The mirror in mine and my sisters bathroom had several black smoky smears on them. The shower had hair on the ceiling and overall the room was quite disgusting. There are two elevators and only one worked after our second trip downstairs. The gal at checkin was walking around and we waited over five minutes for someone to come tell us that "it'll be a minute" then she was short with us when we got there. Overall, this hotel left much to be desired with the only benefit being the location.

We had reserved a room with a King Bed through Hotels.com for one night. When we arrived, the host at the desk gave us an ADA room. When we asked to be moved to a non-ADA room, the type of room we requested, he told us he was unable to do so and that hotels.com sends their information to Hilton hotels specifically requesting ADA, regardless of what the user requested. When I showed him our reservation, the front desk host stated there weren't any more rooms available as they were booked solid. During our short stay, we never saw another hotel guest - not in the elevators nor in the lobby. We saw three people in the lobby bar that evening, but that was it. It happened that the same person was at the front desk when we checked out and he asked us how our stay was. When I told him that we doubted the hotel was booked as he had stated and that we suspected he was being untruthful, he stated that he was sorry that there weren't more people in the lobby to show us how many people were staying there. I told him he didn't have to be a jerk and that this is no way to treat a customer who just spent a fair amount of money for a type of room they didn't reserve. I will never stay at that Hilton again.

Property looks nice, but our room had a pretty foul smell once we changed the A/C from ice-age cold to 70 degrees. Just didn’t match the presentation of the overall property but not noticeable until into the night once room warmed up just a bit.

The parking is not as good as it could be. All of the reserved spots make it difficult to find a spot when its busy. The elevators are insanely slow.

I stay every year!
I stay here once a year. It’s clean, and the staff’s always nice and helpful. The rooms have fridges and microwaves. But the best part is the location. Walkable to so many bars, restaurants, coffee shops, and even a large grocery store. There’s a river walk/bike path right across the street that is cool to stroll on. The one down side is that the pool is really small.

Frustrations
Overall it was good in the aspect of cleanliness it was an inconvenience getting around as we didn’t have keys. We also decided on this hotel due to the pool and hot tub and the hot tub was closed. The pool was so cold we couldn’t stay in it long our babies lips turned blue.
