My wife and I stayed here for one week. The very first day wwe tried getting into the room the keys didn’t work. The keys were replaced then we found out it was the door that was getting stuck. The security said they would send an engineer in the morning to fix it. Entire week went by and no one showed up. We had to push the door open every time and bump it with our shoulder to be able to open it. The toilet wasn’t working either and was not flushing from the start. The water flow in the shower was horrible. Despite all that the worst part was the staff at the welcome desk (Laura and a black female manager). Extremely rude and very dismissive. The manager initially thought we were diamond members and began being helpful. Once she realized she had entered the wrong room number she went right back to being rude and dismissive as if my money wasn’t good enough. Nothing was fixed throughout the week and we had to change the door keys 3 times. It was probably the worst hotel stay we have experienced. Never again with Hilton or Double Tree. We truly expected more from Hilton, what a horrible disappointment. I would not recommend this hotel and we will not be returning to this or any Hilton property.

The location was great and the property was nice. There. Was very little shade at the pool which was the reason we couldn’t use it. There were only 4 umbrellas and they were all occupied which meant everyone else had to sit out in the blistering sun. They don’t provide individual toiletries, they have large bottles of shampoo, soap, and conditioner in the bathroom, which is great as long as they are filled. I reached out to the front desk two days in a row for more conditioner, but it was never refilled. I finally gave up and went out to purchase my own. The restaurant was too pricy, so we didn’t eat there. The fresh cookies are great and it was very convenient to have a shuttle to Universal on site. Overall, it was a satisfactory experience but will probably try a different hotel next time.

The staff was very friendly, especially Marie in the breakfast restaurant. The lobby clerk was also friendly but her name escapes me unfortunately. Our waiter in the restaurant was very good. He looked just like Paul McCartney. Food was good at both places. We had a room that slept 5. Very spacious and we never felt crowded in the room. The hotel felt very clean and we felt safe. I will be back.
