Everything was great. I was charged an amenity fee and I wasn’t aware of this, I also gave a tip. If I would have known I was being charged that would have been helpful. I was not aware the credit I received for food was for the restaurant next to the hotel. I paid for food that was not correct and I didn’t eat it. Other than that everything was wonderful. Staff are very kind.

The hotel was fabulous, very Austin cool. The staff was amazing. The tv in one of the rooms of our suite had a software issue. It was late at night so the staff gave my husband a key to the room next door so my husband could watch TV without waking me. The pool was awesome and food delicious!!! We will return!!!!!

Not impressed
Staff was rude. There were cigarette buds on the balcony and no soap in the room. We had a double bed room but the bathroom door did fully close and the dressing area was very small. The other rooms might be better.

If you like Bahamian service, you will love…
Upon check-in, one bed didn’t have any pillows. No on brought luggage to my room even though bellman unloaded my car for us. On day of checkout, I requested my car via QR code given. I went downstairs twenty minutes later to be told the app isn’t working…took 35 minutes for valet to bring my car. Also, I was told the bellman was super busy when I called to inquire where he was to collect our luggage, but when I went to valet I saw a luggage cart in the corner so decided to go scoop my own luggage again.

We stayed at Hotel Magdalena for 5 nights. Our stay was enjoyable overall but not as perfect as I would have hoped, given the price point. The Good: - Excellent location for visitors from out of town. Lots of restaurants, ice cream, coffee shops steps away. There is lots of shopping nearby but it's largely upscale. If you are a good walker, you can easily cross the South Congress bridge and explore downtown Austin. - The hotel is absolutely beautiful, inside and out. The grounds are landscaped and designed very well, and the pool was an excellent amenity. The Bad: - Upon checking in, I was notified of a hold on my card that was alarming to the least. I initially paid for 2 nights via Expedia and then later changed my reservation to stay 3 more nights, with the balance to be paid at the end of the stay. The amount authorized on my card was nearly 3X the balance owed, even including amenity fees and incidentals. They were very nice and fixed the "mistake" once asked, but it left me uneasy knowing that they could make such a serious error and not every guest would necessarily catch it. - The sliding bathroom door did not lock and would therefore slide open on its own occasionally. Not great for if you have guests over to your room.
