We have stayed at this hotel many times. There are generally two room sizes. What I consider is a normal size room and a microsized room that is barely big enough to hold two queens, nightstand, table, desk that doesn't really fit, and a minifridge. It has a mini-bathroom that you can't even sit on the toilet without hitting the toilet paper roll holder so you have to sit a little sideways. The cost was $329 with no food. Lucky us, it included two bottles of water. This rate goes up anytime they are 90% booked or events. Yes, this price was for the micro-room too.
Seriously, way overpriced for what you get. The full rooms are more comfortable but this place is really the only thing on or near campus. Parents taking kids to school or visiting that need to be close are really just set up to spend way to much because they are the only hotel game. By the time you pay for the room, food (which is a decent restaurant by the way), a dimly lit parking garage with only compact parking spaces and door ding poles almost every 2-4 spaces, elevators not working, and zero amenities, it is just a lot for a quick weekend visit. I really wish we had other options that were close and safe.
We have always experienced clean rooms here, comfortable beds, and courteous staff, but after traveling around the world and staying in many hotels and motels, to include many Hiltons and Hyatts, this one needs to absolutely readjust prices. I have had far better positive experiences at Holiday Inns, Best Western, La Quinta Inn, and the list goes on.
This is a hotel that tries really hard to be a 4 star Hilton, but this one really can be a Hilton only in name. Even the lobby is cold and sterile like the Loft franchise with less pizzazz. Online booking looks like you can book it for $181 with taxes, but we have never seen this price and we have been there many times. So, get ready to pay Hilton 4 star prices but watch out for the 2-3 star micro-room and parking garage shakedown.

We were in town for my nephews graduation, and it was our first time staying at this Hilton establishment. The staff was very accomdating. We have an oversized vehicle that could not use the hotel garage, but the staff provided us a pass that allowed us to park in the loading dock for the night, in addition, because we were continuing with our travel we required a document to be delivered via FEDEX, and the staff was able to sign for our document and had it waiting for us upon check-in. We appreciate the staffs professionalism, and help with our two special situations. We would stay again and recommend to our friends and family!

While the parking garage is my least favorite one I've ever been to, everything else about this hotel was absolutely incredible! The lobby encouraged relaxation and human connection, there was a beautiful courtyard, an area paying homage to the university, a nice restaurant on site, the room was very accommodating, and the bed felt like I was sleeping in the clouds. My absolute favorite part of staying was the staff on site. I was greeted by S.J. who treated me so kindly, and was so welcoming. He really went above and beyond to make me feel at home. I don't remember the names of everyone else who assisted me, but the entire staff were so polite and professional, it was really nice to see, as you don't get that type of service everywhere!
