We had a quick stay for a tournament we were attending, but the hotel was great, staff very friendly and helpful, room clean and comfortable. Would definitely stay here again and recommend.
Staff was very sociable and helpful. Breakfast at the restaurant was delicious and affordable! The room and pool areas were clean and welcoming. We had a great visit and will definitely be using this Hilton again!
