Staff was very nice and friendly, but needed another person at front desk. We were supposed to get 2 bottles of water and a snack at check-in. I heard the desk clerk tell the man who checked in before us that we hey were out of water, so we didn’t get anything. The carpet in the room was threadbare in some places. They had a nice breakfast.

The hotel is conveniently located on Walnut and 41st. The staff was helpful and rooms were good. We had booked a suite style room and our teenage kids slept in a pull out bed with us in the adjacent room. The only drawback I thought was the breakfast. Rather not buy the breakfast with room.

Hot tub funky

We were hopeful for a nice pool and hot tub, but the hot tub was a green color, fowl smell, and caused my daughter to break out in bumps/rash. The room was nice. Elevator was fast. Parking is expensive. There is street parking you can find for free around the area but not sure if there is time limits on street parking. We parked in a garage a half a block away and paid $18 a day for the weekend, $25 a day during week.

Overpriced

Arrived at this hotel around 7:30 PM to a ghost town. Valet was not around. There was a sign there saying the valet was away. So I parked my car in a line of cars. Went to the front desk and there was also a sign there saying they had stepped away. Me and another guest who came after I did waited 10 minutes for an employee to return to check us in. I could understand if I checked in around 3 AM. But 7:30 PM and the staff is missing??? I went back FIVE different times to the valet before FINALLY finding him. For around $250 a night I expect better than this!

Shower pressure was terrible. Bathroom wasn’t cleaned properly. I used the Hilton app for contactless check in but it was useless basically. They charge $45 per night for parking so I didn’t bring my car, but somehow I was still charged and had to call and ask to be refunded. Which they did but had I not checked. How many people are they charging without them knowing? The pool and hot tub were ok but they should clean it more often. The breakfast spread was nice but they should label all the foods I wasn’t sure what meats they had out because they were not labeled so I didn’t eat it. Elevators were quick I liked that.

The staff was courteous and friendly. The room was spacious and comfortable. My only issue was the AC wasn't working properly. The room was cool but not as cool as it should have been. Could have been my fault. You have many choices for the included breakfast which is nice. Overall it was a great hotel to stay at.
