Categories

Cleanliness
8
Mixed cleanliness: many guests praised 'very clean', 'new and clean' rooms, but several reports of missed cleaning (garbage can not emptied, trash left, sink with dirty water, half-cleaned room) lowered the score.
Service
9.5
Generally strong, with many mentions of staff being 'amazing', 'very friendly and accommodating', and going 'above and beyond' (including pet accommodations). Some negative check-in/desk interactions and a single report of rude housekeeping, but positive service comments dominate.
Location
9
Standard quality for this hotel tier (location not mentioned in reviews).
Room Quality
9.3
Rooms are frequently described as 'new', 'comfortable', with 'comfortable bed' and 'great shower'; a few guests noted the remodel still felt a bit old but overall room quality is strong.
Amenities
8.6
Mixed amenities: excellent wifi speeds were called out positively, 24/7 coffee availability in public areas noted, and good storage/hooks in rooms; negatives include missing in-room coffee pots, no gym reported by a guest, and limited breakfast variety at times.
Value for Money
9.6
Perceived as good value by multiple guests ('very happy with the value', 'would definitely stay again'), supporting an above-target rating.
Food and Beverage
8
Breakfast is included and has some positive items (boiled eggs, bagels, oatmeal, fruit, coffee), but several guests described it as 'limited' or 'not very good' on some days, lowering this score.
Overall Experience
10
Overall impressions skew positive: many guests said they'd 'definitely stay again' or that staff made stays memorable; negative experiences (check-in delays, isolated service/cleaning issues) exist but do not outweigh widespread positive sentiment.

Pros:

Weird upon check in our room was clean and nice EXCEPT housekeeping had not emptied one of the garbage cans in our room which led to the thought...what else did they miss? So i checked the sheets and they were ok. Nice hotel

First time at Spark… definitely will stay again
Pros:

This was a new Hilton brand for us and we were very happy with the value, comfort and design. There are really convenient storage options that are often missing with other hotel brands.

Hooks in main room and bathroom were appreciated. Nice shelving in both rooms too, making storage of clothes and toiletries easy.

Comfortable bed, great shower and clean room. Continental breakfast included boiled eggs, bagels, hot oatmeal and several fruit options. Coffee available 24/7.

We will definitely stay at a Spark hotel again.

Find somewhere else
Pros:

There was no coffee pot in the room, the gym does not exist, when they 'made' my bed it was worse than how I left it in the morning, and the cleaning staff hovered while I was packing up, so I left early. It was uncomfortable to experience. I will not be back.

Pros:

Room wasn't ready upon check in, front desk staff were slow and not helpful. Once room was "ready" I went up and the cleaning person was still in the room. Room was only half cleaned (still had trash from prior guests, sink was full of dirty water, etc.). Room has been remodeled but still felt old. Breakfast was very limited (bagel, packaged muffin, or cereal). Was fine for one night but wouldn't want to stay longer.
