Desk Clerk

Check in 3:45p Deepthi couldn’t check us in. The room wasn’t ready, so I was to return after 4pm. Clerk at 4:10p did say our assigned room (3rd floor) was not ready but if I would consider the second floor. Yes I did. Check out: we wanted to leave early knowing I would still be charged for the 3rd night. At 10:50p I went to the desk for check out, but was told we can’t be checked out until morning. I clearly understood of paying the full fee and even the last day parking fee. Deepthi, the clerk, again said she couldn’t process the check out. How so? Yet she took my key cards. I said I should be receiving some email about my departure if she can’t due the process. I need proof to show the times and I don’t end up with other charges. Now as I am driving out, I see my email. How is it your desk clerk can’t check a person out? I called the morning to confirm my check out was done and the gentleman said he would do it. I still didn’t get an email. Now I am waiting on my credit card to see the amount The hotel, valet were friendly. The room had spots here & there that were dirty. Eco friendly yes. Walking distance to the harbor. The breakfast diner was 8/10, pricey but okay. My feud was with checking out & it didn’t help that the same first encounter clerk was no help. Ask Victor who was there to witness. So Hilton Garden Inn please contact me for if you want more details. I will definitely be contacting back for final fees. I am only one customer, right, but reviews carry.

Very Disappointed Hilton!

Upon arrival, to checking in which took 4 hours to get into my two conjoining rooms… which was after the 4pm check in our was a complete nightmare. Was hands-down horrible customer service to getting in our room which keys did not work. Had to come down three times to get new keys to walk into two rooms that smelled like dog and had to call housekeeping to vacuum the room because of dog food that was not cleaned up. I had three senior citizens with me which were sleeping in your lobby as we were awaiting one extra room to be cleaned .I was basically lied to for three hours that it the conjoined room just needed to be inspectedinspected when in essence it needed to be clean, which it was never thoroughly cleaned Very disappointed and will not be going back to this location again. Trust and believe I will be in contact with the regional manager of this location. Kudos to the valet and bell hop staff… the front desk and housekeeping need a little more training in regards to customer service and a little less socializing amongst each other. I would be more than happy to discuss this with a Hilton representative as I too am in the industry and expect much more out of the Hilton.

The rooms are spacious, clean and quiet. The food was outstanding both in the choice of dishes and quality of them. The staff are very professional and friendly. Walking through the campground to the beach was not what I expected. I thought it would be a park/ parking lot. It was farther to go that way but I felt awkward walking alone through the campground.

I could do a better research to make sure I know where exactly is located. Very close to the beach but surrounded by a highway and train tracks with a very loud noises . The size of the rooms are average from any hotels. But the biggest downside is how expensive is parking . I fault for not checking the parking available note but almost $400 on just parking for a week I think is a bit excessive. So I learned next time I will check on that first .
