Worst Hotel I've Stayed at since college

The television was broken. The linens were soiled and not washed. I met with the manager 5 times and they said they would credit the stay. Upon checking out this morning, the lady at the front desk got confrontational and would not credit anything. She was trying to start an altercation. I

Liked: Staff & service
Conveniently located near the college with easy access to major highways but despite some renovations, this location is showing its age. We had a loud AC unit that needed service and was found to be heavily clogged and had mold on the cover. Given the many other options, would not return especially with no free parking. Was OK, not great. Staff were friendly.

Great place to stay regardless of why you’re in!

My husband and a few of our friends were hitting up the Phish show they were having Saturday and Sunday. The hotel workers were aware of the concert event, and asked about both shows! The hotel staff was on it with everything, the pool was extremely relaxing and the outside area neat and next to the pool offered plenty of shade and comfortable seating. I really enjoyed my 2 nights I spent here for two of the neat public performances I’ve ever seen! Thank you Hilton and thank you Phish for giving us a magical experiences!

A car was stolen from the parking garage while we were there so that was a little unsettling .. I understand that this could have happened anywhere but since there are entrances into the hotel from the parking garage this made me a little nervous! Otherwise the rooms were super clean & all of the staff was super friendly. I also loved the Starbucks in the lobby. So convenient.

After arriving to my room , noticed wrinkled sheets on bed , pulled back the covers and sheets and pillow cases were nasty , no microwave in the room, coffee pot didn’t work , shower had dried urine in the corners and dried soap scum on the walls , only one roll of tissue for a 3 day stay for 2 people , never came to room to discuss issues we called them 4 times they never came to our room . Also never recieved the credit back to my credit card . Very unhappy with my stay , also charged more than 15.00 a day to park in their parking and we had no choice but to pay because there was no where else to park .
