Expected more from Hilton
Service at the front desk was very slow. We stayed here because it was attached to the events center/Wells Fargo Arena. The location was nice, but everything else was subpar. You have to pay almost $30 just to park your car. There is no information or map about the facility! The rugs and floors were very busy and made me dizzy! The breakfast buffet was the worst one I’ve ever been to - including free ones!! This was not free however, we had to pay $23 each for bacon, scrambled eggs, mystery muffins and burnt to a crisp pancakes!! If you need something such as butter, you’ll have to hunt someone down! Very disappointing and expensive stay☹️
Carpet very busy and made me dizzy.

The pool was freezing the whole time. They kept saying it was fixed but they were looking at their broken thermometer, not actually feeling the water. So the pool was never warm to swim in for days. Only complaint. Beautiful property.
