    If you're considering staying here, don't book the Queen. It's too noisy, near the elevator, and constantly louder than a train. I mean the noise from the elevator system.

    Dont do it. Do not stay there. Even though its right next ro the train station, the hotel sucks! It feels like a motel and a very old and expensive one and there is no reason for it. The prking costs another FIFTY DOLLAR A DAY wth?! And there is nowhere else to park. Also its in a BAD neighborhood so when you get out of the hotel you are surrounded by shady ppl. One of these people was bleeding really bad and cops showed up. People come out of the train station like zombies so its not a fun place and its much too pricey. I do not understand why they call it hilton. Its not a hilton. I have been in a Hilton hotel its does NOT look and feel like it.

    Arrived very late and booked a room last minute as my hotel i had booked with lost my reservation. Staff at check in was lovely, patient, and incredibly helpful with my flustered and frustrated self. Room was clean, bed was comfortable. Checkout was a breeze, and the staff was so friendly and helpful. Got me to the train station easily and even gave me a ticket for free. Will definitely be staying here again next time I'm up this way.

    This was not a place I would have chosen. I normally like Double Tree. I was traveling and chose a place close by to stay the night and it took me too the wrong place 30 mins away. We had to turn around and travel back 30 mins. The maps had taken us to the next town where there was another Double Tree. There was no exchanges or dealings because it was a third-party company. These are the kinks that need to be worked out when they allow these deals to be made.

    On October 31st, at around 6:00 a.m., I arrived late at the hotel, and my brother had the room key. The person working at the front desk at that time asked me for the key, but even after I explained that my brother had it and that I was also a guest, she still asked me to leave the hotel. I believe this situation was unfair and unprofessional. The staff should be properly trained to ask the right questions and verify the information before taking such an extreme measure. I don’t think it’s right that, as a registered guest, I was asked to leave the hotel without a proper review of the circumstances.
