Fairfield Inn & Suites by Marriott Austin Northwest/Research Blvd
This hotel was great; it is extremely close to the freeway and is noisy. The staff did not inform us of certain policies that would have helped with future stays, but overall the hotel was nice and had easy access to the freeway. The breakfast was a hot breakfast.
