The bar/dining was only open for 2 days of our stay and the food was not good. The room was dirty and the drain was clogged. We asked for the room specifically the bathroom to be cleaned better and it wasn’t. Definitely not a Hilton standard at this hotel.

The bathroom has black mold growing at the base of the shower door. The restaurant was open less than half the time. Asked to have the bathroom drain cleaned and the black mode to be addressed and neither happened. Only had housekeeping in our room one time during the entire stay. Definitely not a Hilton property standard.

Whike we onmy stayed 1 night, there was no food available for dinner or breakfast. Not even Starbucks open. Literally only overpriced junk food to eat. Small parking spots for $30 a night. Have to physically get out of vehicle to scan card so you can enter the parking lot. The spots aren't big enough for trucks
