Men standing around check in desk did not offer bag cart until we specifically asked. Front desk was very friendly. Appreciated elevated room and view. Bathroom had hair in shower and floor, that is very disgusting. Pillows very comfortable.

    “It’s always a pleasure to stay at this location. We were warmly greeted by Gwen & Selinya at check-in and in no time we had our room key, warm chocolate chip cookie and were on our way. Thank you for a wonderful stay.”

  • The hotel was good. I should have been warned that the parking structure across the street was a municipal money grab.

    4/10

    RevFoodie · Friends getaway · 2026-06-27

    “Your staff does a disservice to your guests by not warning them that they will be ticketed for backing into parking stalls in the structure across the street. There are no signs posted anywhere indicating this… visitors are just expected to know? My wife and I spent not a small amount of our hard earned pay visiting your hotel and your city. This left a sour taste after an otherwise pleasant stay.”

  • Night Manager Makes My Day

    10/10

    michaelmerino · Business · 2026-06-23

    “Joe Dennis, the night manager at this Doubletree property, is amazing. My room was not stocked with hand soap for some reason. I stopped by the front desk, and he said he'd take care of it for me. After realizing that there was none in the supply room, he offered to run down the street and pick up what I needed at the CVS. I said I could get it myself. Determined to make it right, he asked what would I like. I awkwardly said, "Nothing fancy, just a bar of Dove for sensitive skin." Ten minutes later he delivered it to my room with two drink vouchers, apologizing for the inconvenience. Wow. What customer service. Thanks, Joe. You are top notch!”

  • Thank you John Carhoff!
