First impression coming into lobby was good, but coming into entrance nearer our room was not. The entrance door looked dirty and antiquated. The hallway ceiling tiles looked dirty and waterstained and not hanging straight. There was a musy smell in the room. The air vent for heat/AC was dirty and wall around it stained.

The room was large and (kind of) updated, The linens and bed were clean and comfortable. The shower leaked all over the floor. For a Hilton property, I guess I was disappointed for what it cost.

Room was clean and the front desk girl was super friendly and helpful. The hotel is a little outdated but the ac worked great. Breakfast was just ok and should be included (extra charge) as it was just continental and nothing special. The kids enjoyed the indoor pool area.

This is an acquisition motel. It does not meet the Hilton hotel brand standard. It needs a complete paint job on the outside of the building. The room was remodeled but dark. It might be a good place to stay with a bunch of kids or students. They really couldn't damage anything based on the current condition. The back of the hotel and entrance was neglected.

Upon arrival they were great, and even texted immediately asking if I needed anything, and to let them know if anything comes up. The fire alarm went off in the middle of the night with no follow up or explanation of what happened. When I texted asking what happened, wouldn't you know it...no reply back (still, a week later). The pool didn't work and the rooms were musty smelling. They even had window fans in the hallway for people to use (must be a common issue). Overall would not stay here again.

We stayed purely for the pool, as we were in town for a baseball tournament. After arrival we found out the pool was closed, which was disappointing. But made the most of it and the kids still had fun. The hotel was very short staffed and it seems very chaotic. The fire alarm went off in the middle of the night and we had to evacuate. We were all told we could go back in, and now an article has come out that two guests have been hospitalized for carbon monoxide poisoning. Something is not right and I would not recommend staying here.

Our room smelled so bad of mildew/mold and we were offered a fan but never received one. The stocking of shampoo and conditioner was not attended to-I am not sure when our room was prepared but several things were missing. We spent two nights and our towels were replaced but beds weren’t made and again nothing replaced in the showers that was out. Staff was pleasant and we understand it’s not their fault. Swimming pool was down the whole time we were there. They do charge $4 for the coffee in the lobby-ridiculous as it was just a kuerig machine.

Only stay at this property as a last resort. One or two staff members attempted to be helpful and most were friendly, but they are set up to fail given the horrible conditions of the rooms.

Hot, hunid. AC that can't drop the temp below 74. Shirts come out of the closet damp. 3 nights stayed and never received housekeeping, other than the day I specifically asked the desk clerk to have them come replace the towels on the floor used to mop up the water due to the shower door gaps.

Just terrible. Tried it again, hoping the Doubletree brand would insist on improvements, but clearly that is not in their plans.

I made a reservation here because it was one of the few in this part of town to include breakfast…WARNING! I was pressed for time before the last round of a golf tournament so all I needed was some eggs and sausage or bacon. You know, the standard almost every hotel provides. There were a few other options but it was nothing special… just a hotel breakfast.
So I’m hurrying to get to the course and up comes a young lady with a charge slip for $13.87. I told her I wouldn’t sign it because my res was “including breakfast”. She picked up the charge and walked away. I thought nothing more of it until I received an email later in the day with the charges posted to my credit card.
The room wasn’t cheap, the hotel was fairly quiet and I have no problem with the accommodations. But I’ll never stay here again. I feel like the victim of a “bait and switch”.

I arrived later in the night for check in due to a work issue. My reservation was for Friday thru Sunday. Upon arrival I checked in only to find they gave my king room away to someone else because I booked through a 3rd party and had not checked in earlier - and yet they were already paid from Expedia. They scurried around and literally had to call management to figure out what happened and what to do. Finally they gave me one of their very last rooms with 2 queens and apologized for the inconvenience. Sunday morning I called for a late checkout due to a later morning event - and was told since they were super busy and had too many late checkouts already they could only do 1:00 and my whole problem with my reservation was it was through 3rd party and check in and late checkouts were not guaranteed. WHAT??? Craziest stay ever. Thankful I had a room but the whole stay was a real disappointment.

Bed was comfortable. Place was clean. The kids liked the atrium and being able to play bags and hang out. The water pressure in our room was terrible. Barely a trickle. Room was very dark. Noise from atrium late at night was very disruptive. People talking very loudly. Finding the elevator and our room was challenging! We saw several people who got lost. Elevators need to be clearly marked as they were through a fire door. Overall stay was ok, but would ask for a room that does not overlook atrium due to the noise.

Ask about the breakfast before eating. It wasn't clear whether it was \"free\" or not. We were told it wasn't for us but then were not billed. Good outcome but very confusing.
Hotel layout is also confusing. Hard to find elevators.
Pool is nice but be prepared for the smell of chlorine in the lobby!

Very clean hotel, with a nice room overhaul. My only complaint about the room was, that the toilet was too low to the floor, the toilet height was made for a child or very short person. The food was excellent, if you don’t mind the one hour wait to get your order delivered. I was told the buffet close, and was only used if the hotel was busy, otherwise it’s individual ordering.

This hotel, on the day I visited had no hot water . It seems this was hotel wide.

When I asked the front desk for some sort of compensation, they denied my request and offered me points - which I NEVER received.

On my way out, I asked for a receipt. Never was emailed to me. I called back, asked for it again. Same deal ( yes I know about spam, junk email folders and the like). No receipt ( ever ) and the persons helping me were way less than friendly and offered no alternatives, they made it my problem.

Both these rather small but significant issues - I’ll never stay here or at another DoubleTree again.

Almost heaven, central Kansas

Checkin was very easy. Staff were nice. It had the usual small convenience store near the front desk.
Rooms were comfortable and beds very soft and comfy.
This hotel has been rehabbed in the recent past, and it is still in very good shape. New carpet, furniture, beds etc. Bathroom was nice.

It was the little things that got it the lower rating. Drains were slow. The halls had not had as much attention as the rooms and lobby. Our room was poorly lit. They need a real bartender in the bar, things like that.
It was also noisy our second night. Not the hotels fault, but did leave an impression.

Overall, if you need a place in Manhattan to stay near campus and get a good rate to you could do a lot worse. Not sure I will stay her again.
