    This particular Hilton is pretty average and doesn’t go above and beyond. My wake up call failed during my stay.

    The worst hotel experience I've ever encountered. The sliding door/ balcony outside of the bedroom area wasnt even for our use,it was accessible to the guests in the room next door who could then stand outside and see directly into OUR bedding area. The sliding door / balcony access from the living room area, which WAS ours had been damaged and wasnt able to be secured, so it remained unlocked our entire visit. There was blood on the sheets at the foot of the bed, lamps with no bulbs, garbage cans had zero bags & water pressure in the shower was non-existent. Breakfast was an additional $18 per person and parking was $135 ($100 of it being a deposit) for twi nights. Our last evening there the fire alarms in the building activated and when we called the front desk to inquire about it we received no answer on multiple attempts. After going down 6 flights of stairs ans employee finally informed us that it was a false alarm and we were told to go back to our room. Fire department eventually showed up and solved whatever issue was going on so the alarm could be deactivated. I will not return to a Hilton Hotel ever again.
