I hope the Graduate remains true to its brand
Reagan the desk manager was wonderful when we arrived. 😊 The room itself was large. The frig had to be defrosted which I mentioned to front desk And the bathrooms are ridiculously small. They should change out the bathroom door to a barn door. Because the bathroom door opens into bathroom and takes up so much space. ☹️ Bed mattress was very comfortable. Hilton hotels have the worst firm mattresses (like sleeping on a plywood box of wood) which when I learned the Graduate was purchased by them I was concerned. There was adequate parking and trolleys for luggage. I ate dinner which was not put into a box so by the time I got it back to my room it was cold. ☹️ The hotel is confusing because ir is shaped like a horseshoe so maps at the elevator would help. Morning coffee was very good. And the staff very pleasant. And the carpets were delightful. Football and peaches. 😊

Nice Place
Nice hotel. Irritated to have to pay $10 for parking. We enjoyed our stay overall. No breakfast and coffee in room was instant and clearly pretty old-it was “clumpy”. The bed was SO comfy and it was quiet and clean.
