Great location; in the middle of plenty of food options and easy on/off from the highway.
Pros:

Location could not be beat.

Cons:

The carpeting around the bed needed cleaning. I had a unique perspective because I do yoga when I travel so being on the floor can be telling.

Excellent location, Great price, Amazing Staff
Pros:

The hotel staff was amazing. My room was ready a full hour and a half before check in. The facilities were freshly cleaned. My room had a spot that had been painted, and it looked perfect. I can’t say enough good things about this stay. A huge improvement over my last few stays, and Hilton really won me over this time.
