We stayed here 2 years ago and it was a pleasant experience. So much so that we had our friend fly in from LA to stay. This time it was a nightmare. There was dangerous construction going on (my husband actually got hurt). It was very loud and they closed the pool bar so you had to go inside to order any food. Most places would have waitstaff to make up for this. They should have on the website that they were under construction. They also shut off the water 2 nights in a row. This is unsanitary and disgusting. When my husband went to ask the front desk about it along with asking for toilet paper since they didn't provide that from housekeeping the front desk receptionist started an actual fight with my husband who was just asking a question and had the nerve to get volatile. We think she may have been drinking because she was slurring her words. This was the evening of 7/2 at 12:30am for any manager who wants to address thisl. We left the next day and never will return.

I booked a birthday weekend JUNE 2025 at the DoubleTree Hilton Grand Hotel, unaware that the property was undergoing significant construction. Unfortunately, this information was not disclosed at the time of booking. Upon arrival, we discovered that the pool area was surrounded by ongoing construction on the deck, and the first through third floors were filled with dust. Additionally, there were large dumpsters placed directly outside the patio areas, and the bedding and comforters were noticeably unclean. Construction workers were present throughout the property, creating an atmosphere far from what was advertised. After driving nine hours based on the hotel’s website and the information provided by the booking agent, we were extremely disappointed to find ourselves stuck the first night of our vacation. WE WERE TOLD THAT WE COULD JUST CHECK OUT IF WE WERE NOT SATISFIED OR WAIT TIL THE FOLLOWING DAY AND GET A RENOVATED ROOM...Also after paying they held our money and we still do not have it back 5 days later. They Stated it is depending on the bank when our money goes back to us. Do not go here. Read less
