We've stayed at many Hilton Garden Inn locations over the years, and it's usually our go-to hotel when we travel. The rooms are reasonably priced, the locations are convenient, and the staff is consistently friendly and welcoming. This Evanston location was especially enjoyable. The Evanston Farmers Market was right behind the hotel, and there were plenty of great restaurants within easy walking distance. The neighborhood felt safe, lively, and pleasant to explore. Overall, this was another great stay at Hilton Garden Inn. If you're looking for a comfortable, well-located hotel at a reasonable price, this is an excellent choice.

staff was helpful. Everyone was friendly. The property is well maintained. There was a music festival as well as a big storm going on while we were there. I think that is why our bathroom sink would not drain. Our Uber driver explained that there are 5-10 concert goers packing in one room and it messes with the draining in the hotels/businesses.
