Good enough for a brief stay but I would not stay here longer than one night. A bit outdated but not terrible. For what we paid I’d expect to have complimentary breakfast but we had to pay for a basic continental breakfast. No issues with front staff but they could have been more informative about the breakfast situation. We didn’t know we had to pay until we were harassed by one of the servers. Overall it was fine for a quick overnight rest.

Room was clean, bed was comfortable. Bathroom was clean. The toilet was very small and low. The room was a bit worn in that there were chips in the furniture like the bathroom sink area, desk, etc. the hallways and elevator looked old and bit dirty looking. It wasnt really dirty but it just looked like everything was heavily used and worn. It is a decent place to stay I would stay here again. The parking situation i wasnt really expecting, you have to pay $4 for up to 3 hours or less. $11 for >3 hours- 24 hours. So going in and out a lot could add up. The garage is safe and there is ample space.

My recent stay at the DoubleTree hotel was disappointing. The room was outdated and didn't match the description. Cleanliness was a major issue - the comforter was dirty, and after multiple requests, they offered a mattress topper as a solution. The air conditioning was also noisy and couldn't be adjusted. While the hotel's signature cookie smell was great, the overall experience fell short. The bar service was unfriendly, and the hotel's age showed. With some upgrades and attention to detail, this hotel could be great. Unfortunately, I might consider another option next time I visit.

Be prepared to pay 11 dollars to park in the only parking garage every time you leave your room. Be prepared to pay an extra 50.00 per night for incidentals.
