    One; it’s called ‘Hilton Gardens’ and almost all the pictures show the beautiful roof top garden. But when i got there (on a holiday weekend) we where told that the roof top garden is actually part of a restaurant that operates on the property but is not owned by the Hilton. the restaurant was closed therefore there is no access to the garden. so the namesake and most attractive feature is not available to hotel guests whenever the restaurant is close, WHAT? Two; the fitted sheets didn’t fit the bed. As soon as we got in it they popped off the mattress and despite several attempts to put them on as soon as we got in the bed they came back off. we told housekeeping but nothing was done. sleeping on a bare mattress in a hotel pretty gross! it was an okay stay but it could have been a lot better!

    What I appreciated about the hotel was its location; it wasn't too busy in the mornings or at night. The cleanliness and the quality of the room were excellent for both my wife and me. Additionally, I enjoyed the rooftop patio, which offered a variety of food and drinks. The bed sheets and mattress were of low quality, making them somewhat uncomfortable, but still sleepable.

    Overall a great hotel, just some minor issues. There were Starbucks drinks and food containers left in the fridge, the toilet seat lid/cover was fully detached, and the hook for the towels fell off the wall because there was no screw to hold it in place. Other than that, had a great stay in an unbeatable location!

    The Seville restaurant and servers there were fantastic/ and the food was delicious- we tried to get a drink at the bar at 10:30pm - but when we got to the bar Saturday night - the bartender told us….. as you can see I have already put all the liquor away & we r closing early/ the lobby bar was supposed to be open until 11pm Saturday night / it was disappointing - otherwise / the hotel was great !

    Nope. Agent agreed to take my bag but wouldn't go a single step farther, telling me to return after 3. When I called around 2 to see if there was a room for me, the person who answered asked if I'd done any preliminary check in or left me name. I had tried hard to do so but was bizarrely refused. The room was fine and I only used it to sleep (obvs), but the check in colored my impression of this hotel.

    I give them a three out of 10 there's no ice machines on the floors the refrigerator was not working and they knew as soon as I checked in I was never moved to another room with a working refrigerator when they knew immediately after I checked in that the refrigerator was not working and no one never came to repair the refrigerator or put another refrigerator in when I had insulin and food that had to be left and stored in the car because of that this is one location that I will never visit again and I do not highly recommend

    Stayed here for a race, I usually sleep like garbage the first night at a hotel. This time I was surprised how well I slept, the only unwelcome noise was an occasional loud car which there isn’t much they can do about that but couldn’t hear the hall noise couldn’t hear the rooms next to us and the air conditioner was a normal white noise sound. The bathroom was nice, everything was clean and it was all well laid out, places to set everything out I wanted to set out good outlet placements bed and pillows were comfortable and great black out curtain situation

    Clean, nice staff, secure, excellent lication, the room was spaceous and nice. The main issue was that I got charged around 33% more than the price that was shown on Booking, paid with a credit card on site. It was difficult to notice it at first since it was my first time in the US, and the hotel reserved a deposit for each night of the stay, which was ultimately returned to me. This deposit initially clouded the total price for me, which I only realised after getting back home to Europe. Booking tried to contact Hilton, received no response, thus promised that the difference would be deposited back to me from Booking's side, after which they would stay to deal with Hilton to cover themselves for the difference. Its been 1.5 months and the issue is still not resolved. Other issues with the property - the room was cold, with no option to raise the temperature (the weather outside was cold as well). This led to the heater starting and stopping quite frequently, and the noise of it shutting down was pretty loud - heard as a bang somewhere above the bed, as if there was a sort of a valve that had a really loud and unsmooth closing sound. I logged onto the TV with my Youtube channel, but no matter if I shut the TV off - next time I turned it on it was always playing these random Hilton videos on Youtube, cluttering my view history with these random videos and messing up my algorithm. I guess that's one way of collecting views huh.

    The check in person was friendly and explained everything to the couple before us but when we stepped up to counter she only asked my name and for my credit card. She the charged my card after j told her that I already paid through booking. She just ignored me. I had to call my card to dispute the charges which took several weeks.

However, the room heater was limited to a maximum temperature of 74°F and only cycled on briefly every hour or so for a couple minutes. As a result, the room became quite cold at night, and I didn’t sleep very well because of it.

    It's two hotels and poorly explained as to how that works (one person at the front desk, when I was asking where a pick-up entrance was said: "you're in the wrong hotel"! When I asked why he had a shirt on the stated 'my hotel', he said 'it was the luck of the draw'. Went to the bar and, although it wasn't very busy, stood there for about 3-4 minutes before the bartender acknowledged me and asked what I wanted. Ad shows a lawn in front of the Hilton Garden, but apparently one had to go over to 'the other' hotel and go up 3 floors before you could see what was advertised (my room looked into the butt in of several buildings that came together behind it).

I would absolutely stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a reliable and well-kept place to stay. This hotel truly made a frustrating trip much better.

    When I asked to switch, the front desk girl said she could only move me if I hadn’t touched anything in the room — a completely unreasonable condition, especially since the issue was caused by them. I hadn’t touched anything, but even if I did, they still should correct the room and re-clean it as this is not guests’ fault. She was not professional, dismissive, and came across as outright rude during the conversation. I was offered another room, but it was on a very low floor with a barely visible view of the landmark — still far from what was promised and paid for. Overall, the experience felt dishonest and frustrating. Between the lack of transparency, unhelpful attitude, and failure to deliver what I booked, I would not stay here again and would caution others to be very careful when booking.
