    I took a cold shower. The bathroom sink was way warmer! I also was woken up this morning by someone trying to get into my room at 9am!! I had planned on sleeping in but that wasn’t happening! if it wasn’t for my door latch they would have walked on in!!! 😳🙄

    it was very beautiful and close to everything!!!!!

    Not the usual experience one would expect from this property.

    The room cleaning service was the worst I have ever experienced - and we travel frequently. Pulling up the sheets on a bed does not mean a bed has been made nor does it mean a room has been serviced - no tea/coffee sachets were replaced, no coffee cups - no soap in bathroom etc - the cleaner must have entered the room, pulled up the sheets and left taking the generous tip with them...... very poor service indeed. When looking for an item I dropped I pulled the bedside cabinet slightly forward and I would suggest the cleaners actually cleaning behind these as there was a thick layer of dust showing that this was obviously never actually done nor behind the bed area which you could also see when the cabinet was pulled forward. The room and bed linen on arrival looked very clean but this was a surface clean - not the Hilton full standard one would expect. The room was high up in the hotel but street noise quite loud - overall this was a disappointing experience which is a shame as the location is excellent.

    The Bakery restaurant staff were lovely and very helpful. The check in staff were pleasant. The bed linen was clean and white. Location is excellent and good restaurants are close by.

    Pool and hot tub were closed- no one knew why, and nothing was mentioned on the website about that when I booked. I asked the desk to send someone up to the room to fix the ac while we were out all day- nothing was done. I had to ask again at 8:30pm after being out all day. Staff wouldn’t take early check-ins, but I was able to check in and get my key using the Hilton app an hour early- no one said I could do that while I was sitting around waiting for nothing.

    staff was polite

    the staff was entirely not helpful. we were charged over $100 more than what the original total was stated as. our curtains were broken in our room and we were up early every single day because the light was shining directly into our room. there was dust all over the back of the bed as if it had not been cleaned recently and there were crumbs near the nightstand before we even had food there. we were also missing the inside of our shower curtain and the bathroom basically flooded everytime we had to shower

    the property itself was just overall mediocre. everything was extremely outdated in our room. we were overcharged for the quality of our stay.

    Fresh blood stains on sheets but dusty, dirty room. Plus replacement sheets were wrong size and since it was evening when we checked in the “housekeeping staff was gone. We were told we had to strip stained sheets off and remake the bed OURSELVES!!! The manager should have had another staff member do this! The curtains were so old and crispy the had huge holes in them. So dusty in room you could write your name in the dust on lamp bases and TV base and some other furniture. Staff was not as hospitable as I expected. Run down hotel with rooms that need not only cleaning but updated into the 2020’s. This was not a cheap hotel either! Quite honestly We we’re disgusted and will never be back here or stay in any other Doubletree chain hotel. Yuck.

    Easy to get to.

    The front desk failed to tell us how to get I to parking garage and how to get to our room. The bathtub drain didn't work to hold water, the lights next to bed we never did find the switch for. They need to offer in room microwave we went to dinner and was going to reheat food but then realized we had no way to do so. The beds were only a double and we needed 2 so 2 bigger ppl cannot sleep comfortable on them. The room was quit small for the price, you are definitely paying for the location not luxury.

    The front desk staff was very friendly, the hotel lobby area was inviting. Comfortable beds

    Rooms could’ve be cleaner and updated.

    For the prices we paid for the stay the rooms should be much better. The hotel in general needs some repairs and a makeover. The ice machines were broken. And a lot of the rooms carpet was very old. Outside of the bar and workout room it was just average.
