This hotel is a dump. Hallways are dirty, my room had stains on the floor, the ac barely worked, the ice machines were all broken, the elevators were broken, the front door was broken, the front desk was understaffed, and basically everything in this hotel was dirty or broken. I am stunned a downtown Hilton was this bad. It’s more like a motel 6 than a Hilton. Can’t believe I paid that much for a place that disgusting.

I had to wait four hours to get a room and when I got the room, there was no windows in the living room area. The shower was nasty so was the sink and the TV in the living room did not work. They should be ashamed.

Here's a more polished and professional rewrite of your message while keeping the tone direct and honest: --- We stayed at the hotel from June 27 to June 29 for a lacrosse tournament. Unfortunately, our experience did not meet expectations. Upon check-in, the front desk staff simply asked for my name, handed me the room key, and pointed toward the elevators. There was no information provided about the hotel—no mention of breakfast hours, restaurant schedule, or amenities like the pool or gym, which I never ended up locating. When we got to the room, we were exhausted and went straight to sleep. Later, when we used the bathroom, we found the sink dirty and full of hair, as if someone had just shaved and it hadn't been cleaned. There was also no fan in the bathroom, and the ceiling was peeling and sagging. I reported the issue both through Expedia and directly to the front desk, requesting that housekeeping clean the room by 2 PM. I received no apology or acknowledgment—just silence. When we returned around 8 PM, the room still hadn’t been cleaned. I called the front desk and explained the situation, including that I work in the hotel industry and understand that housekeeping may not be available that late. I simply requested some fresh towels and that the trash be removed. Someone came up with towels and trash bags, but when I asked if I could hand him the trash, he replied, “I’m not here to take your trash.” At that point, I didn’t even bother

Probably the worst experience I ever had in a hotel started with a check in process to the room and the rest of the hotel staff. Just a very miserable bunch of people stay somewhere else this is obviously a poorly managed property.

Very tired property. Bed linen was clean and comfortable. Nice products in the bathroom. Overall the place needs a refurb in the common areas. Air-con must be upgraded, it's very noisy and clunky to use. Staff were pleasant.

Sketchy area of town. We were referred to dinner by front desk staff, got to War Room and it was not good food. They were out of filets at a self proclaimed sushi & steakhouse on a Saturday. They had 3 tables sat in the whole place when we arrived. Then we got to our room around 1030p and found out we were out of shampoo and body wash in the provided dispensers. We called to have room service bring it up. Never received it! The bathtub also had a black film or streak of something they couldn’t scrub out apparently. So we checked out of our 9 hour stay at property with no shampoo or body wash in shower or ever brought to us. Luckily my wife had some stuff in her bag we all used. You pay $200+ a night you expect to have better service by Hilton than this!

Cleanliness can be improved.

Floor in the hallway (corridor from where all rooms are accessed) was not vacuumed for the 3 nights I stayed there. A colleague staying in another roof found out that his room had trash behind the curtains (previous guest’s takeout).

We stayed here so we could walk to a concert at MVP Arena. The property itself and lobby area were very nice. Our room could use a little updating. It wasn't too bad, but not quite up to what we usually see in Hilton's rooms.
