Staff was great inside the building, parking attendants were greatly unhelpful to customers of the hotel! Room was clean and mostly quiet! The atmosphere on th ground floor and the beach was very loud and extremely party oriented! Beware!

Hilton Garden Inn Ft Myers
Service at the desk was very good. The room was not as shown in the online picture and smelled of mold. Stayed two hours and got 75$ of total bill back. Terrible.
