The pool,splash area and the hot tub were all really good. We spent hours there on some days. We hadnt breakfast inckuded in the booking but decided to avail of it on our first morning and pay for it. It ended up costing $130 including tip for 2 adults and 2 children. Extremely expensive. That was the last morning we had breakfast at the hotel restaurant.

Elevator maintenance - hotel must ensure all elevator are operating during busy hours. Just 1 elevator was working to attend 18 floors and waiting almost 30 minutes to get in with luggage. Guests were upset and just created a bad environment.

Friendly service and great attitudes here! I especially want to recognize the maintenance team as Guillermo was quick to solve my issue of needing to cover up the nighlight near the door with some tape as I am very light sensitive.

The best thing this hotel has going for it is location. You can walk to Universal in about 10 minutes! Overall it is a little worn. The beds are comfortable and the room was clean, but as many older hotels, the carpet is worn out & pretty disgusting. That really bothers me. The check in staff was super nice & everyone got a free cookie! Decent and a good price. If the carpets were newer & cleaner I'd give it 5 stars.

This Double Tree is definitely outdated for the price you pay. It’s nothing like the photos. They need an upgrade! Do not stay here expecting it to be a luxurious Double Tree. Elevators were broke down and other maintenance issues.

No housekeeping during our 2-night stay. One of elevators was not working while we were in it. AC fan too noisy - had to turn it off in order to stop the noise. All USB outlets were not working. Room was dated - totally overpriced. Not recommend to others.
