I did experience this with some Hilton properties in 2020/2021, but have not experienced this with any Hilton properties in 2022. The maddening part is that hotels in the areas I've been (primarily Florida) are charging 3x-5x more than their pre-pandemic rates. Inflation's bad, but it's not THAT bad.
