Was a great stay, although I drove from NY to celebrate my husband birthday at this hotel was hoping that calling ahead to do something special for the room would be great.the gentleman that I reached when I called was not willing to help with any accommodations. Thankfully at check in there was an angel at the front desk who was willing to help.

Although the facility was clean, most, but certainly not all of the staff was pleasant and the restaurant was especially nice, our room was a huge disappointment. We complained immediately but were treated rudely by the associate and offered a change at what we felt to be an unreasonable rate. The bathroom was unimaginably small without room to stand directly in front of the sink and had no ventilation, causing condensation to drip from the ceiling if the door wasn't left open while showering. I expected better from Hilton for an 8 day stay. Very disappointing.
