The staff here are simply incredible - they are always on hand to help, and nothing is too much trouble for them.

“I actually deleted a previous review so I could write this one.

I stayed at Kasa Haus on 6th Street a couple of weeks ago while traveling for work, and I want to give a huge shout out to Calvin.

To be completely honest, I was exhausted. I had been traveling, working, and Austin was my final stop. I ran into a hiccup during my stay and was frustrated more by the principle of the situation than the situation itself. Looking back, I know I was carrying a lot of that exhaustion with me.

What stood out was Calvin.

He genuinely listened. He genuinely cared. He never made me feel dismissed, rushed, or like I was just another guest. Even when I was probably not the easiest person to deal with, he remained professional, patient, and committed to making things right.

The reality is that the issue itself eventually became secondary. What mattered was knowing that someone actually cared enough to listen and wanted to help. That level of hospitality is rare, and Calvin delivered it effortlessly.

I really want to thank him personally. Calvin, if you happen to read this, thank you. You are one of a kind. You have the qualities that great leaders are made of, and I truly hope your career takes you far. You have what it takes.

Because of your professionalism, your patience, and your willingness to step up, you turned me into a believer. I would gladly stay here again and look forward to booking with Kasa in the future.

Thank you for reminding me that great customer service is not about perfection. It is about how people show up when something does not go according to plan. You showed up, and it made all the difference.“

“My friends and I went tonight for the first time to celebrate a friends birthday. The atmosphere was exquisite, staff was impeccable, food was amazing and the Manager Elliot was so awesome!!! For the dining experience we had, they should be charging 2-3x more for their food and we would gladly pay it. It is a small restaurant so reservations are needed to make sure they have availability. I highly recommend The Carillon Restaurant, it’s truly a gem. We will be back very soon 😋“
