overall we had a pleasant stay with everything being in close proximity and beautiful location.
Pros:

I wish it had fresh baked bread, vegetables like tomatoes and onions, and blueberries and mango
and automated coffee machine that you can make any kind of coffee.

Cons:

I wish the bathrooms were little bit bigger because it got tight with 2 people trying to get ready especially when you don't have enough space to put your toiletries

We enjoyed our stay especially the live music on the patio from 6pm-9pm
Pros:

The breakfast was good. however I have stayed in other hotels that a full breakfast was offered at no additional cost. Drury inn is one example

Cons:

Offer the same breakfast and include in the total cost if necessary.

4th of July getaway
Pros:

The Doubletree New Bern is an excellent hotel. It has clean and spacious rooms. The hotel staff is top notch and will go the extra mile to meet your needs. The marina just outside the hotel gives you plenty to watch during your stay. The hotel is situated within walking distance of many downtown restaurants and entertainment. This was my second stay at this hotel and I would definitely stay here again.

FIVE STAR experience
Pros:

Everything about our stay at this Doubletree Hilton hotel in New Bern was exceptional.
The room was clean, the sheets were crisp and soft, and the pillows were amazing.
We ended up having both dinner and then breakfast the next day in the hotel restaurant and it was very good.
Highly recommend!
