3. -Cheapness of fixtures: toilet was not installed straight and lurched every time I sat on it; there was an exposed carpet tack in the floor that I stepped on with bare feet a couple of times; whenever I would turn the overhead light on in the hallway when coming in the door to the room the light would flash like crazy for about 30 seconds before finally turning on.

5. Pretty sparse; room very white-plain; bare-bones.

6. I know that the people who live in Austin really like it, but I find that the food is barely edible (both the BBQ and the Mexican food are not good BBQ or good Mexican food, and that is almost the only things you can eat here), the weather is barely tolerable for much of the year, and the hotels are barely stayable, like this one.
