The rooms are cjean
I was surprised to still see carpet in parts of the suite. Full kitchen was nice. The beds are comfy especially if you like firm.Lots of pillows. We enjoined our 3 night stay. I had yo add on a night and the clerk initially said there were no available rooms but shd kept loooking, and called as soon as there was a vacancy. We didint even to move to another room. Great stay!
Great place to stay. Right off the freeway. Dining options are pretty good. Loved the huge room and offering of water and coffee in the reception area is a nice touch.
Service provided by Gabriella from housekeeping was excellent, helpful, friendly and efficient. Maintenance of the property was poorly performed and half the desk staff seemed poorly trained.
Wonderful service! Nice room and six of us fit very comfortably.

Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities
The young man who worked the front desk was very friendly. We were surprised at the condition of the hotel, which looked well worn considering the price was over $200. We went up to a room on the second floor after we were advised that there had been some difficulty with the plumbing. Right outside of our room was a horrible terrible smell of sewer, gas. I immediately went downstairs and talked to the young man who said there’s nothing he could do about it since we purchased our ticket through Expedia. We went back up to the room, the carpet in between the two double beds had yet to be vacuumed. There were crumbs on the carpeting. The bathroom had exposed plumbing, no cabinetry beneath the sink and the finish of the veneer wood was well worn and peeling off. The toilet was dangerously low for anyone with knee issues. My mom is 89 years old and had to use the tub to pull herself up from the toilet. I’ve never been in a commercial property with such a low toilet This property by no means is reflective of the normal Hilton stays we have incurred over our lifetime. I am asking to be fully reimbursed for our stay. Anything you can do to facilitate a full reimbursement would be appreciated for using Expedia again is in jeopardy.
We can’t say enough great things about this hotel! We were treated very nicely by the staff and the room was very comfortable for our 9 night stay for the balloon fiesta! We would 10/10 recommend staying here! Clean, comfortable and relaxing stay! Thank you!
This stay was excellent and by far the best hotel I’ve ever stayed at! Check out time was new to me, no rush in anything, took our time to leave. Spacious and clean!

Good but could be better
Hotel staff was welcoming and accommodating. I have stayed at this hotel in the past and was surprised at how worn down it was. Physical repairs are needed but it didn’t impact the comfort and cleanliness. Hilton needs to spend some $$ on this tired hotel to make it excellent again.
Great room, however we booked a king room months ago and that is not what we got. We were told after discovering this that it’s extended stay so if a corporate tenant extends theres nothing they can do. Staff was so nice and great breakfast. Very clean.
