Several issues with this hotel and I ll NEVER stay...

Several issues with this hotel and I ll NEVER stay at another Hilton again.
1. This hotel is expensive and charges $40+ a day for fees PLUS $40+ a day for the use of the valet. It is mandatory to use the valet yet you wait 30-45 min for your car everytime you want to go somewhere. Even if you call downstairs ahead of time and ask for your car to be brought up then head down in 20 min your car is NEVER there. They look around for your keys and seem to always have them misplaced and then go get your car after waiting another 10 min for them to figure it all out.
2. We stayed here for a total of 8 days, on the first day of check in I mentioned to the front desk that there was hair, of all shades, lengths and styles spread around the ceiling and walls and bathtub in our bathroom. I again complained 3 more times over the 8 days and not one cleaning person, manager or anyone came to clean this up. There was also a brown goo, so disgusting, around the sink. I ended up cleaning it up myself. I can not understand how a hotel like the Hilton would even allow a room to be rented out in that condition especially for what they charge for them.
3. My coffee maker leaked coffee and did not work my entire stay. I tried every single day to make coffee and not once did the coffee maker make the coffee with out drawing it out the back of the machine. They also never refilled the condiments to the coffee in a way that you could actually make coffee. One day they d give you one coffee packet with two cups, one cream and one of each h sugars, the next day two coffee refills with no sugar. Seriously!?! So then I attempted to call down and ask for coffee to be brought up and charged To my room and they said we don t do that but if I found someone who was available it would be at least an hour! Worst customer service ever!
4.everytime I did call down for something we needed, like towels, a microwave that wasn t in our room, silverware, the response was always it will take an hour for that ! They never acted happy to do something for you and always seemed annoyed and put out as well as just too busy!
5. The hotel is under construction. And I mean serious construction. The first noise you hear in the morning is the loud machines at work, not the beach or friendly noises of California sea side. The offer ZERO activities for kids and have ZERO spaces for them like other hotels, for example, agame room, lounge area, separate pool with slides. That pool was closed for construction and nothing else was offered. Everytime you tried to go to the hot tub there would be 15+ teenagers and kids in it that you couldn t get in. The pool was too cold to get in. About 60*.
6. The best service I got on my 8 day stay was from the rental store across from the hotel where we rented some wetsuits from an older gentleman who owned the shop. He was so friendly, helpful and kind to us.
7. I have stayed exclusively at only Marriott hotels for a few years now and thought my vacation at a Hilton would be a wonderful experience for me and my three boys. Being a single mother it is hard to take off of work and plan a vacation for three children. To say I was disappointed with my stay and above that, my service we received here is an understatement. This is NOT a friendly hotel and they do not cater anything for children. They did offer a pool game once a day where the lifeguards threw some toys in the water for 5 min and the kids raised to get them and return them to the life guards. All of those kids who participated received a small treat. In 5 min that was done.
8. Next time I stay in Huntington Beach, we LOVED the area, I will be staying at a hotel who caters more to kids and actually has customer service and clean rooms.
