Verified reviews of The Golden Hotel Ascend Hotel Collection

Below are the verified reviews from guests that we have booked in recently:
"Hilton Garden Inn with great porch."
Overall score3.0/ 5
Some of the staff was very pleasant and some were very rigid and so no versus accommodating the guest. A lot of the staff was brand new and in training, but no one was there training them. Bed linens and pillows were not good at all! One night when all restaurants were closed we ordered a pizza from across the street. We were told that we couldn't eat it in the lobby and had to go outside. A lot of rules for a very average hotel.
