Pros: Tired hotel, all staff seemed confused, lack of cohesion / working as a team. At the end of the day, this is more of a $250 a night hotel. No music at dinner, no service at the pool (dirty/used plates and glasses sat for hours), unhelpful check-in staff, and interior design that needs a SERIOUS remodel. Would NOT recommend this property unless you're needing to be close to the racetrack.

Complimentary water bottles, very friendly checkin & checkout front desk service, and the comfortable, spacious room befitted a 4-star experience.
Cons: POOL: There are pluses but problems stand out. Positives: 3 family heated pools & 1 heated adult only pool away from other 3 pools. Poolside food quality was actually very decent. Would have been a far better experience without constant concern about wasp attacks :) Negatives: * Food service: When the female FS attendant handed the menus to me, I asked her to come back in 2 minutes. She reappeared 2+ hrs later, far after I'd flagged down another attendant, filled our order AND halfway done with food. * Pests: The poolside is inundated with MANY MANY WASPS. They are highly attracted to food so can barely eat without being swarmed. Not an exaggeration, at all. The wasps leave you alone when there's no food but they swarmed in everytime we lifted the linen napkins that we used to cover our food. I mentioned the problem to the female attendant that came by and said the hotel should needs to take care of the problem. She just shrugged and said yeah. * General: Pool size & design were standard, nothing special.

Pros: The breakfast was EXCELLENT! Much better than your normal spread at a hotel of this caliber. They also have coffee available 24/7, which is a godsend, and the coffee is GOOD! They keeps a big bowl of hand-fruit out 24/7 also - a really nice touch. The staff was wonderful as well! Professional, extremely friendly, totally accommodating - just really nice. My room was great and - although it faced the gas station next door - was very comfortable and CLEAN. Nice bathroom products. Just a really great experience.

Cons: I didn't like having to pay for parking, especially at a location that was so - um - utilitarian. The mini fridge in my room was clean, but I was afraid I'd break it if I pulled the handle too hard. It was kinda shabby and no freezer. Since the hotel is dog-friendly, it could really use a designated dog-walk area with actual grass. As it was, I walked my dog on the grounds of the Marriott next door.

Pros: The complimentary breakfast we really good. The pool and jacuzzi area were really nice and clean. The room was a great size for our needs. Bed was comfy, coffee was great.
Cons: The refrigerator door opened awkwardly inside the tiny kitchen, making it hard to get anything in or out of the fridge. The remote to the fan was missing so I did have to call the front desk for one. On the plus side, service was speedy and they had a guy come up with a remote rather fast and problem was taken care of. Cable tv did not have many channels to choose from and the window view was that of a wall. But I did settle for the cheaper valued room. I guess I get what I pay for.

Pros: I had a studio suite and so I had a full kitchen....could have been nice if I needed it. Room was very quiet on the fifth floor. I guess if you have a suite you don't get breakfast. It is close to a lot of attractions in So. Cal, so it is convenient.
Cons: I would have liked to have breakfast but my price, although $100 higher than the Hampton next door that does offer free breakfast...not so much the price but the convenience and time saving. I am handicapped and they still charge for parking....did not appreciate that.

Pros: The breakfast staff was great other than that I'll never stay or recommend to anyone
Cons: Could have told us about paying for parking. The gate was broken entering the parking lot, they said there was a sign telling us that it was extra to park, didn't see it cause the gate was broken. Cable was out elevator was out. Loud noises all night had to call to get instructions on how to change thermostat. Blackout curtains did virtually nothibg to block the sun in the early am so after hardly any sleep up at the crack of dawn from the light.

Pros: Great breakfast, great service. Easy check in and check out.
Cons: Load fan in the bathroom (4th floor), probably coming from roof top. Could not hear it in the room. (Faint) Did not interrupt sleep.
8.8 Excellent
Pros: I liked the coffee maker and small refrigerator in the room. The bathroom toiletries were very nice. Bed was comfortable.
Cons: The bathroom had no exhaust fan, so it steamed up and you needed it bad! Pillows were not good on the neck, too soft. Also, it would have been nice to have had complimentary continental breakfast. They have a breakfast buffet, but you have to pay for it, not included with your stay. There were no vending machines and there was one ice machine on the 3rd floor. They had an area in the lobby to buy snacks, but would have been more convenient to have vending on each floor.

7.9 Good
Pros: Clean and quiet. Close to everything we wanted to do without the rowdy crowds.
Cons: I paid for a balcony room. I had a view of a roof! It was useless. The staff even knew what room, #214. They said they felt bad for people who stay in that room but didn't offer me anything to make it better. They know it's a waste but still charge extra for it. I was on vacation with my son so I didn't make a big fuss, but if they know that's a terrible room, do something about it.
7.1 Good
Pros: Restaurant employees were great, food was great, rooms were clean and comfortable.
Cons: Front desk that checked us in treated us different than the people ahead of us bc we we weren’t HHonors members and ‘booked through a third party’. We didn’t get the same happy friendly treatment. Joke’s on her, we are HHonors members and called Hilton directly and let them know and they made it right.

8.3 Excellent
Pros: Absolutely TERRIFIC staff. This is the most important factor because it’s the path to an easy and satisfactory resolution if ANY issue arises. Unfortunately one did, but they were awesome.
Cons: Despite the public areas being spotless and in perfect repair, a number of small details in the rooms belie the property’s age. Small spots of missing paint, peeling wallpaper, a loose thermostat revealing a hole in the wall, a shelf broken off in the shower, inconsistencies such as some rooms thermostatically controlled, others being controlled at the window unit (despite having the same thermostat). Another item is a policy, apparently, of room refrigerators being turned down as rooms are reset, meaning the fridges take some time to cool down for use, and then only if you know to look for and adjust the controls. I am a relatively easy guest. I don’t typically require much in the way of facilities. I have only a few “musts” for hotel stays. Reasonable parking (10), clean rooms (10), reasonably comfortable beds and pillows (10), competent staff (10), and maybe the single biggest item...quiet. Unfortunately this last was a big failure. The problem involved an either poorly designed or poorly maintained HVAC system. A large ventilation fan serves a “stack” of rooms between floors. The one adjacent our first room was noisy and could be heard in the room as an uneven rumbling (imagine a big truck idling outside) and produced a vibration that could be felt in one bed. There was no way sleep was possible. Fortunately there was another room available. In that room there was no vibration felt, and the noise, while present, was mostly heard in the bathroom and controlled if the door was kept shut. Still audible, but not to the point it interfered with sleep. (At least partially because I travel with a fan I sleep with. Absent that sound, I don’t know how someone else might have fared. The fan on the room AC refused to stay on despite being set that way.) On one hand I may be particularly sensitive to this problem. On the other hand the maintenance man was familiar with “the issue.” I can’t imagine where we would have been had there not been another room available.
