Dirty. Don’t stay.
Pros:

Not a big review writer but beware! I’m a Hilton Honors Member and this was the dirtiest Hilton that I’ve ever stayed at. There were hairs all over the bathroom, rotten blueberries on the floor, stained towels and sheets, dirty coffee maker. The pool was even so dirty that they closed it for the two days that we were there to shock and refill it (total bummer traveling with two kids). I can overlook the worn furniture but it was just gross and grimy. We asked for them to clean the room again but it was still dirty (these pics are after the extra cleaning). We paid $523 for two nights. The front desk gave us $100 off for the dirtiness. I was texting with management but they made no suggestions to remedy.

Just fine but check your bill
Pros:

We were on our way to a very satisfactory stay - impressed with the location, the cleanliness, the wonderful views from the rooms, and the cozy coffee shop complete with games and comfortable surroundings. The hotel nearly blew it though (could have and perhaps should have taken off more stars) when an absurd parking fee showed up on the bill despite that the room rate I selected (every penny of which was charged) specifically included parking. Especially in these days of electronic check-out and e-mailed bills, this cannot happen and is inexcusable in my view. It was of course removed, however, when I caught it in my emailed bill and returned to the hotel to address it.

I will also add as friendly advice that Hilton would do well to provide clear/consistent guidance and standardize practices around how members can earn points on multiple rooms. I did exactly as instructed in the FAQ’s and requested that all charges be on one folio (one bill) though the hotel was confused and/or adamant that they could not do this and the room charges had to be on separate bills. This led to some consternation on my part at the time although I did ultimately get appropriate credit. However, I also remain confused about how the gold/Diamond f&b credit works in this situation. I (Diamond) reserved and paid for my room and a room that another member (Gold) stayed in and I was told we would only get the f&b credit in that room if the gold member held the room under his # in which case I would not earn the points.

I am not blaming the hotel here as again, at the end of the day, I was satisfied with how things were handled and these issues - so far as I can tell - are dealt with inconsistently across the board. I feel like I am told something different anytime this situation arises, and it does come up once or twice a year at least on family trips. I mention this just as something Hilton Corp. could probably help standardize and clarify across the board.
