Not on par with Hilton

Bedspread had stains, bathroom tub full of small curly hairs, the shower dispensers were not connected and sitting on the edge of the tub with one completely empty. We received towels but the beds were not made. The door latch did not work unless you picked up on the door to align it. The bathroom door scrapped across the floor. We stayed three nights and every night we had to have our room keys remade. By the third night we just stopped at the front desk to just get them remade before even trying. The breakfast was the typical hotel style breakfast but it took them 20 minutes to refill. Front desk was polite and nice. It’s obvious that no upkeep is happening. Don’t know how they keep the Hilton name.

Disliked: Cleanliness
The room seemed like it was not made up. The sheets were wrinkled and not tucked in. There were crumbs on the carpet. The products that were supposed to be mounted on the shower wall were scattered around the bathroom. There was hair in the shower. The surfaces were covered in dust. On top of that, the noise from the highway kept me up all night.

We checked in and received room keys. When we got to the room, we found out it was someone else’s room. All of their belongings were in room. On day 2, we left to go out and about, we returned to find our room key cards did not work. I had to go back down to front desk. I was then informed we needed to stop at the desk daily to have them update cards. We were not told this at check in
