Here’s a sweeps to a place I have actually seen firsthand, The San Jose Hotel, a retrofitted motor court on Austin’s hip-dee-doo South Congress Avenue. I was staying at a nearby B&B, the name of which I’ve forgotten, after having spent a few days in the gloriously centering Hill Country. The San Jose Hotel caught my eye as I explored the neighborhood (I vaguely recall coming close to purchasing a painting in one of the galleries, something very Southwestern, but then realized it would blow my travel budget for the indefinite future. Travel trumps art again.) I decided on the spot that if I ever went back to Austin, this is where I’d stay. There was something so sui generis cool about the place, in the best sense of the words. So here’s a sweeps, sponsored by Fossil, for three nights at yours and possibly mine truly.
