Facilities

Gym is well liked and the pool is generally warm and in good condition, but guests noted occasional closure, wet corridors, and some worn or unfinished areas. On-site bar and restaurant exist yet hours or staffing can be limited, and the open-lot parking fee drew complaints.

When we arrived in the room I walked over to look out the window and the carpet was soaked from the air conditioning unit. I called down to report the issue and was told maintenance would be coming up. Hours later we decided to go check at the front desk. The guy had apparently forgotten about it and maintenance was already gone. No accommodation was made to get us out of the room and we were having to climb ober the bed to get in and out cause the floor was soaked. Next day maintenance came by and he said we'd have to move rooms. Said it would be a couple of hours. When I went to the desk to see how long we would have to wait the room was already available they jist didn't communicate that. We spent most of our trip sitting around waiting on this hotel instead of being able to go out. The pool was also closed. The only thing offered for the inconvenience was a free breakfast voucher. Very disappointed. This is my second time staying here and the last.

I checked in late, around 9PM. I parked my car about 50 ft from the entrance. I had to pay $10 to park for the night!!! It was not a secure lot, just a normal parking lot like most hotels that don’t have a secure lot or parking garage. Ridiculous! I feel I should get a refund since the description says “Uncovered self parking on site (USD 10 per night); includes in/out privileges. This implies there is an arm/gate to get in and out. It is a completely open lot. Ten dollars to park my car in an open lot! Front desk people not friendly. Beds and pillows were comfy, room was nice.

The room and facility was extremely clean and beds were very comfortable. Nice updated quiet room for a good nights rest! The pool was very nice and clean, in working order also. We did choose this hotel because they had a restaurant but when we got there we were told they weren’t open Sunday evenings. So be aware of that. Also breakfast was good but at an additional cost.

We had a decent check in experience and received text messages asking how our check in experience and first evening was—which was a really nice touch. We stayed 3 nights and did not receive any cleaning services. We did not have our DND on. This was really disappointing as we had been outside most days—it was hot and sticky. We would have liked to come back To a clean room with clean sheets and towels. When we told the front desk and inquired why the room wasn’t cleaned, his only response was “so you need more towels?” Additionally, the hallway and elevator to and from the pool was always wet with puddles throughout. No one cleaned it up— just put up a “wet floor” sign. It just felt like a lot of laziness happening in regard to cleanliness.

The hotel was not what I expected for the price I paid. Didn't look like they vacuumed in a while, general cleanliness was ok, but could see corners and areas that aren't generally trafficked we're not touched. The breakfast was not included, the staff seemed uninterested in helping and seemed as though you were bothering them, and general maintenance of the building showed it was lacking. For an 80 to 90 dollar a night room, what I got would be what I would expect; but for close to 200 a night, woefully inadequate. Go to Hampton Inn at Franklin Berry Farms, much better accomodations, staff and price.

Check-in was scheduled at 3pm. We arrived at 3:15pm and our room was not ready. We had to wait approximately 30 minutes for our room to be ready. There were dirty dishes in the hallway outside our door and the door across the hall throughout our entire stay. The lighting in the room was very poor and made it hard to see. The bed was extremely hard and uncomfortable. It almost felt as if sleeping on a plank of wood. There were dirty towels on the floor in the elevator and sitting on top of a trash can in the hallway. The staff cleared the hot breakfast at 10:25am when it was scheduled to end at 10:30am. However, Ms. Star at the front desk was very kind and helpful. She comped the hot breakfast due to our room not being ready on time.

Pillows and bedding are important, and necessary for a good night\'s sleep. Despite Hilton\'s promise of a "pillow menu" and attention to this, we sadly experienced that this was not the case at this Hilton Garden Inn. The pillows in our room were so worn they were flat, lumpy and the pile no longer staying together. They offered no head support, just a miserable experience for our first night. After asking a staff member if they had a pillow menu, he had no idea what we were talking about and brought us another flat, over worn and lumpy pillow. Reaching for my cell phone the next morning, there were long hairs on the stand that were not any of ours. We actually went out and bought pillows for our second and final night\'s stay. The cover on the Hilton bed was not as pictured in the photos of the hotel. It was for a queen bed and not for a king, which resulted in a tug of war over the covers that just barely came over the side. Speaking of, for some reason our cancellation time frame was one week out, instead of the usual one or two days before, eliminating the option to find some of the better options in the area. Our take away is that not all Hilton\'s are the same. On a positive note, the Hotel is in a great location for the Brentwood, Cool Springs, and Franklin area of greater Nashville. We will not be staying at a Hilton again.

My stay at this hotel was fabulous. Amber was the manager on site and was able to untangle my double booking error without me paying a penalty. Initially, I had gone to the wrong Hilton hotel and Amy and Donna were trying their hardest to find my reservation. Finally, I checked my email and learned I was at the wrong hotel. All three ladies, Amber from the Hilton Garden Inn and Donna and Amy from the Hilton on Corporate Causeway, went beyond to solve my mix-up. Thank you, ladies for your hospitality!
