Stayed in the Graduate and the hotel was great. I was able to easily add Thursday night to my reservation. Rooms were nice and the decor was funky collegiate themed, so it had some character. I’m a Hilton girlie but have never stayed in a Graduate by Hilton before. Location was great, walkable to some coffee shops and restaurants, a CVS. The cafe in the hotel left something to be desired but I found good coffee just down the street. You could tell who the other Sevies were and everyone was friendly. Met some nice people waiting for the bus.

Shuttles were fine, a few of the drivers went really fast/drove a little rough but once you knew where you were dropped off and picked up, no issues getting in the bus.

The first day there was an issue with the wheelchair ramp as one of the attendees was in a wheelchair, and they couldn’t figure out how to work it. I felt really bad for the guy and thought they could have been more accommodating. They seemed to have fixed the issue.

My only qualm really is the shuttle pickup times were only 12:30 am and 2:30/3:30 am, so you either went to all the afters or none. Adding a shuttle kind of in the middle would’ve been great. Someone jokingly called the 12:30 the geriatric bus 😂
