Decently cleaned. Comfortable accommodations. 4 stars only because I feel like it’s understaffed in the evenings. There was no more towels left at the pool so we had to walk back to our rooms wet. When I checked in after 6 pm I had to wait a significant amount of time before the front desk person returned. The staff itself was friendly and accommodating.

We have stayed at this property several times. We get a room that is accessible due to some disabilities my has, however this time the seat for the accessible shower had been removed, even though it was advertised to have the seat and the picture showed the shower to have a seat. This created a situation where the shower was useless to my wife.

Good hotel - GREAT staff!

This is a good hotel with great people. The facilities are better than most at this price point. The rooms are clean, newly painted and relatively quiet. I had some issues with the TV remote, but that's a minor issue. There is a gym, and pool and half-court basket ball. The breakfast was fine with what I've come to expect from these types of stays: scrambled egg, sausage or bacon, toast, some fruits, yogurt, etc. and of course - a waffle station. Everything was clean. - They do have good coffee! Location was fabulous! It is close to the interstate and very close to restaurants and shopping, and only minutes from the University, but far enough away to avoid student traffic. What impressed me most was the staff. Someone showed up late for breakfast besides me. (All I wanted was coffee and I knew it would be available.) This guy was upset and quite rude to the staff - demanding to see the supervisor! Although it was completely this guy's fault for not arriving on time, the staff (Brenda and Ashley) were nothing be kind. The manager (gosh, cannot remember her name) handled the situation with calm. (I could never do her job.) In the end, he left satisfied with the solution, and we made it a point to compliment them on how they handled such a distressfully rude guest. I would stay here again in a heartbeat.

Hilton has multiple types of properties and I would consider this one a solid, mid-range hotel that makes you feel upscale. Very good breakfast. Beer and wine available. The two bedroom suite was extremely spacious and perfect for a family of four.

Don't reserve this hotel for more than $100.

The room was dirty upon arrival, and housekeeping was only provided every other day — supposedly for environmental reasons. But ironically, the showerhead kept leaking water nonstop, which is a real waste. The bedding was old and worn, and the dishes were dirty and sticky. On top of that, when we checked in, we weren’t even offered water, while other guests were — it honestly felt discriminatory. This hotel is absolutely not worth more than $100 a night.
