As a Diamond Honors member, I stay at a lot of Hiltons. The staff here in general are not the best – I’m not the type who needs to be patronized and hate insincere hotel greetings, but on many occasions during my stay I walked by the front desk when no one else was around and the staff did not bother to look up and say hello or goodbye as just a common courtesy. Poor training or no motivation? Also, I asked for my room to be made up specifically because I was running low on shampoo, soap and conditioner – they came and did the room but did not replenish any of the supplies as requested. So I asked a second day if they could replenish the supplies, they came and dropped off about 3 body creams (which I already had and did not need), no conditioner and two shampoo. They also did not replenish the coffee or coffee cups when used cups and empty creamer were sitting right next to where they left the shampoo. This is just plane laziness and ticking off tasks rather than really listening to guests. Also, I was really looking forward to using the hot tub, which was out of order. When I asked if it might get fixed during my stay, the guy laughed and said it had been out of service for well over one year. What possible excuse can there be for not being able to fix this for over a year? If you do not plan to have it, why have it sit there embarrassingly out of service and to disappoint guests? It shows a poor commitment to maintaining the hotel, also noting that the clock in the pool area was not running and on two days I had to run back to my room to use my towels as there were no clean towels by the pool. Just plain sloppiness. Lastly, as a Diamond member, we used to get free breakfasts no questions asked. Now there is some new choice system which was poorly communicated – I apparently received honors points instead of free breakfasts, but only learned this on check out and was not given a choice. So I got surprised with a large food bill when I assumed I would be getting free breakfasts. Very disappointing if you are taking things away from customers and poorly communicating about this, this change is not a good one for customers and NO, you are NOT offering us more flexibility if we are not aware of the choices, you have only added complexity and disappointment. When I complained about this at check out, the front desk person had zero compassion, never apologized or thanked me for being a Diamond member. Nothing huge was wrong but there were certainly enough small things wrong and clear signs the staff here fall short of what I expect when I visit a Hilton.
