messed up my reservations and gave my room to another person which led to someone trying to get into my room at 11 at night. (Thank goodness I had deadbolt on) I always thought this type of thing is like an urban legend. Hard to believe it actually could happen and at Hilton! The person who called the room to check up on me even tried to argue with me to say that it could happen anywhere.

Hotel's Favourite
Front Desk agent Theresa Thomas was professional, helpful, and had exemplary customer service! The room is clean and nice. From the moment I arrived, when the bellhop helped me with my bags to the front desk, the excellent front desk, agent, and other employees who helped direct me to the elevators, were all wonderful. Great place to stay.

The whole stay was lovely. The workout station was spacious and well kept, the landmarks around the hotel were easily accessible, and the food was great. The service was up to par, the front desk staff were kind and ready to help. To be specific, Frank was a great help; he was kind, was quick to help, and always gave us a smile and a wave whenever we crossed paths.

Impeccable service from the front ofc to the cleaning staff. Frank, the front office manager, linked my two separate reservations together so I could stay in the same room without interruption from my business stay to my family stay. When I told him I had family coming, he gave me a fantastic corner room on a high floor and made sure I got my full Hilton honors points. He was fantastic and so was the bell man and cleaning person Ding. Every time my family and I would come back very late from a long day of walking the bell man would ask us if we need bottled water. It was such a relief because we often came back exhausted after the stores would close. Ding, our super friendly cleaning lady, whom I asked once for water and extra wash rags would always make sure we had plenty of everything for our whole family. We were so thankful for that as we often logged about 11 miles per day in walking and would arrive back at night exhausted. We truly felt taken care of. Can’t recommend them enough.

Nice hotel for conference. Food was very good- nice range of food options for any audience. Also, staff was very helpful. I was especially impressed with Frank at the front desk as he helped me meet a deadline by printing out a shipping label. Most hotels would have send me elsewhere.

Frank was very polite and made sure I was taken care of! Check in and out is easy and you’re able to get early check in/late checkout without much hassle. The hotel is close to everything so it’s easy to get around. Good experience overall! I’ll be back.
