The Hilton's former owners had money problems during the worst of the pandemic. Though the hotel stayed open through the pandemic, court filings showed the former property owners missed their first mortgage payment on an $180,000,000 loan in April of 2020.
The auction was originally scheduled for mid-January, but was delayed.
