Dont let the Doubletree name fool you. Stay away until a major renovation is done.
Pros:

The staff was was great - Very friendly and helpful. They are hamstrung by an ageing hotel that needs a major renovation

Cons:

The room was very small and dated. Furniture was stained. Cabinet doors were broken. The bathroom was so small it was difficult to use. We booked a junior suite and this was anything but that.

Really bad
Pros:

Very bad rooms. So dated and unclean. I am shocked Hilton lets this place operate under its name. By far the worst I’ve seen. Dirty carpets, dirty bathroom, OMG It’s really bad.

Will not stay there again
Pros:

The location and the pillows

Cons:

No fridge, paying for parking $22.00 a fay,
Lukewarm water, bathtub had a-lot of plastered plaster mud and a large amount of caulk in corner, the shower door does not move so it was very difficult to give my grandchild a bath and reach the handles due to the door being stationary.,,, and the the hotel only had eight luggage carts which meant you had to haul your luggage manually.
