It's not a fake, but it's gotten some mixed reviews [1] (thus the $60/night)
and it's 3.1mi away from the conference venue so you might need to take
a bus or something. The hotel is on the opposite side of IH-35 and US-290,
so I don't know how feasible walking will be. Google says it's
over an hour walk (which might not be desirable in June in Texas).

Perhaps some Austin-folks can comment on the bus system there;
I've not ever had an occasion to use it.
