Disappointing
Pros:

Location.

Cons:

The hotel’s biggest strengths are its excellent location and the concierge, who was consistently the friendliest and most helpful member of the team.

Unfortunately, the rest of our experience was disappointing. Our room was not ready until approximately 30 minutes after the advertised 4:00 PM check-in time.

During check-in, I asked about the express check-out process in case reception happened to be busy at the time of departure. I was told that I could simply leave the key cards in the box. The receptionist then mentioned that there would “probably” be additional charges to the card on file, giving only a very brief explanation before moving on. I found the use of the word “probably” inappropriate, as it suggested that extra charges were likely.

The room itself felt dated, with older décor and a very small window. The bathroom and shower also felt outdated, and the shower was quite small.

I was also disappointed by the service at reception. When I requested assistance with our luggage, the receptionist appeared hesitant to help, even after the concierge prompted them to do so. I expected a more welcoming, attentive, and proactive level of service from a Hilton hotel.

Overall, while the location is excellent and the concierge was outstanding, I believe the hotel would benefit from improvements to both its rooms and the consistency of its front desk service.
