The stay was ok the beds was hard and the breakfast was not worth the prices nor lunch and dinner it was not complementary the rooms did have air conditioning but outside of the room’s lobby sitting area and dining area was very hot over crowded around this time and beware they accept dogs which I think when they accept pets take up all carpet also if a guess is bitten from a pet who is responsible the hotel and owner will be sued

Just average

The room was clean. The mattress was old and needed to be replaced. The showerhead was old and slow. The ac unit was very noisy. I expected a better experience with Hilton, but this place was just average.

This was a tough one. Thought we got a good deal on a Hilton property. Instead, got to the room and the lock to the door was busted and had to lug all our stuff back down to the front desk. Second, our non-smoking hall was ripe w/ a weed smell equal to a frat house. Third, no continental breakfast, thought this was a standard at Hiltons. Lastly and the worst! The AC unit would make a horrible grinding noise ever so often. However, tired from the trip and already having to lug our stuff back to the front desk once, decided to endure it rather then repack and relocate. Wellll, that was a mistake, got no sleep. All of those things in addition to liquids on the floor of the elevator, smashed/broken elevator buttons, dirty and outdated rooms…let’s just say this wasn’t great.

One of the nicest places my daughter and I have found to stop for a night to break up a long trip. The front desk staff is so pleasant and they remembered us from our previous visit a month before. The rooms are clean and even smell good! The beds are comfortable. The appliances work (refrigerator, microwave). The AC kept us cool on a hot July night. One small thing that could have been better in the room was the water pressure in the shower - when turned to the warm side, it diminished to a trickle. Outside of the room, the facility is also well-maintained. There's a little shop right next to the front desk that sells food items (mostly snacks and drinks). A typical breakfast is available in the morning. I didn't use the gym, so I can't comment on that, but there was enough space in my room to do yoga. A suggestion for improvement outside of the rooms would be to align the elevators. The floor of the elevator wasn't quite level with the hallway floor, making it a little difficult to maneuver the luggage trolley. Overall, an excellent place to stay for a very reasonable cost. We appreciated a nice place to rest after many hours on the road.

The staff at the Hilton Garden was Exceptional! Flawless checkin / checkout, wonderful & welcoming breakfast staff, lovely & accommodating people. Facility was clean & they were working on painting the exterior. The 2nd floor was pretty hot & humid in the hallways, but our room stayed nice & cool. Great place for us to stay on the go & we are pleased.
