Disliked: Staff & service, amenities
No parking on site, $45 for valet. Door on street only opens to valet, lobby is on the third floor. Elevators do not work without a key, and don’t easily work with the key. Receptionist was speaking extremely quietly even when asked several times to speak up. Breakfast was old and dry, even as 8:00. The room doors also do not open easily. Pool was closed indefinitely. Bed and room were ok, view was nice. I don’t ordinarily leave reviews but this was not the quality I was expecting for a Hilton.

Liked: Cleanliness
The room was good—very clean, comfortable, and well-kept! Unfortunately, the pool and hot tub were unavailable during my stay, which was disappointing since that was one of the main reasons I chose this hotel. When I asked the front desk about a possible partial refund for the inconvenience, the staff member was rude and dismissive, saying, “I doubt you’re getting anything for it.” That interaction definitely left a bad impression. Other than that, my stay was fine overall.
