The building is poorly maintained. The elevator from the parking to the lobby is in need of maintenance. The area outside the hotel appears unsafe at night.There is no microwave in our room. The shower only had a too-hot setting. The handle shower is also falling apart. The toilet paper holder was barely hanging.

I thought double tree’s association with Hilton meant facilities would be clean and properly maintained. I’m not expecting chocolates on my pillow, but thought the elevators would be in working condition, and you know, room’s clean. My mistake, and lesson learned! Sheraton has always been a good experience, I should have just booked there (will do in the future!)

A gilded dump

Property has seen better days. It’s obvious it once may have been glorious, but beyond the lobby, there is heavy wear and tear. Water stains, scratches, beat up furniture, non-working plumbing, ice machines not working. I was placed in 3 different rooms - and all had plumbing issues ranging from toilet not flushing, toilet flowing like a waterfall, stopped-up sink drains, very hot water coming out of both hot and cold sides. Even the upgraded "executive" room was a joke. No different from other rooms except there was a robe in the closet and the toilet flushed properly. Fridge but no microwave. Someone else's hair pins on floor. Bed was comfy and clean, though. And front desk service was among the best customer service at a hotel I ever have received. Clerk did her best to make it right, but the major issues were behind her control. Not even a maintenance worker on-site and not her fault the rooms and common areas need an overhaul.
