Coffee pot in the room was broken. AC from another business made the balcony noisy such that you couldn’t hear the ocean waves or enjoy conversation. The room was very nice. Bedding was nice. Shower was good, Staff was extremely friendly and helpful.

Overall a good place

Great location - check in was super friendly. Later that night the person behind the desk was not so nice but only had one interaction. Did not know there was a parking fee. Overall I would recommend for the off season price.

Appeared clean, however 1st night there had loud neighbors at 1230am. Got up to address this and room had cockroaches running around on the floor. Was given a different room but could not sleep that night. Asked for manager to call and am still waiting to hear from them. Have messaged the hotel and no response yet. We left on the 7th

Good stay

Overall, it was a pleasant experience. Upon arrival, the check-in process was smooth and efficient, with friendly staff who immediately made me feel welcome. The lobby was inviting, with a modern design and comfortable seating areas. My room was clean and well-maintained, and it featured a comfortable bed. I also had breakfast at the hotel’s restaurant, which had a good variety of options, from fresh fruits to made-to-order omelets. My experience at the Hilton was positive, marked by comfortable accommodations, great service, and convenient amenities. I would definitely consider staying here again on my next visit.
