The check in was fantastic, quick and easy. I like the room it was very clean
and everything was in order. The only thing that I did not like was their breakfast. We paid ahead for it 15$ per person. But the coffee was absolutely terrible and
The person who sat outside the door seemed to be mostly disagreeable when asked a question or needed to give help. Some of the food items were stale and lacked any flavor. I would not recommend eating breakfast there and there's a place right across the street that looks like it might take breakfast a little more seriously, especially when it's paid for.

Great room. Excellent value. One problem is that the design of the shower is such that you have to be under the shower when you turn on the water. That you get wet before the water warms up. Fortunately, the water warms up extremely quickly.
The mattress and the pillows were extremely comfortable.
The chocolate chip cookies that are included in the price of the room are delicious. The TV is very large.

Hilton needs to clean up this property in a major way. The main floor is dirty and under pretty significant construction. They had the audacity to charge us $15 for breakfast which was inedible. On top of that, the elevator near our room was not functioning so we had to walk FAR in order to get to an elevator - wonder what the fire department would say about that. Service was marginal - when and if there was someone at the front desk. The rooms are ‘remodeled’ which helped but the doors and floors are all very dirty. Would never stay here again. Hilton has other, better properties. I’m an AMEX Hilton rewards member. No water offered either.

3 night stay: the rooms were dirty (mold under the faucets, dirty shower with hair in the tile and in the bedsheets). The floors were dirty and did not seem to have been vacuumed. The fitness center was dirty as well. The "window" in my room opened to the lobby area, not outside, and the noise was very disruptive - all the walls are very thin. The breakfast was very mediocre. The staff were helpful though.

I only stay Hilton hotels and the main reason why is so I can use the Peloton. The advertised a room that had a peloton Ami thought well that’s exciting. Only to get the room and it’s not working and when I brought it to the staffs attention they literally knew and from my lens didn’t care. Hotel was clean and it’s in a great area however won’t be staying there again. I’m diamond member and because of the last 4 stays I’ve had I’m strongly considering staying elsewhere in the future. Like how Peleton got a contract with yall and you’re not even fulfilling your obligation to have the equipment working. It’s annoying.
