The hotel overall was great but we arrived later in the evening and they gave our room away even though I checked in on the app, let them know I would be arriving later, and selected my room in the Hilton app. We were given another room but it did not meet our accommodation needs. Three people had to sleep in a king bed even though we booked two queens.

Not Great
We stayed here 1 time earlier in the week and it was great. Unfortunately, the second time was not that great. I specifically booked a room that I knew would sleep 3 people (my parents and myself) and had a roll in shower for my mother who is disabled and in a wheelchair. When I arrived for checking around 9pm, they told me that the room I booked was not available. We got stuck in a room with 1 bed and no partial refund for the mess up. I had to have a roll away bed brought in which barely fit in the room. I was told that this was still a handicap accessible room, but it definitely was not. Yes, there was a roll in shower, but the bed was not lowered; my mom was not able to get into the bed as it was too high for her. My dad and I had to lift her in and out of the bed which was not ideal and dangerous.

Waffles were fantastic, Hotel not so much !!
Entered room - it was 57 degrees , maintenance came but room never warmed up over 66. After dropping daughter off at practice (5am) returning to room to find water dripping from vent , called maintenance again - he had no clue and kept saying he didn’t know what was wrong. Finally asked for different room , they gave us smaller room since we just needed to shower and get girls ready for half time show. Not once did front desk apologize, nor did they honor our included breakfast rate. The restaurant manager is the only reason I would return , she made it right and gave us our breakfast for free and let me tell you that was the best breakfast we have had!!try the waffles - they won’t disappoint !! Stephanie - you turned our day around !! She is the ONLY reason we would consider staying here again !
