I've been DYING to go back ever sense. I don't think I can even explain to you how addictive and all consuming the joy of playing these games are. Bonus, it's for sure a work out. If I lived closer I would would be at this joint two or three times a week, and in the best shape of my life. The games are all fast paced and high energy, but does it feel like a workout? Not at all, until you realize when you are so SHWEATY. It's like burst sprints mixed with body weights and maybe some yoga? I just know that I loved it in a way that I haven't loved physical activity since I was in my teens. The staff was all super friendly too. The perfect kind of friendly as well. Polite, informative, but not all fake high energy/chatty like your at a kids camp. It was nothing but good vibes. It was fairly busy when we went, which means we had to cycle through rooms pretty fast, but there are so many rooms! You can always go back for your favorites again later, and some of the ones that "looked" boring were actually the most fun for me. I was practically BEGGING them to give me a membership, but they don't do those... Yet? There was some discussion of some locations offering memberships as a trial run, and that it might become a thing nationwide. *fingers crossed* GO!

We be all up in Activate letting our inner kid out. It is a little pricey per person, but I'd say it's worth it. I would suggest booking online before going, but it's not a requirement, you may just have to wait a little if the time slots are unavailable.

The table was decorated beautifully with gorgeous china and place settings. Felt like a true Victorian afternoon tea experience. For the high tea, each person was permitted to select a tea of their choice. I chose the earl grey, which had a delicious flavor. They also brought out traditional snacks such as finger sandwiches (cucumber + cheese, ham & cheese, etc.), scones, and a variety of sweet treats. Every item was so tasty and the portions were generous. Service was good, efficient and friendly. They even have an outdoor play area for kids, and some days offer live music and other events. I would highly recommend this neighborhood spot!

The service was pretty neutral, nothing stands out there which is fine. The large room can get quite chatty and loud if you are looking for a quiet work spot, but only later on when I was leaving did I discover the other smaller rooms. The coffee was decent- mostly what stands out to me is the open food pantry that has my attention. What a lovely idea.

When we arrived to set up, the space was very clean, and the set up was perfect. There were three 12 foot tables with chairs for everyone. The bar at the entrance was perfect for the lunch buffet. Behind the bar was enough space for the drinks. They also had a kitchen if you needed extra work space. The staff at the Commune were all very professional, friendly and very responsive to any emails and phone calls. I highly recommend this space for any type of party , meeting, or workspace.

Although I don't mind going downtown every once in a while, I prefer not to. Having a place that is easy asseible from 183 is a major benefit. I don't need anything too fancy, but I do look for a few key benefits. Some of those being hot coffee, easy access to food options (they even have lunch drop), and quality businesses. Common Desk has it all. From the top notch staff, to the variety of business that are run out of there, it is simply a great place to work. Whether you are there to work on your own, or network with others, this place is great. They have plenty of shared desk space and call booths on both floors. I end up coming here at least once a week, and plan on continuing that schedule for quite a while.

This is one of the cutest boutique hotels I have been to in a long time. Lone Star Court is located…read morein the domain directly across from shopping, dining, and entertainment. The property reminds me of something that you would see in a movie somewhere in the southwest where people are just trying to hide out and not be found. It has such a cute rustic feel, with a lot of Texas flair. From the minute you arrive, you are given great service, greeted with amazing sense of essential oil, oils and leather with their signature fragrance in the form of a candle or room spray. For just $30 we were able to check in early at 1 o'clock instead of three which was great since I drove in town and had a lunch reservation, this gave us time to get unpacked and rest for a minute before heading over to the restaurant. They have lots of options in the mini bar, whether you are wanting an adult drink or just something cold and fizzy. When we arrived, they did give us a complementary bottle of water as well as a cold beer that I sat out on our little porch and enjoyed as the rain started to come down. I love all of the detail put into these rooms, it is such an amazing property, but I'll be honest there were way more kids than I expected, but it was Easter weekend so I guess a lot of families were traveling. I really wanted to get into the pool, but it was massively crowded. They have an outdoor bar as well as a café on the property that has live music and an enormous fireplace and plenty of big screen TVs to watch sports. Every evening they light up the fire pits and if you want to make s'mores, you can purchase a s'mores kit for just $10. They do not allow smoking in the rooms but allow you to smoke on the little patio outside your door. This has definitely become one of my favorite places to stay in Austin, which is difficult because there are so many amazing places in Austin, but Lone Star has definitely stepped into my top five. The young man that checked us in was great and he comped our valet parking! Truly phenomenal service. I'm looking forward to coming back!

This boutique hotel delivers a resort-inspired experience with an upscale twist and is known for its vintage charm with modern amenities. I arrived on Friday night and check-in was efficient, I had to provide my credit card for incidentals. I was given a choice of beer or bottled water upon check-in. The host directed me to my room location. There were several parking lots on the property and I was able to park close to the building with my room which was convenient. The provided a parking permit for complementary parking. The rooms offer a seamless blend of modern comfort and relaxed luxury and well-designed with a very open floor plan with a farmhouse door separating the restroom from the bedroom area. I was on the third floor. Each room had rocking chairs out front for a relaxing vibe. I especially appreciated how easy it was to step right outside and be in a communal space. it made connecting with others throughout the weekend effortless. One of the highlights was the courtyard area. Whether it was live music, lounging by the pool, or just gathering around in the evenings, the atmosphere felt lively without being overwhelming. It struck a nice balance between fun and laid-back. They had many communal areas set up with fire pits and a nice outdoor communal bar area where we held our silent disco. They also had a great event space where they hosted our group. The Water Trough bar and restaurant provided a breakfast and dinner dining experience. They also had an indoor bar area with live music for entertainment. Only issue was they did run out of food at dinner. The location in the Domain is also a positive. There are plenty of restaurants, bars, and shops within walking distance, so there was always something to do between retreat activities. If I had to point out a downside, it would be that the social atmosphere can get a bit noisy at times, especially if you're looking for a quiet stay. But for a group event or weekend getaway, it actually adds to the charm. We contributed to the noise with our outdoor kareoke set-up. Overall, Lone Star Court is a great choice if you're looking for something comfortable, stylish, and built for connection. Perfect for group retreats or anyone wanting a more lively, communal hotel experience.
