Room smelled stale and out of three days they only clean room once! Used their laundry service and got ripped off horribly in my opinion as was a small bag of laundry and they charged me massive where I could have bought 7 expensive bottles of detergent at home! Canadian! Restaraunt is stupid expensive and paid huge USA for a chicken curry dish with an iced tea which is like way more in Canadian! Won’t ever stay at a Hilton hotel ever again especially after seeing they would t allow ICE agents to stay there, if people knew the corruption from these illegals they be all for their removal
