Uncharacteristic of a Downtown Hilton.

The overall stay was fine and Hilton eventually allowed us to move to another room. But this hotel has ongoing AC issues that need to be addressed. Many rooms do not cool properly and feel very humid. We experienced this on a prior stay in 2024 and again during this trip. (College team block of rooms). The plumbing needs work also. Our first room did not have enough pressure to fully flush the toilet. Toilet was not clogged. But the lack of pressure in the pipes created a weak flush and the shower flow stopped mid shower a few times. We asked the front desk if we could change rooms but they wanted to send maintenance up instead. But maintenance never came. So we waited another day to ask again to be moved to another room. I am generally not a complainer and we thought we could get by in the first room. But, the AC and plumbing was too much of an inconvenience. I am positive the management at Hilton knows they have an AC problem but they seem to be fine with booking these problem rooms out.

Was a nice hotel from the rooms and the feel of it. However staff was very hit or miss. One literally rolled her eyes when asked about the included breakfast, couldn't answer the question and told the other front desk girl she couldn't deal with this, who then stepped in and kindly answered the question. My room was incredibly hot. I asked about the AC not working and they assured me that they would get someone to fix it or get me another room. Neither of these things happened and had miserable nights trying to sleep with it blowing hot air. Had to go down to the lobby multiple times just to cool off.
