Room was a bit shabby (in need of paint and a good grout cleaning in shower) and the bar sink didn't work. Breakfast was great (especially made to order omelettes), all staff we encountered were helpful and friendly. We were not given our "Hilton Honors Silver" status gift or the wifi info at our late night check in, so had to ask for those. We love the water stations and coffee available all hours. Overall it was a good enough stay.

Out of all the places we could choose from, we stayed here for the cook to order breakfast and breakfast options. Especially last minute and it being Easter weekend. The check in staff were super friendly but it took awhile at night to get bedding for the sofa. We almost got stuck in the garage elevator. No sign on the parking garage level only on ground level. And it was $55 for parking! But the location was perfect. Right next to the bridge to see the bats or walk along the lake. Walking distance to restaurants and bars.
