Serene
Love this place, little more expensive than other places, but it is so quiet and serene there. We have stayed here several times and always enjoyed the peace and quiet. Brushy creek off our deck and birds flitting all over.

When you stay it is absolutely amazing. The staff are super friendly and the check in process was ok. But overall this place is amazing. If I could give 10 stars I definitely would. 2 blocks away from downtown round rock.

Enjoyed our overnight!
Room was very clean, comfortable & quiet.
Front desk & bar personnel (Myra & Tom) were friendly, accommodating & informative ☺️
Recommendation to spend time in nearby Georgetown was a good one 😉

Everything was good, the bar was great, but when we got back to the room, there were no waters in the mini fridge. Not sure I’ve ever stayed at a hotel that didn’t have waters in the mini fridge.

We had a gymnastics meet at Kalahari but didn’t want to stay there so I found this hidden gem 5 minutes away and it was the cutest little getaway. Very clean, decorated so cute and the history behind the place was intriguing. My girls loved the cows coming to drink the water right outside the balcony and just the serenity of being outside. It was so close to everything, just the perfect location! We will be back!

This is a little treasure to stay at. I come with friends to hang out and enjoy the area, and it's great for a mini getaway with my partner. It's got a lot of charm, and the staff is so welcoming!! The drinks are great, too!

It was amazing, as always! The staff went above and beyond at the hotel and the bar to make my stay comfortable and memorable. Every time I stay at The Ruby, which is often, I feel like I’m coming home.
