Overall the stay was good in Carte Hotel. There were some last minute deductions (fees) added when we did check out. Would have been better if we were intimated prior to booking.

Be careful booking here!
We checked and were given a handicapped accessible room. The bed was awful, as it was just a terrible mattress on a metal frame. You could actually see the metal frame. This is not what the pictures indicate. We contacted the front desk and they said all beds were like the one we got. This was a lie. Afterwards we had a terrible night sleep and all of our bodies were aching the rest of the trip. I went down to the front desk first thing in the morning and they told me it was an accessible room hence the bed type. (I feel bad that Hilton would do that to someone with special needs) Hilton also told me it was their policy to provide these types of rooms to anyone who books through hotel.com or third party. I have never heard this policy before. After several complaints they switched us to an another room . . And the bed was much better, unfortunately the damage was done. We had a terrible stay at this hotel due to body aches the rest of the weekend. My back still hurts two days later.
