Not what I had hoped for. The rooms were very clean and new and everything worked, but the area is spotty around it, and the Food was sub par, small portions, and expensive.

Great location, comfortable and all the “western” comforts and amenities we expect from Hilton. The bellhops- men working at street level were awesome. Front desk staff/girls were pretty clueless. But thanks to the guys downstairs we got everything we needed.
