Pricing for parking seemed to be whatever the check-in person wanted to offer that day. I was with a group...all of us booked through Travelocity. I was charged $38/night for parking, another family was charged $16/night and yet another family was charged $10/night. When asked, they just told us it was what it was. Then, I went to park in the ramp in the afternoon of my stay and it was full...they told me I had to go to a ramp about a block and a half away and pay again.

Very disappointing. First I did not realize I booked through a third party so from the start I was frustrated because my Hilton Honors did not count. I actually changed from staying at the Hyatt because I was able to stay in an executive king suite for a similar price at the Hyatt. I have never not had 2 bottles of water in my room. There was nothing. I mean as an honors member I expect those things. I don’t think it should matter that I could not get points. I paid for an executive king suite. There were zero perks with that and I regret it. Staying at the Hyatt I would have had more perks. Also, and to me the biggest issue, was that there are 2 very nice televisions in my suite and not one of them had access to something as simple at Netflix. We had like 40 total channels and no guide to see what was o. Or anything. So disappointing. Some activities we had planned were canceled due to the snow so it would have been nice to enjoy a movie or something. Either way, at the price we pay and the times we live in I would never have thought I would have needed an HDMi cable to enjoy something that simplistic. Also the food at the Monarch Lounge was horrible. Steak bites wrapped in bacon were dried out and tasteless. All around disappointing stay. Sorry Hilton you can do better.
