The staff in the lobby were excellent, beautiful lobby great food in the restaurant and the staff really pays attention to its guest. My only issue with this Doubletree is whoever owns. It may be independent from the Hilton brand because they obviously don’t care about their employees. the lobby is like a refrigerator. You can’t even enjoy the beautiful lobby because it’s so cold and I was there two weeks and I think maybe only one day it might’ve been worn. The front desk have to actually have coats on and a space heater in the front the restaurant you cannot eat in there unless you’re wrapped up this is nothing to do with the excellent customer service of the whole hotel stamp it has to do with hotel ownership and taking it into consideration, your employees are still providing excellent customer service and a horrible working conditions.

This property was under renovation. It was unsafe, I couldn't find ice and the list goes on and on. They should have posted something on the website. The staff was helpful so this is NO reflection on them. They should give anyone staying there a discount due to the mess. Just being honest.

Terrible experience here. Broken cabinet that housed the refrigerator so refrigerator door would not open. After 2.5 hours maintenance finally came. Asked for a microwave and needed to follow up with front desk 4 times. Housekeeping delivered it to the wrong room. Woke up this morning to no water as a pipe burst. Water came back on 30 min before check out

The hotel room was clean and furnished with everything that I needed. Very comfortable bed. They are under renovations at the moment, but it is still a very decent place to stay. My biggest comlaint was the staff at the front desk. Not very friendly, and one staff person actually used profanity to another employee across the room. For this reason I gave them a lower rating than I probably would have.
