I think the Hilton did better than other properties nearby, like the Sheraton, but compared to other Hilton properties in other states not quite up to standard. We paid a lot more than the usual Hilton rate for less than we expected. The cookie upon welcome was a nice touch, but the cheap bottle of water with “this is your only water if you want more you have to buy” did really not align withHilton’s usual feel of exclusivity. It immediately made me feel like I’m staying in a cheap (very cheap) hotel. Other Hiltons would give Fiji water and have the fridge stocked with more (without mention that “this is your only water” even though it comes at a cost per bottle, that was nicer.) No bar fridge or microwave in the room. My parents room’s bathroom door was broken, huge negative for them (below standard for Hilton). Not enough towels, but more was provided on request which was good. Rooms extremely small, literally bumping into cupboard door or table while trying to get into bed (and I’m normal BMI). The view was very nice for 2 out of our 3 rooms. The rooftop was amazing and possibly one of my best experiences in NY. I would stay in the Hilton again but it’s really not up to par with other Hilton’s. Small changes can make a huge difference. It seems like Hilton was cutting costs on this property.
