The staff were very friendly, and they recommended some great places to eat, but I was very disappointed that the rooms didn't have microwaves, but they had sinks and refrigerators, that truly didn't make any sense. We did enjoy the breakfast (Yogurt especially). But I will say Hilton the rooms need microwave, after a long ride or day of site seeing we want to relax, reheat our food without going in the lobby (comfortable).

Our first impression of the room was very nice and neat clean, modern not bad smell. Second night we have a knock on our door at 11:30 PM. Apparently, the front desk dark skin guy with glasses said that our tv was too loud.We didn't realize it, but we turn it down.No problem. What we didn't like was his rude attitude. He need to work on his customers service attitude. The rest of the the employees who were friendly. I know they're not the swimming pool was empty.They have a very tiny gym. We did not have any breakfast.But the breakfast area looks neat and clean and modern. It's a whole tail is eleven minutes from the downtown which makes the location perfect. Overall, our experience was good minor the incident that night.

Disliked: Cleanliness
The front desk staff was especially friendly and professional. The room had not been vacuumed or mopped. I saw sparkly things all over the floor, so I bent down to see what it was and unfortunately saw bundles of hair and dust on the floor as well. Between the bed and nightstand there were drops of liquid on the floor that had not been cleaned up. It was late, so I just made sure to keep my socks on until I left.

Loved seeing my name on the TV screen when we arrived. The front desk was great emailing if we needed anything. The breakfast could have been better, were out of coffee and took awhile to get more. Not much of a selection but that was fine.

Clean rating was based on cleaning services everyday. I’d do see on the door it’s every other day trash and towels but I do feel hotels should make bed, lightly clean, trash, and new towels and toilet paper everyday. Otherwise, great stay!
