Overall it was a decent stay, but for the price we spent for a night, it should’ve been better. The room wasn’t in the best condition, it was in good condition but should be maintained better. The bathroom counter was cracked and not put back together, could’ve easily cut someone. There was garbage left over from a prior guest in the kitchen cabinet. The pool area was overcrowded and not very kid friendly being that they allowed adults to drink alcohol by the pool; there wasn’t anyone to help maintain a positive or safe environment in that area. Parking in the neighborhood is scarce, and overnight parking costs $45 at the hotel if you don’t find a street parking. The breakfast was below average as a buffet; very basic breakfast items. The staff were friendly overall. We wouldn’t stay here again, but we made the most our trip overall.

-Got there and had to wait outside in the cold as the doors are locked and you need a valet attendant to open it for you -you must give your keys/car to a valet attendant before you can check in as there is no parking -I went to check in and was told they overbooked and didn’t have any of the room that we booked left and couldn’t issue a refund. Also told there was no way to talk to a manager for assistance. I ended up calling Hilton customer service and was told they actually had 20 such rooms available and all of a sudden the lady at the front desk could find us one. -the room was filthy and when I went back to the front desk to request clean sheets, the lady who had checked me in (initially denying availability of our room) was behind the wall loudly mocking me to the other lady working -no hot water in the shower -a lot of damage to the room including large stains on the carpeting and chairs, the temp control dial in the fridge was removed, chipped walls, etc. -a man was doing drugs in the hot tub when I went to take my girls swimming, but as the front desk lady had already made it clear she didn’t like me, we decided to just give up on it -Valet parking is required

Room was great & good location in the city! Staff are friendly & helpful! Breakfast buffet was well-stocked and the room had a lot of natural light! We were there when it was snowing, and they did a really good job, keeping things clear. We did have to do valet parking; parking ourselves was not an option, but they were really fast and bringing our car around when we needed to leave.

The tall (hispanic??) bald gentleman who was taking care of breakfast was in a bar height chair sound asleep. I watched as he slumped further and further until he almost fell out of the chair while the other attendant was busy replenishing the food. Then he got up and started doing something. It was quite sad to watch. I would say ditch the chicken sausages and links. They were nasty. People like pork bacon and pork sausage. Maybe offer the other optin as well, but at least have the option. The security was great - I felt a lot safer knowing the vallet doormen were not letting anyone in who looked suspicious who didn't have a key. Easy walking distance to Penn Presby was extremely convenient and I felt safe walking in the area
