Sunset on the River

I believe we were the first people to stay in that room. The view of the sunsetting over the river was absolutely amazing. The phone in very clean room, did not work and I did not ask to fix it so late in the night. My son and I wanted some midnight snacks so we tried to get room service but could not due to the phone.

New Tru

I was surprised that this was the second day of the hotel opening. We have stayed at Tru Hilton several times but walking into a brand new Tru was a very pleasant surprise. The staff were very helpful and friendly. My only compliant was the $16 charge for parking.
