Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
I have stayed at this hotel several times and the stays were absolutely amazing. Room nicely decorated and clean friendly staff. This time however the first room I was assigned to had dirty walls and none of the lights worked properly on the lamp stand or the bathroom. When I reported this to the front desk while asking for a room transfer the first thing he asked was if it was because of the lights not working which tells me the hotel is aware of these issues. The second room was only slightly better. Table moved from the wall like it was not meant to be there. Temperature adjustments didn’t work either. It was not the room I chose off line. Very, very bad experience this time. I don’t think I’ll stay at that doubletree again. Just terrible.
