This property is filthy and run down. Hilton should be ashamed and embarrassed to have their name on the property. It’s almost like they have abandoned ship and are unwilling to invest in upgrades that are urgently needed. A brand new Hyatt Place is opening as part of the Block Five development and Alex Johnson appears to have thrown in the towel. Having owned a commercial cleaning business for 35 years, I observed a couple of the housekeeping staff in lobby common areas. They are extremely poorly trained, unsupervised, unmotivated, and ill -equipped. We WILL NEVER return to this property even though we like the downtown location and it is the only 3-4 star property in town - although it should not be above 1 star in our opinion. Even the door to our room felt insecure with a gap of light coming through. A firm shoulder against the door would easily force it open. Never Again!
