This property was on the low average side.
It is advertised with pictures of a very nice indoor pool. It is not there and has not been there for some time. We had spent a long day at the fair and we’re looking forward to swimming in the pool, there should have been notice on the website that the pool was no longer in service.

Not what I would expect from a Hilton. The grab and go items are very limited without any serious thought put into it. Whoever does the food service has no clue as to what a good snack or healthy and wholesome meals mean. For example, the lunch packs are cheese, eggs, melon and crackers. I mean what is that and who eats that? At the restaurant, there’s no option to take buffet items in a plate to your room, you have to order to-go. That must change. The parking situation is limited with the underground parking small and a small outdoor parking. This hotel needs to put some effort into their service. That is NOT what you expect from a Hilton in a major city in America.

It is a decent location for us.
The building itself is extremly outdated.
The windows provide no sound barrier.
The carpet and curtains have been around way to long.
The bathroom was a decent size.
Needs better placement of light switches and outlets.
