Hilton Garden Inn Albuquerque Uptown

Breakfasts were much better than expected - a little pricey. The hotel was very close to the park and ride pick up area for the Balloon Fiesta. The food in the dinning area was good.

The room did not have a safe! We had to carry our valuables (paperwork and camera gear) at all times. The cable TV was intermittent at times with speech and visuals locking up and needing to be reset.

Very clean

we purchased dinner to take to our room which was very good but expensive. I ordered and paid for guacamole but it was not included with the meal. Hilton has the best pillows every time I stay at one. I have tried to find out how to purchase some but have been unsuccessful.

bed was comfortable.

The receptionist couldn't be bothered to be at the front desk. Sat across several rooms, within visual site of the front desk and so would drag themself to the desk when someone arrived. Spoke/muttered so softly that I could not hear them/understand them. Repeatedly had to ask for the question to be repeated. Instead of repeating the question, they would say a single word as if this explained the entire sentence. They even went into a charades mode rather than say their question. I found their approach and attitude horrible. I will not be staying there again.
