Is there an indoor pool?
How much is food, to order from room service? I think I know the answer, but thought I'd ask.
Can you only order food at certain times of the day?
Do you tip the folks that bring it up to you? I ask, because I tipped the cleaning lady last time, before finding out that it is not common to do so.

Always tip for accommodations you request, like room service. Housekeeping is included with the hotel, so there is no need to tip them, although it is a kind gesture. I was there for the first Fanfest in January 2004, and didn't notice anything about an indoor pool. But hey, they've got a bar. That's where I do my swimming  |

The Hilton is in a plaza with a couple of good restaurants. You have 2 of my favorite places within walking distance....Smoky Bones (BBQ and the best beer battered onion rings ever) and Max & Erma's (great burgers). Also a place called Boardwalk Billy's and several fast food places.

We ate at Wolfman's and some mexican place that was on that plaza when we were there in November. |

how about ordering pizza? What nearby places deliver, and do they bring them up to your room?

Shannon, we can always go to Wolfmans for some pizza man. ;D Ive noticed throughout my travels and staying in hotels and what not, that the food in hotels for say room service can be quite pricey. Im not telling you not to support the hotel or whatnot, but just be aware and expect to pay sometimes 2 times more for something than you normally would. |
