Couples get away

We started one night just to enjoy a get away. Overall very nice and would stay again. Only complaint is the balcony door is broken/ off track maybe? And so it was hard to open. The restaurant was really nice and delicious and we enjoyed both bars and pool. Definitely a nice stay.

I paid additional room charge to have balcony over looking the river. Beautiful view. However they do not even have a chair to sit on that balcony. When I told the person at front desk she quickly dismissed me. Clearly I had not been the only person to mention this and she clearly did not want to hear about it.

The hotel was older and more dated than expected. The front desk called to confirm my reservations when the room was paid for. There was trash (cups, etc.) on the window sills on my floor. We told the front desk staff. The trash was still there the next day. There was a MATTRESS lying out at the end of the hall. The river front view and location were amazing, but this hotel, not so much.

Returning for a second stay. The hotel is attentive to all the smaller aspects which leaves an overall feeling of informal luxury. Including breakfast in rather high cost should be considered

There wasn't any chairs on the balcony which defeated the purpose. If we ever stay again we will not be paying for a balcony room. Also, the shower leaked. It sprayed up onto the ceiling and flooded the bathroom. (Which is extremely small) Maintenance did come and fix it immediately.

Sad for a Hilton member

I reserved 2 rooms, 317 and 310. My parents were in 310. The shower curtain rod was crooked so water ran out and they are elderly. Next, the water faucet in the shower kept coming off and they had to put it back on. The front desk was made aware.
