Great hotel but thin walls.
The convenience of the location was great. Easy and friendly check in. Rooms have fun decor. Only negative was that the walls were thin and we could hear the people in the room next to us pretty clearly.

Overall good stay
Hotel has a very nice theme. Only issues was the TV wasn’t working. They had to bring a new tv up to the suite. The coffee bar wasn’t restocked in the room and no one showed up to give me coffee packs after calling the front desk. They informed me I could go to the lobby for coffee if I wanted to.

10/10 Exceptional

Loved the College town concept and the staff & service were excellent. We were there for my husband's birthday and they surprised him with gifts & free breakfast & drink vouchers in the room. The rooftop pool area is beautiful. They also comped our parking. We couldn't have asked for a better stay!

6/10 Good

This use to be a pretty good place to stay for an older hotel. Since Hilton has taken over the nightly rate is stupidly priced for an old hotel with absolutely no perks whatsoever.
