Great Hotel

This will be our third stay at the Hilton Garden Inn. WE normally book this great hotel on the way to the Goodguys car show. It is clean, quiet and within a very close proximity to where we are going. I would definitely recommend this hotel and it is close to many restaurants and Whole foods

The hotel hallways and room smelled moldy or mildewy. The first room we checked into smelled awful so we asked to be moved. The second room on the 4th floor was slightly better but still smelled. We won’t stay here again as we have mold and mildew allergies.
