This hotel looks great. Until you stay there. The windows act like they are dingle pane glass allowing all the road noise in your room. The floors and walls are not well insulated causing the noise level to be ridiculously loud. We weren’t able to sleep soundly. Very disappointed. Hilton properties are usually much better.

Great location for my needs. Checking in was a little irritating because I was sent to a room that wasn’t made up. Fixed on the 2nd try. Also on the first night, when I went to take a shower, there was no hot water. The second night was much better. Breakfast was good, convenient and had a nice variety of foods.
