My
family
and
I
stayed
here
for
an
extended
weekend
as
a
short
getaway.
Our
room
was
clean,
but
quite
small.
We
had
a
king
efficiency
studio
with
"twin"
sofa
bed.
My
children
sleep
on
a
twin
bed
at
home,
and
I
must
say
this
was
sub-twin
size
at
best.
On
the
other
hand,
the
king
bed
was
very
comfortable
and
adequately
sized.
Our
flight
came
in
early
and
we
did
end
up
having
to
wait
until
close
to
4pm
(the
"official"
check
in
time)
to
get
a
room.
The
front
desk
staff
kindly
kept
watch
over
our
luggage
and
even
gave
my
children
a
bag
of
chips
to
help
hold
over
their
hunger.
However,
we
still
had
to
busy
ourselves
and
find
a
real
meal
,
as
we
waited
nearly
4
hours
before
any
rooms
were
available.
I
can't
say
that
I
have
experienced
this
many
times
with
any
hotel
chain
I
have
ever
stayed
with.
Arriving
early
is
usually
not
a
problem,
but
I
could
see
that
one
front
desk
staff
in
particular
was
trying
very
hard
to
accommodate
us
as
best
as
she
could
(kudos
to
Rochelle!).
The
first
morning
we
were
here,
breakfast
was
well
stocked
and
had
ample
variety
of
hot
items
(including
eggs,
potatoes,
pancakes,
beef,
etc),
pastries,
cereal,
yogurt,
and
a
great
variety
of
fresh
fruit.
However,
the
second
day
was
very
disappointing.
I
came
out
to
eat
around
9:40
(breakfast
isn't
over
until
10:30)
to
find
almost
no
pastries,
none
of
the
fruit
medley,
no
bananas,
and
many
other
items
quickly
vanishing
and
not
to
be
replenished.
As
a
person
on
a
plant
based
diet,
a
variety
of
fresh
produce
is
essential.
However,
the
cafeteria
workers
(like
Lizbeth)
explained
the
situation
and
seemed
equally
frustrated
with
being
unable
to
meet
the
needs
of
the
guests.
Lizbeth
directed
me
to
whom
I
should
address
my
concerns.
I
went
to
front
office
and
was
met
with
EXEMPLARY
customer
service
from
Rochelle.
She
was
aware
of
my
health
issues
and
dietary
needs
and
went
above
and
beyond
the
call
to
go
to
a
nearby
store
to
purchase
some
fresh
fruit
and
additional
food
items
for
me.
This
level
of
customer
care
and
hospitality
is
rare
and
should
be
commended!
Employees
like
Rochelle
are
an
asset
to
the
Hilton
brand!
Rather
than
excuses
and
empty
apologies,
she
affirmatively
took
steps
to
rectify
the
situation.
Rochelle's
concern
and
actions
are
the
epitome
of
customer
service.
While
there
were
some
minor
cosmetic
issues
with
the
room
(peeling
wall
paper
in
the
bathroom,
touch
up
paint
needed)
that
I
felt
could
be
better,
this
was
an
overall
pleasant
stay.
The
hotel
is
walking
distance
to
many
shops,
restaurants
and
NYC
hot
spots.
But
the
amazing
staff,
especially
Rochelle
at
the
front
desk,
is
what
sets
it
apart!
We
would
definitely
come
back
again.
