Hyatt Centric Congress Ave Austin
Everything was fine, except one of the servers at the restaurant lied to us, saying we could not pay with cash, and later we found out it was a lie, since other waiters said the next day that it was not true that we only had to pay with a card. The waitress was not nice.
