A Room With An Odor
We were only there one night. The staff were friendly and helpful. With that said our room was not the cleanest hotel room I have stayed in, and the floors gave off a distinct odor-as if they were not cleaned or cleaned via the use of a dirty mop.

The hotel was Ok but the hall and bathrooms were very dated. The bathrooms were small and for some reason the toilets were really low- almost as though made for children. The breakfast was “meh” not much choice - just bagels and muffins. But the coffee was always hot. The dining area was quite small. I don’t think I would stay in this hotel again.

Pluses to this property. There’s restaurants nearby, TGI Fridays and Delmonico’s if you’re arriving late. The rooms were spacious with 2 large screen TVs per room, suite had an extra nook/room with a pull out couch for those who want to fall asleep with the TV on. Downside, the hotel really has an aged feel to it. Looks like an old property that was remodeled/repainted ( ala lipstick on a pig feel), definitely doesn’t hold up to the Hilton name. Configuration was strange. Laundry was on the 3rd floor (not the 1st like every other hotel), Ice makers were on the 1st and 4th floor, and the one on the first floor was broken so it was weird going to a floor I didn’t stay on to get ice. Also, the cost of Laundry was $2 in quarters, when I went to front desk/ manager for change, she informed me they were a cashless hotel, then why have quarters for the laundry, get a debit type system. Breakfast bar was slim compared to other Hilton properties, it definitely is the Motel 6 of the Hilton chain

Stay away from this deceitful hotel
The hotel put me as a no show on my hotels.com reservation and charged my card for the stay and won’t give me a refund. I lost $300. Then this month they charged me for another 2 night stay even though we never left Canada. They advertise a pool but they had a drowning and filled the pool in and made it a conference room. So there is no pool. They show palm trees out front of the hotel on the hotels.com search for this hotel. There is NO palm trees. They advertise continental breakfast but there is only bagels and yogurt. Not great for a diabetic which I am.
