John, Wyomissing

The hotel and staff were outstanding. Expedia dropped the ball. Expedia didn't pay for my hotel after making my reservation through the website. I had to stand at the Hilton check-in counter for 20 minutes while Expedia figured out how they screwed up and how to fix it. Miserable experience. I doubt I'll be using Expedia again. I felt like a hobo begging for money to pay for my hotel. Never again!
