Never again

Stay started off bad and never improved. The first room they gave me had something on the bed that should not have been there. The second room was better until we showered. Every time we went in the bathroom we both started sneezing. So glad the stay is over and the sneezing and running nose is over. Parking is awful and having 2 hotels connected is not a good look. The heat in the room did its own thing and wouldn’t work using the thermostat on the wall. Finally I decided to try just using the unit and that worked. If you want quiet at night don’t stay here as were heard every car that drove past this hotel.

King on the Hown 2 Suotes was wonderfully helpful at check-in. Crystal was extremely curt, rude and needs to recheck her tone with customers. Expedia did not show us staying at a dual property. Our reservations were stated for Hilton Garden. Crystal was quick to rudely under explain that we were in the wrong place. She told us very little except to rip our heads off. It was inappropriate. My suggestion for your property is to list each dual side separately. The Home 2 Suites representative was calm and professional and explained about the dual property. We have never stayed in a dual hotel property’s The room was under supplied. We were given two bath towels, one washcloth and one hand towel. We did not have an enough toilet paper. The bathroom door had rot on in it and the door stopper was close to detaching and scraped the floor. We did not have an ice bucket and every time we went down to ask for one, none one was at the desk. I refused to ask Crystal on the other side because she was so rude previously. The furniture was uncomfortable and worn. For what we paid and for being loyal Hilton brand customers, this property was a huge disappointment. We won’t book here again. I would like to reiterate that King on the Home 2 Suites side of the property was great. He was calm, professional and spoke to us with respect and kindness. Please let him know that his demeanor was invaluable. King is 5/5 all the way. The rest of your property and staff is maybe 2/5, sadly.

It is so loud in and around the property. I stayed 3 nights and each night there was racing with cars with blast pipes for several hours. There is no insulation from the outside noise or between rooms. My neighbors were just talking and I could not only hear them but could understand every word.

Decent, needs some maintenance

Room was clean, hotel was a bit confusing as there were 2 hotels in one? Hilton and Home 2. My mother’s room had a leaking toilet and my toilet had a constant dripping.

No hot water!

The hotel is clean, the rooms and lobby. It even smelled fresh. But after a 10 hour car ride and looking forward to a hot shower. Very disappointed to find out there was no hot water. This was not told when checking in and when I went to the front desk, they were like “yeah, we have received some complaints” and I felt I was dismissed. While this is my 6th time staying in the area to see my USC student. This is the worst place I have stayed. Also, you need to pay for breaks and it’s at a very high premium price. I will go back to the other hotel that I have stayed the other 5 times even tho it’s 10 minutes away. This place is not worth the extra cost.
