The carpet in the hallway was dirty. The AC in the room was loud and rattled. I woke up at midnight one night, and the room was warm. I tried to adjust the thermostat, but the batteries were dead. I had to get dressed at midnight and go to the front desk to ask for batteries. I changed them myself. The walls seem to be thin. We could hear kids running in the hallway and the room above us - we could hear the footsteps. The location was next door to a gas station/convenience store that play loud music on outdoor speakers at night. We could hear it when we were trying to sleep. The bed was comfortable. We enjoyed having breakfast and coffee every morning. The staff was very pleasant.

This is basically a Motel 6 with a Hilton badge on it. The hallway carpets were dirty and stained. The room didn’t have a coffee maker or microwave. The shower didn’t have enough water pressure. The breakfast was a joke. It was basically just bagels.

We spent one night here and had a comfortable stay. The room was spacious and we were even able to bring in our bikes. When I asked the front desk if the area was safe enough to leave our bikes on our car she recommended we bring them in and even offered to put them in their storage room if we didnt want to keep them in our room. The complimentary breakfast, had no hot food, besides bagels you can toast other than that just cold hard boiled eggs and cereal, they did have instant oatmeal. If you picked this hotel because of the pool, cancel your reservation because it no longer exists and they should update their pictures online.
