3 Star but great value!

Room next to main hallway was incredibly noisy and very hard to sleep! The pillows were the absolute worst. The mini fridge did not have the typical small freezer top to put small items. The coffee machine was broken. The room had a musty smell almost like someone had previously smoked in it. Pool was not heated either. Definitely the lowest quality Hilton I have ever stayed at.

For the most part this hotel is not bad but Hilton has an overall problem in general. They charge for every extra amenity they offer. From the $3 bottled water in the rooms to a breakfast that is expensive, really really limited and just disappointing. I can stay at a Fairfield Inn (Marriott International) for the same price, the hotels are usually nicer, have more free to lower priced amenities and a breakfast that is outstanding and comes with the stay. We recently stayed at an Embassy Suite which is also owned by Hilton and it was horrible (major maintenance issues). Frankly, in my humble opinion, Hilton truly needs to wake up, step up their game and put more focus into their customers and property needs.

The people at the front desk are always so rude - like we’re bothering them when we get there. Info provided was wrong about their own property. And the ceiling was falling part In the breakfast room we had for our group - embarrassing. Not going to stay here moving forward. This property has been on the decline over the years. I’ve been coming for 7 years for an event and it was just terrible this last time.

Super friendly and helpful staff. Hotel bar and food service is cool. You can hear people talking and walking/ running though the walls but not a deal breaker. Modern looking, huge shower for more than one. 😉 Great experience. Would stay here again if in the area.

All in all, it was not a bad experience. I just don’t like the fact that it’s the only hotel chain out of the Hilton Garden does not give the continental breakfast and actually charge you for it.
