Front desk was very friendly giving us a cookie and bottles of water. The American Grill had excellent food and our server was very good as well. The power was out when we checked into the hotel so that was kind of an issue in the beginning but we still got our room before 4:00. Our only complaint was that the water in the pool was way too warm. Not refreshing at all. I know it’s hot in Florida but some places have cooling systems for their pools and the doubletree should invest in one. The hotel itself is a bit tired and in need of some updating including the common areas, rooms and bathrooms. Overall we had a nice time and our primary reason for visiting was to go to Universal Parks. The hotel provided transportation to and from the parks, just wish the shuttle went back n forth all day long instead of just certain times.

Disliked: Staff & service, property conditions & facilities

First time staying at this property, the staff was very rude, and unprofessional. Everyone look like they were having a bad day. It was very dirty and dated, no one answers the phone at the reception desk. Housekeeping doesn’t clean the room regularly, and 1 day our room did not have any water, and we had issues with toilet the entire vacation. The elevator was horrible, at least one or two was not working at times. I did speak to the manager 1 day, but not much was done. I was told that I would be given points for the inconvenience, but as of now still nothing. Starbucks was no better, everyone there was rude, no smile at all. They have a Very nice pool, but the pool bar is a joke. Overpriced with watered drinks. Seems like the staff at this hotel just hates their job. We did get very good food and service at the sunshine Café for breakfast, and also the pizza shop. Location is good, especially if you’re planning on going to Universal, which is walking distance. But if you’re looking for good service with a pleasant staff, that care's about your stay, that’s clean and in good working condition avoid this location.

Aside from the room needing a slight upgrade, the bathroom smelled wet due to not having vents to remove the steam after showering, I had to go out and purchase a plug in. The hotel was nice & quiet. Excellent location to Universal, lots of amenities for a seven year old, she especially liked the ice cream parlor and splash pad. I will stay again. Bathroom needs upgrading for sure.

It was decent for the price. Housekeeping staff are absolutely helpful and they clean your place beautifully so you get back to a clean bed. I didnt use the fitness center or pool. We used the starbucks on the premises which is helpful as there is no other breakfast. Front desk staff are not all that friendly, they look at you as if you are wasting their time - as a tourist destination this should change. Maybe it was because I was Indian but they should treat tourists without difference.

Good for free shuttle if you actually use it!

We stayed here for access to universal. But we only used the free shuttle once. It was the best shower I have ever had. Wonderful water pressure after hot days at the parks. Beds were very comfy. Starbucks and restaurants on first floor was a perk. We ended up “car sharing” to the parks so I don’t know if I would stay here on purpose again. But it was a good stay overall!

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.
