I don't usually write negative reviews and generally try to give businesses the benefit of the doubt, but my experience with this hotel was extremely disappointing. Due to a trip being canceled, I needed to cancel my reservation and provided three days' notice. Rather than working with me to find a reasonable solution, Elise was rude and completely unwilling to help. I even asked if my stay could simply be moved to another night, but that option was refused outright. It became very clear that customer service was not a priority. The only concern seemed to be collecting payment, regardless of the circumstances. To make matters worse, I was threatened with being reported if I refused to pay the fees they were demanding. Throughout the process, I felt treated with a lack of respect and basic courtesy. A little understanding and flexibility would have gone a long way, especially when I provided advance notice. Unfortunately, this experience left a very negative impression, and I would not stay at this property again.

Very friendly staff and proximity to our venue.

There wasn’t really anything I didn’t like. Kind of wish breakfast was included in the price but that wasn’t a big deal either.

Hilton Garden Inn, thank you for accommodating my co-worker and I with 2 rooms last minute and at almost midnight after 2 hotels in the area OVERBOOKED & cancelled us on arrival. NATHANIAL, your customer service was extraordinary and professional! You reaching out to let us know we didn’t have to move rooms for the 2 night stay was the icing on the cake! The hotel is very clean, rooms are updated and breakfast was yummy. Thank you again! Jennifer from Miami
