Business trip and the hotel was in a central location and close to all. I walked away from the bar as I was trying to order and the delay was too much to get the bartender’s attention. There was no order

Disliked: Staff & service, amenities
Checking in took 30 minutes with one guest ahead of me. Was promised a roll away and did not get one, my child slept on the floor, no offer to accommodate with a second room. Stairs do not go to lobby, stop at second floor and then outside. Elevators were a nightmare, waited 15 minutes to get to the 10th floor. No option for stairs until you got to floor two. Wasn’t told there was a parking fee until a deduction from our account two days later. $15 for breakfast!! Breakfast should be included at these rates. Limited evening dining in the area. Husband fixed the toilet seat. Flickering lightbulbs. Used hair rubber bands in room.Room was like a sauna unless the window was open, in February. Will not stay again. Reached out to Hilton and filed a case. No reply yet.

The service was horrible. The room was dirty. It looked like they haven’t been clean in weeks. Paint was falling off of the ceilings. There was no towels for the pool when X they never provided them. I asked for more bath towels. I didn’t get it to a hour before we was checking out the next day..

Paying For The Location

My stay was okay. It was important to me that I was in walking distance of where I needed to go and it was. Food in the restaurant was excellent. However, one of the reasons I chose this hotel was it said it had room service, and room service was unavailable. Also, the desk staff was pretty unfriendly and acted annoyed if you asked them anything. Also they hit me for a $250 amenities charge for “incidentals” which was what, exactly? I had two free 16 Oz bottles of water, was that $250? Nothing in this hotel was free. You even had to pay for parking, and breakfast, so I had no clue what was $250 on top of the $1295 I had already paid.

The entire hotel experience was terrible from the start. The hotel lobby was dated, and the revolving entry door was broken and out of service. Our room was horrible. There are marks on the walls, a loose toilet seat, peeling ceiling paint, toothpaste in the bathroom sink, and marks/stains on the counters in the bedroom. We left and booked a room across the street at the Renaissance Hotel. Expedia is unwilling to refund our payment. It's a terrible experience.

Hilton charged $30 per person for the worst breakfast ever. I had better free food at a Holiday Inn Express. The manager did reverse the charge but it shouldn't have come to that. The bathroom had rust in the tub and the vents were filthy. The tv had limited channels. The parking was ok but not very clean, even for a parking garage.
