Very clean and well maintained. Hilton did and excellent job remodeling and bringing the property up to date. The only con I have is that there are no microwaves in the room. No one wants to go to the lobby to warm up food.

Nice clean hotel, staff was nice. The street outside can be a little loud there was a firetruck running down the road and for some reason the Star Spangled Banner started blasting from somewhere at 8am. For the money it’s nice and it’s close to a lot of things.

We enjoyed our stay! Nice, clean room; friendly staff; good location. It would be nice to have an outdoor space—gazebo, common area with chairs.

Fly through - great for one night

We were there just to sleep and catch plane the next morning. The bed was comfortable. The noise outside was minimal so we slept very well. The room itself was small so I wouldn't want to stay for an extended period of time (same for the lobby - small). I would stay again if I fly through again.

Just Ok..Not sure I would return

The room was very clean, with a nice TV and charging stations for phones which was helpful. Those were the pros. The only pros. Cons..the mini fridge barely kept our drinks cool. They were just above room temperature after being in the fridge the entire 2 nights of our stay. The hotel has 3 floors and there is only 1 microwave in the lobby to accommodate the entire hotel. The furniture in the room is setup to accommodate a microwave, they should strongly consider adding them to the rooms. The walls are paper thin. You hear EVERY SINGLE THING happeneing in hallway and the room next to yours. The hallway noise was loud and clear that it woke my fiance from his sleep. Our 1st night at the hotel the fire alarm went off well after midnight and startled us awake. We went downstairs to make sure there was no actual fire. The overnight Front Desk Clerk was borderline rude. We asked if everything was ok she shrugged and said "I don't know". The lights were still flashing all over the hotel. We asked if we should remain stay downstairs until the issue was resolved and she said "that's up to you, I can't tell you what to do. Probably just somebody smoking in a room". Since this a no smoking allowed hotel I would hope not. In any event I would hope that the staff would show a little more concern when a paying guest is concerned about a fire alarm going off in the middle of the night. Not a great overall experience. Not sure I would return without improvements.

The day desk clerk was sullen and seemed to be annoyed that she had to work on your behalf. The night clerk, Patricia, was her exact opposite: a genuinely nice person. Spend a little more money on front of house staff!
