Absolutely terrible customer service
The hotel was overbooked. The customer service and communication was horrific. I waited in line for 90 minutes at check in - only to be told they had no room for me and I was being moved to a different Hilton property 27 miles away. I incurred 175 dollars of Uber fees that I was not compensated for - was never apologized to - got no upgrade and it took be 90 minutes to get into the city the next day. In 25 years of work travel this was my worst hotel experience by far.

Everything was great but I like to walk. I was on 5th fl and took staircase 3 I believe -- by Terrace elevator. The door to lobby didn't open. I took terrace exit and walked around terrace but it was blocked. I went back and had to go down the steps and all the way around. Please put up better signage. Thanks

They charged me 25$ to stay there that would be a credit at the hotel bar or restaurant, then refused to accept it as payment. In addition, the continental breakfast seemed like it was included but they charged me 40$ for bad food and refused to take the 25 credit. So it felt like I was mugged.

Would have loved a fridge in room, stairways (emergency egress) are very difficult to find. I would have used stairs v elevators especially during peak times. A conventional coffee maker in room would also be great (keurig) otherwise the rooms are clean, comfortable, a bit on the smallish side, but the hotel is in a very walkable neighborhood with lots of nice restaurants, (the hotel restaurants are pricey and have a very limited menu)

Mostly wonderful
Most of the staff was wonderful - Tes (bellmen - both of them! ), Ronnie (security), Jamar, Silen, Gaimar (Gaiman?), Arthur, the team at breakfast - frindly, welcoming and so helpful. However, one bartender was just rude. Wouldn't acknowledge you, never said 'hello' - acted as if he was doing you a favor. It wasn't just me - he treated all the customers this way. Saturday evening, he was working the Sidelines bar. Friday evening, he was in the other bar. No fridge in the room was a bit of a surprise.
