We've stayed at various Hilton properties prior to our stay in Girona, and I can honestly say that we were underwhelmed! While checking in, you notice that the reception desk is worn, dirty and untidy. The young man that checked us in wasn't very helpful; he didn't advise us the times for breakfast, or indicate to us where breakfast was served. In my mind, this is something you automatically tell EVERY guest on arrival.
When we got to the room, we found it to be very tired; the furniture was very worn and chipped, cigarette burns on the bedside table, the mirror on the sliding wardrobe door had been broken at the bottom, the toilet seat loose and moving about, and worst of all, the laminate flooring was splitting, cracking and moved to the extent that in several places, you could fit your finger into the gap between the end of the sections of flooring.
The view from the room wasn't appealing either - looking directly onto the balconies of residential apartmentments very close by. You were aware that if you could see them so clearly, that they could also see you too - especially the man who had a whole office set up no more than 50ft away from us! I doubt the view from the front of the hotel would have been better, as right opposite the entrance was the rear of a supermarket and the entrance to their car park!
Apart from a nearby music venue, there is nothing of interest nearby, and we would have been better served in a hotel closer to the city centre restaurants and bars.
