Parking nor Breakfast included
The hotel was good for the most part. We didn’t have issues that other reviewers did but we did miss two major details. Parking is an additional cost, $33 per night at the time of this writing. This is also my fault for not properly researching, but I’m writing this to warn others like myself who assumed a continental breakfast would be complimentary. Not only is it pricey but it’s also a basic breakfast. Outside of those two things, the hotel was fine. I had a 4 night stay and housekeeping only cleaned our room once. I don’t understand how that happens especially when we were out of the room all day every day. The walls were a bit thin if that’s a concern.

Room smelled. Much of the rest of the property smelled, e.g. the gym. Particularly disappointed that the hotel charges for parking - it was in the fine print when I booked, but not obvious; and when I asked if I needed to register the license plate of the rental at the front desk the concierge gave me a yellow slip with "$33 / day" in small print, while neglecting to mention it.

Nasty place. As soon as we entered the room, everyone got a strong scent of mold. The scent was so strong that it was obvious for all of us but obviously, we failed to spot the location. We told the front desk about it and they said there is nothing they can do because room is fully booked which may be true but I found it very hard to believe because we book for Thursday and Friday, 2 nights, which is not the weekend and it was the last week of August which is not the prime summer vacation time but I can't prove anything on my end. The most disgusting part of the stay was that it was the last day when we were packing our stuff and making sure that we did not leave anything behind.. and then we spotted the big mold on the lower end of the bed sheet!!!! We asked the room to be cleaned after first night but obviously bed sheet was not changed or cleaned. Because of the name Hilton, we had some sort of expectation but never going to stay every again.

The beds were comftarble how ever the room smell really bad and we had to deal with a damage bathroom door . Room service was interesting . As I was taking the kids to the pool the front desk lady and the person taking the food were making uncomfortable comments about the guest receiving the room service . Little did they know that the room service was for my husband and my kids . I normally don’t make comments but these individuals almost took our drinks and food among them. They made commemts about how much it was spent in room service and making assumptions about the payments . The room service had already being charged on my card and we were probably profile for our color . Very poor service .

One of the reasons for booking this location was due to the site saying breakfast was included. When we had breakfast it was $22 per person(5) and they told me it wasnt included. Hotel did nothing to try and fix the situation they simply said contact Expedia

Not worth the price. Party hotel.
We stayed for 3x nights for work / an event I had to attend nearby. The rooms were OK. It was a good size for the king suite, however I don't think it was worth the price. All in, I paid over $300/night. Our tooms had a lingering smell of cigarettes and even some burns on the carpet. The water pressure was horrible and a terrible smell came up from the pipes occasionally. We had new neighbors nightly that were up yelling, cursing & partying. It was awful. I complained to the front desk after the first night of lost sleep, who told me that they were checking out so it would be better. Unfortunately, more rowdy guests arrived and the problem repeated itself. Staff were all friendly but overall our experience was sadly mediocre. I won't stay here again.
