Hilton Clearwater Beach Resort & Spa
Check in delayed, understaffed. Couldn't tell us how long a wait would be. Pool did not have enough chairs. You had to wake up at 8 am to claim a chair-so stupid. Spa was overpriced. Paid 200 for wife and daughter to get nails done that lasted less than 24 hours. Food was ok. Stayed on street side ...
