Close to dining and rail station. I would have given it a better score but I was charged $5.00 for an extra bottle of water (the bottles in the room were complimentary...you would think asking for an extra one at the lobby desk for Hilton Honors members would have also been free of charge or a NOMINAL charge at best).

My room was so quiet it was like I was the only one on the floor. Felt very safe. Would definitely recommend this hotel. My only issue was the construction in the area made it confusing to get in the parking garage. Don’t trust your GPS for that part.

Lousy, old property, paper thin walls, and our safe wasn’t working. I made 4 calls in 2 days to get our safe opened. I finally had to go to the front desk and demand to talk to a manager, and then they fixed the safe in 10 minutes. Area around the hotel is not pretty, run down, not very safe.

The hotel was not clean. The bathroom offered no actual ventilation control and the fire alarm actually went off. There was heavy rust around the toilet and the wash clothes and bedding sheets were stained. The internet was terrible as well and the "smart" tv kept losing channel signal, so you couldn't watch anything without frequent disconnections. We asked for a do not disturb sign and were told multiple times that none were available, only to have one appear on our last nights stay. None of the house keeping spoke English, so you couldn't really communicate about simple things. Bottom line, I will never stay here again.
