This was a work stay - but I would totally bring my family. The location is 5 mins from airport - so easy! My flight was delayed a few hours and finally got arrived late evening. Checking in was pleasant and efficient. I appreciated the coffee and hot water station in the lobby and grabbed a cup of tea to take to my room. The breakfast was good- hot and cold options. The location is in the older part of town, within a 5-10 minute walk I could grab bbq, sushi, Thai, burgers and choose from numerous taquerias and Mexican food places. There’s also a 7-11, and two ethnic markets if you wanted to grab a snack or beverage, the hotel also has snacks for sale too. I didn’t use the pool or hot tub but it looked nice. The room was nice, and bed comfortable. Like most hotels you can hear louder people in hallway which can be annoying late into night but that’s not really the hotels fault. The hotel is not fancy but it was comfortable, accommodating and had everything I needed and the staff was really pleasant. Would stay again.

Staff was great, room was nice and clean but could use updating. Main complaint was not with the hotel itself, but with guests and children. We had at least one toddler (hard to tell after a certain point) that was allowed to RUN & Stomp for hours. This went on late 10/11PM and started up again 7AM. Kept believing it would end. Went to the other Hilton to enjoy the rooftop Bar & same thing; toddlers running all around, between tables, squealing. I’m not against children, I have them, it’s the disbelief of any parental oversight or discipline; lack of even basic manners on both sides & consideration of others in public spaces It’s extremely disrespectful to others. It’s not like they were on an airplane; there were options besides letting them run amok.
