Friendliness of staff at check in. Lynette was very helpful with information about Duke University Hospital where I had an appointment the next day. She let us know all the options available to me and made sure that I was taken care of. She sent a text to our room to make sure we had everything we needed after we got there. I know that’s a service they provide. But it was a great experience.

Tv wouldn’t turn on this am & no manual switch on the tv. Parking: fyi they charge $5. This location is not near any entertainment or downtown, so there’s that. Remodeling is going on. Our room was very nice, clean & attractive. Lobby & restaurant are attractive. Staff are very nice.

The hotel and staff were extremely lovely with the exception of the room smell. Not sure if it was thre actual room or vents. . Once we turned off the fan/ac the room smell slightly improved. We were only there for one night so it was tolerable for one night. The hotel is currently undergoing a renovation, so hopefully this one oversight will improve. Otherwise easy access to freeways, lots of parking and row of restaurants close by.

Wonderful welcome from Immaculate. She was so friendly and efficient. Room was great. In the bathroom, one of the hooks was hanging off the wall, so that needs to be fixed. Otherwise, great stay!

I had a problem the first night that I stayed at this hotel. The smoke detector kept going off until 2:30 am. When I call to report this problem the front desk person said that maintenance would be coming up. They never showed. So today when I checked out I asked if there was going to be an adjustment (credit) to my bill. The front desk person that since I booked with Expedia nothing could be done. Be aware of this situation.

Our first room was overwhelmingly musty and damp. The carpet and bedding were damp. The smell was powerful and unpleasant. The curtains were falling off the ceiling. We did ask for another room and were quickly accommodated. Our new room was a little better but not great. Again, very musty, damp and generally unpleasant. This was very surprising for a Hilton and made for an uncomfortable night.

Room smelled heavily of mold. The housekeeper replaced our towels and replaced 2 of the towels with dirty linen. Our couch was sticky and so was the carpet. Also the toilet paper holder was broken so the toilet paper had to sit on the back of the toilet. For a suit I was highly disappointed in the room. The front desk lady was super nice but couldn’t accommodate a room change due to them being at capacity.
