Hilton should be ashamed to have its name associated with this property. Our room was a disgrace. First, It was dark and dingy, so we raised the window shade, only to discover that our window faced a stucco wall just a few feet away. Worse, the window from a different guest room stared right into our room, compromising our privacy. We were thus forced to keep the shade down which had the practical effect of a windowless room. We asked if we could be moved to a room with a better view and were told “all the rooms are like that”. Second, there was a clump of human hair in the bathtub from a previous guest, which was disgusting. Third, the room was very poorly appointed and lacked even a chair or sofa. The only choice was to sit on the bed or stand. Fifth, there was no real closet and no bureau or chest to put our clothing. The hotel was obviously aware of this design defect and had temerity to post a sticker suggesting to use the hooks in the hallway or store items “under the bed.” Sixth, most of the lighting, which was inadequate to begin with, did not work. Seventh, the décor was obviously budget-level with most surfaces covered in cheap laminate. To add insult to injury, we were charged $450, which is literally a multiple of the rate typically charged for hotel rooms of this caliber. We feel we were misled and were victims of price gouging. We have photographs to document the conditions we have described in this review.This review complies with your criteria

In my haste i booked this due to a last minute business trip. Instant regret! Prior to getting out of my rental car, i was met by a valet attendant who immediately advised of the valet/parking rates. Daily valet, $40 per day. Parking a block away in an unsecure lot, $20. After checking into my smallish room, i went to park at the 2nd option. I didn't feel secure in leaving my rental in this lot or paying an addition fee for valet so i chose an express Holiday Inn a short distance from this hotel.

Overall a great hotel. Cleanliness not a problem everything was very clean. Staff were very helpful and informative. Valet is easy to use snd you may as well unless you want to walk a few blocks away. Theres a small lot just for the hotel behind a building next to a food truck, it costs $30 to park there over night. After goijg through all the trouble and fees and inconvenience its almost worth the $10 difference just for them to park it and get it for you. Amenities lacking and thats the reason for 4 instead of 5 stars. The breakfast will leave you thinking you should just wake up and go somewhere else, not many options and the ones you do have are low quality. Stayed for 3 days, was not impressed any day with breakfast. Rooms do not have a microwave. Older mini fridge made a high pitched hum sound the whole stay in our room, got used to it. A/c unit was old and sounded like it struggled each time it came on but it kept the room a crisp 71°. The pool, literally just a wading area its about 10 inches deep no lie it has a no swimming sign next to it we took a picture for the irony. Its noisy here, some i understand cant be helped, the room next to us i think finally realized we were there and were quieter finally. But being where the hotel is, all the bars and parties bring all the people outside. It sounded like a party Friday and Saturday night outside and never stopped. Didnt bother us but something to think about.
