Old, outdated and tired hotel

2.0 of 5 bubblesReviewed 9 Apr 2024via mobile
The entire hotel, aside from the lobby, are in need of a major renovation. The elevators, hallways and rooms are not only outdated but damaged. Nigh-table and dresser were chipped and missing pieces of wood. Same for the bathroom mirror. The bathroom was very outdated and the floor felt slanted. There was a crack in the wall. Door didn’t close right. The entire room was a huge disappointment. The only positives was the bed was actually comfortable and looked on the newer side and the staff was friendly and helpful. I would probably never stay here again. Despite the convenience to the highway.

When we checked in, we were excited for the indoor pool and hot tub, only to find out it's not working but offer no incentive or discounts, so you pay for a pool u can't use. All the toiletries in the room were empty. And if u want to warm food, u have to pay $15 a night for a microwave. The desk lamp light is broken and dangling down. They don't service the rooms daily and u have to ask for extra towels. I would suggest another "hotel" for the price they charge.

A disgusting dirty noisy hotel, this is not the hilton, this is its worst representation, there is a sign in the hotel that smoking is prohibited, but marijuana is quietly smoked on the territory of the hotel, They no longer represent a transfer to Manhattan, never come back

This was the most average Doubletree I have stayed at in the past year. There was nothing blatantly wrong with it, but I don't think I would stay here again for the following reasons:

1. My room, although not dirty, didn't seem "sparkling clean" either. I hate when I can smell people's heads through the pillowcase on the pillows, so gross. I used the bath towels to cover my pillows.
2. The AC/heat system is very dated. Either the fan blows hard or not much. As previous reviewers stated, my room was hot but it did eventually cool down. No chance on opening a window due to the high volume of traffic.
3. Location. the hotel is not far from Manhattan but the mental effort you must exert to drive there is a lot. The hotel sits between multiple highways and it was a pain to drive to and from this hotel because of the high volume of traffic and multiple ramps, turns, etc. you have to take to get to the bridge. There is nothing within walking distance of this hotel either. My run to Starbucks on the way to a work event was very stressful due to the traffic and twists and turns required.
4. Bar/restaurant: the food was good but the beer selection at the bar is extremely limited. Stella was sour and they were out of other beers. Not many too choose from either.

Postive:
1. They offer a shuttle into the city which would be a plus for any not wanting to pay higher hotel prices.
2. Cookies are warm and delicious as always.

Overall, it's okay to stay if you must stay here but I think I would look for a more convenient place.

We called prior to booking this stay and asked about and early check in as my family and I was traveling from a different state.Our flight arrived after 7 in the morning and we got to the hotel around 8:30 am . When we approached the front desk and skinny Asian looking guy was sitting in the back office and it too him about 5 mins to address us . After finally coming to see what we wanted he told him that we were here to check in , he explain that there was no room available, we explain to him that we had called and even made a notation on the reservation to check in early so how soon can we be checked in after Check out … we said not until 2 pm , check out was at 11 . I said I am willing to pay for an early check in so can I get a room any sooner as we were tired and traveling to attend an even early the next morning .She said no .. but also went on to telling me that anytime before 4 I still have to pay $60 for early check in fee.After sitting in the lobby for almost 4 hours a group of guys walked in at around 12 pm and asked for early check in and without hesitation they were told yes and allowed to be checked in while we were still waiting , i then approached the desk n asked again can I be check in and another agent who was working was kind enough to assist us . I paid the early check in fee and was given a room . Was not the cleanest but the housekeeper who was superb was kind enough to change the sheets on the bed .On the third day of our stay we went to the dining area to get a plate to warm leftovers in the microwave and we stopped in the hallway by the same Asian looking guy and asked what room we were, without even asking if we were having breakfast we were told that it was $25 per person , we told him that we just wanted two plates to use in the microwave and he wasn’t willing to loan us a plate … instead he went to the kitchen and got us to go foil boxes and we told him that we cannot use those in a microwave, he still hesitated to give us plates asking if we could just use one … in which we replied that it was 4 of us so two would be preferred and we will return it as soon as we were finish .. in which we did .Base on the customer service experience I would not encourage anyone to stay at this property especially if you are black .The housekeeper was the kindest person to us throughout our stay … she is superb, 10th floor housekeeper

This is a gross hotel. Out of date and smelly. When we checked in one of the pillows on our bed still had someone else’s makeup on it. Gum matted into the carpet by the desk. The only reason we booked this hotel was for the shuttle in Manhattan but WRONG. they don’t offer it anymore. They have info for a private shuttle co you can use but it only goes at 9am returning at 8p and is 30 pp. do yourselves a favor and book elsewhere.
