Innkeeper Response
Of course ,we are never happy when our guests are unsatisfied . Park Lane Guest House is a unique property . Unlike a Band B that many are accustomed to , we offer private full service cottages that gear to the needs of the more independent traveler seeking an upscale home away from home. For clarifiction, our posted rates do not reflect the 15% hotel tax we are required to collect for the city and state. It appears that the amount may have been printed on the wrong line of your receipt. A final note, our little Olevia is approaching 6 months now and is becoming more of the perfect B and B mascot with each new day.

Innkeeper Response
We are sorry that you did not have a satisfactory experience at Park Lane B and B. Our property is unique, and unlike chain hotels, each guest cottage has its own distinct personality. At Park Lane B and B, we are committed to our guests’ satisfaction and encourage all of our potential guests to take the time to review the accommodations on our website for detailed descriptions and photos of each cottage. Since 1996, we have built our reputation as a "Green Urban Oasis", and the only Band B in town with a private swimming pool. We provide a high standard of service at rates competitively lower than any hotel in downtown Austin. Thank you for taking the time to share your comments with us. We do hope that you will visit us again.
