Room 428.
Walked into a strong odor of musty, stale air. HVAC unit and carpets most likely haven't been deep cleaned in years. Window is screwed closed so no opportunity to get fresh air. Colleague staying on 5th floor noted the same musty, stale air in his room.
Tub & shower wall grout dark with mold & mildew stains.
Electrical outlet cover missing - on wall by sofa. Any child could have touched live wires if parents didn't see missing cover. Took pic and showed to front desk. Why hadn't housekeeping reported and get repaired?
Floor lamp that would be plugged into this outlet also missing, making room dark & dingy.
Entire hotel in need of a refresh. One gets the impression the absolute minimum is spent on maintenance and upkeep. Carpets well worn throughout. Brass era elevators with call button in lobby upside down.
Hotel illuminated sign not visible from road. Overgrown trees surrounding have not been trimmed in years.
I realize that all businesses are challenged with staffing issues. The items reported on here are the result of the age of the property and the overall lack of care.
There's many Hilton hotels to choose from in the Capital region. No reason to return here and would recommend other travelers seek newer properties.
