Cooked-to-order breakfast with praised omelette

Categories

Cleanliness
6.5
Mixed reports: many guests praised clean, nicely appointed rooms and large towels, but one guest reported what appeared to be black mold in an air vent — a serious cleanliness concern that lowers the score.
Service
8.5
Mixed but generally positive: several guests described staff as friendly and accommodating and praised service, though there are notable negative incidents (being told breakfast wasn’t included after serving themselves; refusal to change room) that detract from a perfect score.
Location
9.5
Consistently positive: multiple guests stated the location was great and convenient.
Room Quality
8
Generally strong: rooms described as clean, spacious, with good bathrooms and amenities (Keurig, bench), but isolated issues (mold in vent) negatively affected some stays.
Amenities
8.8
Positive: guests mentioned pool and hot tub, free/large parking lot, in-room amenities (Keurig, quality towels) and a dining area offering cooked-to-order breakfast and good omelettes.
Value for Money
6
Concerns about value: several guests felt breakfast should be included at the rate paid (one cited a $350/night rate) and compared unfavorably to nearby properties with complimentary breakfast.
Food and Beverage
7
Mixed: the for-purchase breakfast received praise for cooked-to-order items (notably the omelette), but lack of complimentary breakfast and related confusion/embarrassment lowered satisfaction for some guests.
Overall Experience
8.1
Overall mixed-to-positive: many guests had excellent stays praising staff, cleanliness, rooms and amenities, but construction/renovation during some visits and serious cleanliness/service incidents reduced the overall experience for others.

Nice hotel but poor service
Pros:

Very clean and nicely appointed room

Cons:

We were told after serving ourselves breakfast that it wasn’t included in our room rate which was $350 a night. We had not even gotten to a table yet to eat and ended up putting our plates down and leaving. It was highly unprofessional and very embarrassing.

Excellent stay! Beyond my expectations!
Pros:

Property was inviting and in a great location.
The room was clean and spacious. It had a sitting Bench and keurig machine. The bathroom was very nice with body wash, shampoo, and conditioner provided. Bath towels were nice and huge! Staff was friendly and very accommodating. Free parking and large parking lot was available. They have a for-purchase breakfast in a dining area. Food was cooked when ordered. Omelette was exceptional! I would love to stay there again!

Cons:

Nothing

Cons:

The vent where the air was blowing out was covered in what looked to be black mold. I took pictures. I slept with a young child there and Hilton would not change my room.

Pros:

Good location, friendly staff, and clean rooms.

Cons:

It was under going renovations, so the pool/hot tub area were unavailable. I wish Booking.com included that on their website as well. Parking lot needs to be repaved.

Overall it was acceptable
Pros:

Plenty of parking for larger vehicles, the staff was inviting, the room had an awesome view, and the gym was nice too.

Cons:

I did not like having to pay for breakfast, they need to put up a sign or something that it is a restaurant arrangement and not something you can quickly get like other locations.
