The check-in and check-out process was smooth and efficient. The room was spacious and accommodating; I requested additional towels and toilet paper, which were provided in a timely manner. However, our room did not receive housekeeping services during our 2-night stay, and although I did not expect bed-making services, I would have appreciated it if all trash bins had been emptied. Despite this, the stay was generally pleasant.

Very Roomy

I love the roomy suite with a full kitchen. It was a comfortable stay. The couch in our room was pretty dirty and the cabinet doors were a little grimy. Also the bed sheets were too small for the bed and kept slipping off. Overall we felt the room was comfortable but it could use a good deep cleaning.

Staff was friendly. Great hot breakfast. The sofa and chair were worn and soiled. I could not get wi fi on my iPad. I know it's not my iPad because I just vacationed at another hotel and it worked fine. I think it's the fact that you have to be a Hilton Honors member which I was to get free wi-fi and it worked on my phone but not my iPad. I have limited service on my phone so it was not a good experience for me. I don't know if I will stay again because of the wifi issue. They should re-do their wi-fi policy. I think that I deserve a partial refund because of it.
