This place is in pretty rough shape. The room was dirty. Hair and dust in the tub, the walls have splattered brown stuff on it, the floors looked like the carpet hasn’t been cleaned in decades. It’s priced like a high end hotel, but worse than a motel. I would recommend never going here. Also, staff is not friendly. Anytime you ask someone something they act like you’re bothering them. I stood at the counter for about 2-3 minutes in front of 2 ladies chatting and neither greeted me or offered help until I interrupted their conversation.

Areas if Improvement.

Check out is at 11am. As a result, check out at the front parking exit was chaotic and unorganized with cars backed up and unable to leave due to the car jam. Perhaps security can provide relief with the car jam. Also, the parking stacks elevator was minimally functional. I was forced to take the stairs. There were very few handicap parking located near the hotel entrance. Finally, they were out of cookies.

Not super clean but also not the worst hotel I've stayed at. Outdoor pool was always too cold for any of us to swim in. Breakfast definitely not included and only 1-2 restaurants nearby. Was an OK stay but probably won't stay again

This property needs a huge makeover. The rooms were horrible! the duvet insert was dingy and didn't look very clean. The floors were torn and had different size dark spots on them. There were tears in the chairs, and wallpaper. It was just a hot mess. I did not feel at home, and it was hard to get comfortable. Unfortunately

I was disappointed with my first stay at Doubletree due to the front desk clerk's inadequate service, and I won't be returning. Considering the cost, I expect quality customer service. Unfortunately, she didn't provide clear directions to my room, saying only 'go up there!'
