Hilton Garden Inn Cleveland Downtown

10/10 Excellent

"We were in town to visit for a few days. Progressive field is right there and the hotel was so close to everything with walking distance and if you wanted to go explore the other site seeing things within downtown Cleveland it was only a couple minutes away. Great location!"
