The Zaza was fine...nothing special for 400 a night. The staff was really great, that would be the highlight. The area is good, you can walk to a lot of things but I don't think downtown Austin is the "it" place anymore...feels like south congress is where you would want to stay. The rooms are soooooo dark. Getting dressed was like being blind, honestly. The lighting definitely needs to be upgraded. The general decor was outdated and the hallways to your room didn't read as a nice hotel. Bed was comfy, the room was large, and the drinks at the restaurant were really good. I just think it's a little expensive for what you get. We got a couples massage and it was one of the worst massages I've ever gotten, which is a shame b/c it was $450 .
