We booked a double queen. When we arrived we asked for a bigger room. We got a nice suite. They gave us a hard time. Didn't want to upgrade us. But finally gave in. This room is a hundred bucks more, but I'm not sure why. It's not large. But it is nice. I just don't see it being a hundred more. We really just wanted ground floor, and this is all there was.
Apparently, they only give bottled water to diamond and not gold. That's what we were told. They made us pay a dollar for each water. I found this odd. It's not a big deal. But this is the first Hilton where we had to pay for water.
There is a full kitchen, which we didn't need. But it would be nice. A living area. A bedroom. And a bathroom. The toulet is super loud when flushed. And there is like a 4-inch gap at the bottom of the door, leaving little privacy. The television is washed out and white. It's hard to see some things. Wi-Fi works well.
It was pretty loud in the hallway. We could hear people talking, or walking by, etc, all hours of the night. Stressed out our fur babies.
The evening reception was nice. Soup and salad. Beer and wine. Fruit. Cheese. Cookies. There are many things to choose from. This was very nice. The lobby is pretty nice as well. Breakfast was what you expected at most Hilton properties. Most have flavored coffee creamer. This one did not. We skipped on breakfast.
I just love this place! We are on the 4th floor. 2 queens with al at a full kitchen! This room is huge! Has everything you need. And so many goodies. Wayer. Soda. Candy. Chips. Readybin the room and complimentary. The bed was comfortable. So thankful! We're traveling across the country. The last 2 hotels had rock-hard beds. This one, I slept comfortably all night.
The television is a bit small for the room. I love that they have a little side table on each side of the bed instead of just the middle like most. They've actually addressed most things I would find to complain about. They're on it here.
The pool is gorgeous! A huge 15-person hot tub that cascades into the pool. All indoor. The pool is warm. Still a bit cold, but not freezing. There is a radio with a volume dial on the wall. You can turn it loud or off. It's almost like being at a spa. Two elevators in the lobby. That was nice. Most have one. Not too far from restaurants. Very quiet all night. I didn't hear any other guests from our room.
Breakfast was okay. Just some premade selections popped into the microwave. Well, fresh waffles. Also, fruits or yogurt.
Wifi was terrible. Disconnected a lot and very slow when connected.
Noce littel area. Stopped in after going to the Cadillac ranch cars. Should have stopped in before. They sell spray paint to paint the cars.
Small gift shop with mostly t-shirts. A few other novelty items. No food or drink. There is a soda machine out back. The staue is pretty cool. 3 Cadillacs with Elvis, John Wayne, and Willie Nelson. Lol.
Lady upside was super nice. Definitely stop in. Cute place.
Pretty cool stop. Make sure to stop by the store at the corner, where the 2nd amendment cowboy is, and buy some spray paint! You're allowed to paint the cars! It was pretty cool to see. Not a huge attraction. We were there, maybe 20 minutes. Really a photo op.
Make sure to pick up your trash! There are like 8 bins right there. So much garbage everywhere. Let's be respectful and not ruin this! It's definitely a fun stop. Keep in mind that it's off the road a bit. A few min walk down a dirt path.
This may be the least hospitable Hilton property we've stayed at. If you're a gold member, don't expect an upgrade. We had 2 queens, and when we arrived, we asked for an upgrade to the king suite. He says they are sold out. When we got to our room, I made a mock booking, and it let me book a king suite. So... yeah.... Must come out his paycheck....
We asked for 1st floor. Got 3rd. Didn't give us water upon check-in. We had to go back for it. The two front desk clearks working at 4:45 on Sunday were not friendly. Super bummed the Tepenyaki restaurant was sold out for the night.
The two queen bed rooms in the back are ridiculously small. Think cruise ship! It was like, woah. No couch. One small, hard chair, and a desk. We stayed at a Hilton in Barstow last night, double the size, for less. I guess location. The wifi was horrible. I finally just disconnected and used my phone network.
I was bummed to hear the pool is closed half the year, but I understood why when I saw it. Lol. It was frozen solid. At least they had my cookies! Yum!
The bed was okay. But only 3 pillows on each bed. I guess someone gets one, and someone gets two. Odd. One soap, one shampoo, one conditioner. Again, odd for a room with two beds. You have to climb over a bed to get to the thermostat, because theres like 2 inches of space on the side of the bed. No heat in the bathroom. Brrrr!
Friendly staff upon arrival. Gave us snacks and drinks. We were hoping for the ground floor. But all the ground floor is King, and we needed two queens. Pet friendly! We don't usually travel with pets, but are moving cross country and dreaded Motel 6 types. So thankful there are Hilton brands all along our route that acceptsl pets!
The room was nice. Spacious with a couch, sitting chair, table, and a desk with 2 chairs, that can be used for meals. Large television. Two large windows that open for fresh air. I did find a noticeable long curly black hair on the white shower curtain. (I'm blond). We used the laundry. The washers are pretty small. But did the job. Soap is $4. And $1.50 to wash, and $1.00 to dry. Not bad!
There's only a dresser between the two beds. It would be nice if there were some kind of small table or stand on the opposite side of each bed. The bed is pretty firm. I personally prefer a soft bed. It's pretty loud. We heard stomping all night. You can hear people's televisions and people talking. All night.
While looking for a lost pet toy, we found a floss toothpick under the bed, a food wrapper behind the couch, and a water bottle cap medt to the far bed in a corner. I'm glad we brought disinfectant spray! They charged us our room fee. Then, a separate charge for 19 dollars. Not sure why. But in the night, they charged another 30. Weird. Why 3 separate charges?
Breakfast was pretty good. Western omlets, potatoes, biscuits and gravy, waffles, oatmeal, toast, bagels, fruit, coffee, juices. The attendent working was very nice. (Don't forget to tip them!)
There are so many food joints around. Like 30 to choose from. It's right next to a huge open-air shopping mall. Huge! I wish we weren't moving and I could go shop! Haha.
What is the point of this? Stupid.
Isn't this just somebody's house? How stupid.
Awesome place to stop and visit. You could easily spend about 2 hour there. They have a 7D ride that's kinda lame, but free. Don't expect Disney rides. Lol. And a quick video on the history plays every 30 min. Outside there are 3 platforms to walk out to. ( Short walks). And telescopes to see out.
Definitely worth the stop. Very heartfelt. The beams are from the actual world trade center, and the flag flown there is a flag that was flown at the Pentagon.
