Suite not worth it
I chose a 1 bedroom suite. The room was definitely not worth it. The living room was dark and unwelcoming. There was no window or rug; and only one piece of artwork on a corner wall. Definitely not a room we wanted to spend time in. The bedroom portion, down a narrow hallway, was extremely small with one tiny window that did not provide light to the living room. The “king” size bed was more like a queen. The left side of the bed didn’t have a full size nightstand; and had no plugs to charge devices. Overall, I’d never book a suite in this hotel again. I’ll be going back to The Hampton Inn across the highway… In addition the hot was out of order the entire visit; and the banquet doors were not locked at night; so anyone could have simply walked into the property.
Tiny nightstand. No storage or electricity

Check in was easy. We were given water bottles. Our room was clean but we noticed mold in the bathroom. No exhaust fan in the bathroom. Complimentary coffee but breakfast is a charge. For a Hilton I felt the place had run- down areas .
