The overall hotel is very run down and that is disappointing as it is part of a Hilton family hotel.
Pros:

Breakfast was good

Cons:

There was a leak in bathroom, the leak was from ceiling and spilled water on the floor. The leak has been there a while as there was mold on wall and room smelled. We were moved to another room…but that room had a stained couch. It appears that cleaning folks did not clean sofa as there were crumbs in between the cushions. I was supposed to get parking fee removed and that did not happen.
