Very upsetting on my wedding day. Why use a room and floor with no air. When standing in the hall waiting on elevator it was so hot it ruined my hair, felt like i was going to pass out from the heat. I had 5 rooms total. Very disappointed.

When we arrived at the hotel, we had high hopes. It's conveniently located in the heart of downtown South Bend, which made it an ideal choice for our stay. We were aware of the ongoing interior construction, so we came in with realistic expectations. Upon check-in, we were informed that the hotel was over capacity for king bed rooms. The front desk kindly offered us a room with two queen beds instead and, in return, waived our parking fee and provided two complimentary breakfast vouchers. We appreciated their effort to accommodate us and were told we'd be staying in one of the newly renovated rooms. When we got to the 9th floor, it was extremely warm—almost no airflow in the hallway. As we walked toward our room, we noticed a strong odor of mildew and sewage, which was unpleasant but we remained hopeful that our room would be better. Unfortunately, the same odor was present in the room. While the air conditioning worked, it wasn’t as effective as we had hoped. Additionally, the TV had technical issues—it would frequently freeze or fail to respond, requiring us to turn it off or change the channel manually. Overall, the room served its basic purpose as a place to sleep, but given the conditions, we likely wouldn’t choose to stay here again.

Never again.

Over booked king size rooms so we did two double bed rooms. First room they checked us into was leaking through the ceiling. Second room was just unclean. Stains on the walls. Just gross. Wedding in the atrium and the AC was broken. Pool ceiling was leaking into the pool. Hallways were an inferno. We checked out today (Sunday) and they were doing renovations at 8am in the morning. I’ll never stay here again. Just completely unacceptable.

Hot lobby and restaurant area. I guess the air conditioning wasn’t working. It did work in the room. TV didn’t work and there was only one large towel for 3 adults. We called and they moved us to a nicer room with all essentials. Employees were nice. But the hotel is very outdated.

It was probably great when it was newer but it’s clearly in need of some major renovating. Everything was dusty, windows were dirty, no soap in the atrium bathroom, ice machine on our floor (3) smelled horrible, frequently smelled of cigarette smoke in our hallway and in the atrium. The positive was that all of the staff was very friendly, from the restaurant staff, housekeeping, and front desk.

I thought this was going to a nice hotel, it's a Hilton. The room was filthy, extremely dilapidated with wallpaper and the AC unit repaired with tape. The AC unit made an awful sould that never stopped. It also never got me below 74 even though I set it at 68. This the worst hotel I've ever stayed in, the room was absolutely run down and disgusting.

The hotel is very old and really needs some updating. We had to run the hot water for 25 minutes before it got hot, the ice maker was removed from our floor(5), the carpeting in doorway to our room was ripped and frayed, same for the hallway going to the room. The room next to ours was being worked on so the banging began at 8:20 every morning. I would not stay here again.
