Did not meet my expectations from Hilton Hotels.
Pros:

It was 'fine' hotel and location. It seemed that this was a pet friendly location and this was its function, but this was not made clear to me on booking.

Cons:

It is not that I disliked anything BUT I expect more from Hilton. If this was not a Hilton location I would have changed most of my answers. Sorry, that I am not sorry about expecting a higher level of service and location from Hilton.

Stop looking and book it! Very nice place!
Pros:

This was hands down the cleanest place we have stayed at, and the room looked brand new! Good sized room. Pet fee was minimal. Only $25! Very happy about that! Many hotels charge almost as much as the cost of the room! The bed was amazingly comfortable!! Would highly recommend!

Cons:

Nothing. Everything was perfect!

Could be better
Pros:

The beds were like sleeping in clouds!!

Cons:

No elevator. I’m 8 months pregnant that came for a weekend baseball tournament with just kids and couldnt get our cooler up the steps without help from a stranger.. also the pool had bugs in it! I will post pictures of that on the site.
Not much of a breakfast.

Pros:

Everything was really clean. Comfortable furniture. Lots of room space. nice bathroom.

Cons:

Breakfast was lacking. Muffins, bagels, yogurt and cereal were the only options. I did find a weird piece of plastic in my yogurt/ strawberries/ granola. Everthing still tasted good. The TV in my room did not work but I didn't really need it.

It was so relieving to know there is a hotel that is not trying to harm you with their chemical use.
Pros:

I really enjoyed the fact your hotel did not smell of chemical cleaning supplies. It was very refreshing to breath the air in your hotel! I will only stay at your hotel everytime I am in your area!
