The room was fine. The check in process was quick and easy. I didn't sleep well because the mattress and pillows were too soft. We didnt like that there wasn't a microwave in the room. By the time we realized it, my husband and I were already in our night clothes so my husband just didnt eat his lunch leftovers.

That information should have been published because we were needing an early breakfast before leaving to continue our drive to Florida. They did provide a bag breakfast to go but it really wasn’t an equitable substitute in my opinion. Had I known this, I would have chose another comparable hotel nearby which there are many of.

Room was clean. Staff was friendly and accommodating. Did not know there was construction happening in the first floor and lobby area.l which meant that hot breakfast was not available due to remodeling. We specifically look for a decent breakfast offering when we book so that was very disappointing. Also, night stand in room is not sufficient space for person with cpap.

The bed was comfortable and the room was very clean. The hotel was being renovated, so there was not the continental breakfast. They did provide a grab n go bagged breakfast. That was disappointing, and I feel that a discounted price should have been given, or at least revealed at booking.

Under renovation without informing the client no restaurant. No hot breakfast. No amenities in the lobby noisy as heck next to the freeway. I’d never stay here again. I’ve paid for two different nights to and from the airport. Purchasd through hotels.com non-refundable as I thought we’d simply spend the night on our drive home. I can’t get my mine back so I’ll eat it and stay somewhere else.

The room was not what I expected. The lack of useful space for me and my husband's luggage was not convenient. The shelves and the rolling desk and chair were not accommodating. We could have used more towels and washcloths. The room reminded me are a preschool classroom to be honest with the colors and the "cloak closet" along with the hooks on the wall. Other than the design of the room, it was very clean.

The room was nice and clean, the staff was friendly and the facility was well maintained The noise, you could hear all the road noise off the high way it was horrible and all night. The walls must be paper thin because I could also hear the guest in the next room snoring then switch his c-pap. So there again the noise. You would have thought when they built the hotel they took into account to add extra sound buffering installation and thicker windows to seal out the noise.ahame cuz otherwise it a nice hotel

The front desk person was lovely and helpful to all. Truly one of a kind! On line the dog/pet fee was $50 and when checking in, it was $75. A bit disappointed about that - needs to be changed asap. Lots of hotels in the area and we picked because the pet fee was lower, which actually it is the same. Too bad.
- 3/5
Breakfast, however, was disappointing. The food quality was poor, and during both mornings of my stay, the pancake machine was placed out with a sign stating it was “out of service,” which was confusing because why bring it out then. Additionally, while the hotel advertises 24-hour complimentary coffee, when I went closer to 8 p.m, the coffee machine was only dispensing cold coffee. Overall, the property is a nice, cute spot with potential, but the experience was a bit underwhelming.

We got in around 11 PM last night. The lady that was there and checked us in was in a really bad mood and pretty rude. She also insisted on charging $75 for our little dog, when the website said when we booked the room that the pet charge was $50. I showed her that and she said it didn't matter because it was a third-party website. Pretty poor customer relations skills, in my opinion.

The room was so small that they couldnt even get a microwave in there. There isnt any room for the bowl of ice. You have to go to the commons area to get the white bowls & leave it in ur bathroom next to the sink unless you want to set your bowl of ice on the floor. The space for you to use to eat in ur room was a hospital pullout table. The walls are paper-thin so u hear everything. No draws to place ur clothes in. Just a long in space but very short in width bar comes out of the wall for the tv. Its like they took a normal room and put a wall in the middle and made 2 rooms out of the 1. Even the phone in the room looked like it was cut in half & was only half a phone. There was no table space for a phone. So they had to mount it on the wall. The ONLY pro for the room was that the bed & pillows were soft and comfy. I was told by the guy at the front desk that if i wanted to check in 5 minutes early I would have to pay him another $80. This hotel felt very much like a college dorm with a commons area. There was a massive party going on in the common area the whole time I was there. They also wanted $5 for a candy bar (Reese's Cup) & $4.50 for a bottle of water. I ended up leaving at 7pm to get away from the craziest and had to end my get-away & relax vaca earily bc i couldnt relax... DONT COME HERE!

The hotel is very nice. Comfortable beds but small room. They do use the space and give you places to put your things. Only complaint no coffee makeup or ice bucket in room. Coffee tea and hot chocolate in lobby. Ice the ice is also in the lobby.is also in lobby. Toilet paper and Kleenex are one ply. Spend a little more on them and stop going cheap because we use more when it is that thin.

Basic accommodations with friendly phrases everywhere to keep you smiling. If you've never stayed at a Tru by Hilton, think of what a hotel by Ikea might be like and you'll get a really good idea of a Tru. It's very basic, colorful, and full of witty sayings at every turn. The bed was comfortable and breakfast was good. The location is next to lots of other hotels and tins of fast food and low price restaurant options. Tru had several EV chargers and all were in working order except one. We didn't have any trouble charging our car. Easy place to park.

The facility is a typical TRU. Nice clean but no where to put your clothes other than a pipe attached to the wall. Literally had to live out of my suitcase on the floor.

Pretty nice place to stay, great breakfast and staff service. I have noticed a few thing, considering this is a Hilton, I expected extremely clean rooms, there was some trash left in the room that was under center night table, I also found there was rust and water damage on the escutcheon. There are minor things, but because it's Hilton I have to review these findings.

Television did not work in the room. But they told me they were just sorry about that. No further action taken. The place was moderately clean. Bathroom was kind of gross. Even though it's a dog friendly hotel, there was no real place to walk the dog Overall, if you have a chance to stay somewhere else, I probably would
