I really liked the room. They were out of parking so I gad to park in a parking garage a few blocks away, which was a bit inconvenient when leaving with all my luggage. The outlets near the bed were too loose to keep devices plugged in so I could not use them.

Loved the property nice, clean updated room but was falling apart alittle bit. In the middle of the night we woke up to the smell of cigarette smoke both nights we stayed. No extra rooms to move into.

Absolutely Gorgeous
The room was amazingly clean. All the staff that worked was very polite. The food was delicious. I would definitely recommend my friends and family to stay at the downtown Hilton. Having the skywalk to get to the Wells Fargo arena was brilliant.

Great location. I was told the parking lot is full and I would have to park on the street (but there were open spots). Outside at night, no security, beware if out at night alone.

The property is nice but front desk employees are not helpful. I changed my booking due to a concert reschedule and it took 45 minutes at check in to figure out how to fix it even though I had an email confirmation.
