The staff were very good. The housekeeping was good but it kind of bothered me that they didn't change the drinking glasses every day. The tub/shower was good but it was a bit elevated to get into for a person with hip issues. The breakfast was good.

Great hotel - though my advice to fellow travelers is to book directly through Hilton and not through Expedia. Upon arrival, Hilton had no record of my stay via Expedia, I had to wait for them to track my booking through Expedia and was unable to get the room id requested.
