I requested a quiet location for my room. Instead, on my floor was a large group of teenagers that were yelling, talking loudly in the hall until way after midnight. I had to call the front desk twice to ask them to please tell them to be quiet. The cabinet door under the tv with the safe in it, the door was broken and just fell open on its own. The sink in the bathroom backed up and was very slow to drain each time I used it. The tissues ran out after I used a couple, so those were empty. There were no stirrers for the coffee in the morning. NOT a good experience for a Hilton property. Very dissatisfied.

Surprised Hilton allows this
Room had Mold and Mildew Smell so strong unable to sleep. Called Front Desk Mngt, etc 3-4x with no response. Finally the second night after demanding to speak with Manager, we were moved to a healthier room as even when the manager entered the room they had difficulty with odor. After relocating us at 10pm to another room we were advised we would have room credited and breakfast due to situation. This hotel didn't make good on either one. I never complaim but this was terrible

Paid $750 for a room and to find it was handicap accessible with a bench in the shower. We were not given an option and had to make do. Will not be making reservations through Expedia again, rather make your reservation directly with the hotel property.

Both sets of queen sheets were stained and gross. The tub had residue in it. There were many hairs from the previous guest in the sink and on the counter. It looked Like it hadn’t been cleaned in the turn over. The front desk and maintenance were very friendly

There was a straw wrapper on the hall floor that remained for the entire stay. The wall in our room was swollen with water and both the sink and bath drained very slowly. Many menu items were unavailable. Overall a property in decline (we had been there before and it was much better).
