Tru By Hilton St. Louis Downtown

Tru By Hilton St. Louis Downtown

10/10 Excellent
"My stay overall was fantastic. Staff was attentive particularly the maintenance supervisor. An issue I had to deal with was there was no USB Type C ports in the ENTIRE hotel that worked. In fact the lamp on my room nightstand had a dual Port built into it with the old Type A and the new oval Type C style. Problem was the type C Port was broken. So I thought easy enough I'll go to the front desk or for that matter anywhere in the hotel where portals were set up but not a single one had a type C. There were literally dozens of electrical plug receptacles with type A ports but NONE type C. Not in the technology computer area, not in the workout room, not in any of the lounge areas, not ANYWHERE. I had to wait until the next morning to have my truck brought out of valet to charge my phone. I literally sat in my truck an hour and a half charging my phone. Ironically as I did the automatic lights were still on and I drained my battery until it was dead and the truck didn't start. The maintenance person got a hold of the security guard who had jumper cables and was gracious enough to jump my truck. I then let the truck idle for another 20 minutes charging up my truck battery and finishing my cell phone charge. From then on it was uneventful but I could no longer charge my phone. I was told by the front desk Hilton doesn't allow your hotels to have converter adapters. I say update your ports, all new cell phones are type C and everyone lives with their phone attached to hip!!"
