Decent stay
The hotel needs repairs in the hallwsys. There was a leak in the hallway and walls need to be painted. The bathroom and room was nice and the bed was extremely comfortable. One door handle was broken but it was repaired the next day. The garden and lake views at night were great.

We were given rooms but the doors were not opening. The IT guy even couldn’t fix it so we had to find another room still same issue. The hot tab was closed. My family wanted yo use it after swimming but it was closed earlier in the evening hrs, that is not good. The spa was also closed. The spa doesn’t provide sauna or steam. I would never book again at this hotel.

Fix the compressor noise to zero/0!!
Everything was very nice EXCEPT for the air conditioning compressor! It was so loud, kicked on and off often, loudly, that we turned off the system so we could sleep! Seriously, terrible for what we expected from a Hilton, much less one so upscale.
