For being a Hilton Garden, this location wasn't in the best of condition. Guessing it's at the end of it's useful life before a remodel. Outdated room furniture, scuffs and bangs all over the walls. It was clean, just used very heavily over the years. Breakfast isn't free here, however even if you wanted to buy it, they didn't have it available. Overall ok, but for the price better alternatives in the area
