“This hotel was a great spot in terms of convenience, location, and price. It was clean, comfortable and well maintained. There was a nice pool area with fire pits and free breakfast was served in the morning. There was plenty of free parking.”

“It is overall not bad, I'm relatively indifferent about it. There are far worse places to stay, but for a Hilton the room wasn't cleaned until the last day of our stay when we brought it up. The room smelled a little like mildew. The staff were nice though when approached and the amenities were nice. Breakfast wasn't bad.”
