Cleanliness
6.8
Multiple guests reported housekeeping issues (wad of hair in shower, poorly fitted/riding-up sheets, possible mold under tile) though some reviews noted rooms seemed clean; overall cleanliness is below expectations.
Service
9.8
Staff repeatedly described as friendly, awesome and helpful (noted check-in staff, helpful front desk and bar/restaurant service); service is a clear strength.
Location
9.2
Consistently described as a quiet, safe and convenient location with good proximity to events; location is a strong positive.
Room Quality

Several complaints about room issues: very hard beds that caused sore backs, small rooms for the brand, slow hot water, thermostat not going low, and general maintenance problems affecting room comfort.
Amenities
8.6
Patio, gardens and fire pits praised and presented well, but some amenities suffered from maintenance (hot tub under maintenance for a while, elevator/carpet issues). Overall amenities are good but inconsistently maintained.
Value for Money
7
Mixed value perception: positive comments about price range and property, but negative impact from extra charges (breakfast not included, $28 buffet) and maintenance/comfort issues.
Food and Beverage
7.7
Reports of many breakfast options and a nice bar/restaurant, but some guests noted warm food was only room temperature and breakfast was not included, lowering satisfaction.

Pros:

The outdoor seating area was marvelous. They were hosting 2-3 large events, the parking lots were overflowing in front but there was disabled parking close enough at a back door. Despite the large parties it was quiet and nice. The parties were held on the opposite side of the hotel. I was impressed.

Pros:

Facility was very nice, we loved the patio area and fire pits. But the beds are TERRIBLE. They are very hard, both my husband and I woke up with sore backs both mornings we stayed there. Also, our thermostat would not go lower than 70 degrees, although we tried to set it lower while we were sleeping. It was not hot outside while we stayed, either, so I know that was not a factor.

Pros:

Area safe. Quiet, didnt have any noise issues. Our room wasnt cleaned well. There was a wad of hair on top of the shower drain when we arrived. The fitted sheets were too small for the bed and kept riding up. A piece of tile was coming up in the bathroom and it looked like dark mold growing under it. The hot tub was under maintenence. and had apparently been so for a while now.. Carpet was coming up in the elevators. You have to pay for breakfast, which is super lame. Staff was friendly, had no issues there.

Pros:

The room was small for a Hilton property, it took forever to get hot water to the shower, and they did NOT include breakfast with our stay. We could, however, pay an additional $28.00 for a buffet.

Pros:

The room was just OK. I guess the thing that bothered me the most was the elevator sometimes worked and sometimes didn’t the front fireplace sometimes worked and sometimes didn’t the hot tub was down and they said it had been down for a long time the owners of this hotel do not care about maintenance. The staff seemed great but I would not stay here again.

Pros:

The warm food was at best room temp. The bed was hard. I am not sure I will ever understand why handy cap rooms are on anything but the first floor. Ours was on the 3rd floor
