore at the time. I was talking to Sonya on the phone after SHE CALLED ME. Once she made the threat, I then called the Round Rock PD myself to find out if she actually did file a complaint on me. I am waiting to hear back. Below, I've detailed more information about what happened. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I travel WEEKLY for business and I have NEVER been treated as horribly as I was treated by SONYA and because of her, I will NEVER stay at a Hilton property ever again. This hotel does not honor its service guarantee. When I checked in, I had already registered and PREPAID on my American Express card. Despite that, I was still made to fill out an archaic PAPER registration form because they said the "owner" thinks people will lie and say they never stayed at the hotel. Then, the elevator was FILTHY. The major issue, though, is the service. I was NEVER informed that they do housekeeping every other day. I also requested IN WRITING that I receive extra towels. Despite my request, when I returned to my room after a long work day, my room had NOT been cleaned and I had NOT received towel service. I had to clean my own room, handle my own dirty towels and trash, and was offered a measly 1500 points, then 2000 which I expressed was NOT SATISFACTORY. I was not offered a CLEAN ROOM. I was NOT OFFERED A REFUND FOR THE NIGHT'S STAY AS LISTED ON THE GUARANTEE, AND I was not offered POINTS to cover a night. Instead, I was treated like CRAP. Sonya, the "manager," brushed me off in my face, then faked like she was going to "look into the matter," and called me about an hour later after I had checked out, and said they weren't going to do anything to assist. When I asked had she talked to the person who checked me in, she then HUNG UP IN MY FACE. After Sonya hung up on me, I called the hotel back and asked for another manager or the owner's contact information. Alyssa, the front desk agent, said that I was "creating a problem" and to "please stop calling." Mind you, this was my FIRST AND ONLY call besides when Sonya called me then hung up in my face. I asked how I was creating a problem by asking for service as a hotel guest? Alyssa then said the only person I could talk to was Sonya. I said, great. Please transfer me to Sonya again. I was transferred to Sonya who THREATENED ME and said said she was going to report me to ROUND ROCK POLICE DEPARTMENT FOR HARASSMENT. This is insane. I'm a licensed attorney and I did nothing illegal by asking for customer service at a HOTEL. Mind you, I am a professional woman and I was kind and did not raise my voice or treat them poorly at all. But, they were not only rude, they also threatened me with the POLICE. If you are BLACK OR A PERSON OF COLOR, do NOT stay at this hotel or at any HILTON chain. Even if you are not black, I suggest you look elsewhere. I plan to look into filing an action for discrimination. I will also be contacting Hilton's corporate office. They do not honor their guarantees or assist black customers. In addition to contacting corporate, I will be filing a complaint with the Attorney General of Texas for them not honoring the advertised guarantee and then threatening me with the police. This was the WORST hotel experience I've had in my life. Stay FAR AWAY FROM Hilton and if you must stay at a Hilton chain, I suggest you choose any other location except for this one!!!!!
