Stayed 2 nights. LIKES: Comfortable bed Quiet Reasonable food in ”restaurant” DISLIKES: Carpet on 5th floor (see photos) in desperate need of cleaning Painfully slow elevators Poor room lighting Erratic hot water Towels akin to 150 grit sandpaper SUMMARY: This was a bit of a disappointment, considering the room rate. No excuses for the carpeting, but it also goes along with some outdated furnishings in the rooms that have seen better days. Two days later, I stayed on the 45th floor of another hotel in Niagara and it took the same time to get to that floor as it did to get to the 5th floor in this Marriott. So while there were a few things to like here, there's definitely some work to be done.
Hotel service is attentive. There are breakfast and afternoon tea, although there are not many varieties, it is not bad to eat around the hotel. There is a canteen downstairs, you can choose more. The room is large, with kitchen utensils, and you can buy it yourself.
I stay at Marriott properties almost exclusively. Generally the service is very good, rooms are clean and it’s a decent value. None of the above describes our experience at Springhill Suites. We had a five night stay. Virtually from check in to check out there were issues. At check in, we weren’t even welcomed as Gold Elite members. The check in person had a script that she stuck to so if this were the first time or the 300th time, she didn’t veer from the script. I asked her if we could have bottles of water (they are supposed to ask if you want 250 points or water). She advised that for our five night stay, we would have housekeeping only on Thursday and Saturday. (Our check in was on a Tuesday). Upon entering the room it was moderately clean but the carpeting is stained, wallpaper in the bathroom is peeling and the toilet “whooshes” every few minutes (probably needs a new flapper or something like that). The closet has shelves (no dresser which is a bit of an issue when you are staying for 5 nights) but the shelves were filthy, dusty and sticky as if someone spilled something but no one cleaned it up. They have a notice in the bathroom to conserve water and reuse towels. Nice thought but there’s nowhere to actually hang a slightly used towel. There’s one robe hook in the bathroom that could potentially be used for a towel but since the counter is small, and there were two of us, I used the hook to hang my cosmetic bag. So towels piled up on the floor. We made our own bed on day one since we knew there’s no housekeeping. No big deal. But on day two (Thursday) when we were scheduled to have housekeeping I asked if they could come before 10 am or after 11 am because my husband had an important call from 10-11 so I didn’t want him disturbed. So when did housekeeping knock - at 10 am of course. I was able to ask the housekeeper to come back but she obviously wasn’t advised by the front desk of our request. She did come back later in the day and did a modest cleaning. At least the towels were no longer on the floor. We made our bed on Friday. Again, no big deal. On Saturday we were scheduled for housekeeping. We left the hotel at 8 am and didn’t return until 2 pm. I was shocked to see that the room was still not cleaned. I went to the front desk, told them I was going to their gym and then planned to shower so could housekeeping come at 4:30, when we would be leaving again. She said no problem. So just as I was about to shower there was a knock at the door. It was at 3:30. When I asked them to come back at 4:30, not only was I told no (she stated that they leave at 4:30) but she had no intention of doing anything other than give clean towels and pull the covers up -no intention of providing clean sheets. At this point we had been at the hotel for four nights. When we went to the front desk to complain, they completely disregarded our concerns, didn’t even know that we had already been there for 4 nights at that point, and basically weren
Stayed here after attending a concert at the CURE Insurance Arena in Trenton, NJ which is less than 10 minutes from there. The room was clean with plenty of linens. The bed and pillows were so damn comfortable that I didn't even want to get up in the morning. I did not get a chance to see their complimentary breakfast because I was in a rush to leave, but I will definitely try it next time I come back.

I am a Hilton Honors member, so I expect a certain level of treatment when I travel for business and stay at Hilton. However, that was not the case at this hotel. The front desk is very rude and cold. They act like it's a bother to check you in or out. They refused to provide me with a receipt so I could expense my trip with my employer. When I called to speak with a manager (Melissa) after my trip, she hung up on me. Very poor customer service. As a result, I filed a formal complaint with their corporate office. Also, though the room was clean, there were ants on the desk and TV, and all over the counters in the breakfast area. They did not wipe anything down in the breakfast area. Generally, if there is a bug problem, then that means there is a deeper maintenance issue. I do not recommend staying at this location. Hilton is supposed to be better than this. I was not pleased and will never stay at this location again.
Our room was number 324 facing the parking lot. The lobby is outdated, the room smells bad, and the air-conditioning keeps blowing cold air on the person that is seating next to the table to work, Old air-conditioning, bugs in the bathroom.

Dog friendly but unfriendly otherwise. I didn’t even get what I paid for (business king). They stuck me in a basic room w a full size bed at best and I didn’t even bother saying anything. I could tell all the rooms were going to be the same piss poor quality. Front desk unmanned constantly and extremely rude. I’m being nice bc I don’t believe in outing specific employees but one woman needs training in how to speak to customers. In my 20+ years of staying in hotels, no matter the price point, I’ve never been spoken to so disrespectfully for no reason. Room- disgusting. Lights not working, telephone not working, visible bed stains, all sorts of noises, I think you get the picture. No fridge, microwave or coffee maker. Antiquated thermostat. Couldn’t get much sleep due to noise, generally feeling unsafe for myself and my vehicle. Kicker- police activity outside in the AM because of some incident I didn’t care to witness after my comedically bad stay. As the old adage goes, you get what you pay for.
