Do I understand after booking rooms here that it is "paid" parking? From what I read, one person who stayed there said there was free parking. Which is it?

The parking is not free. The cost for parking is typically included in the amount you pay per night for your room. Once you check in, your room key will open the parking gate to let you in and out of the parking lot.

The parking is not free but you can pay a flat rate of $22.00 for the day.

I didn't pay for parking when I was there 2 weeks ago.

There is a cost for Parking, around $20.00.

$20 from memory

I've stayed there twice, never paid for parking. Valet is a charge.

Parking was not free, it was an additional $20 .

They charge extra for parking. I think it was $20 a night or $26 for valet. Unless you're Hilton honors, then it may be different.

Free. You will need your room key card to get in and out of the parking lot.

You have to be an overnight guest to get free parking
