Great place to stay, but….

I enjoyed my stay at the Doubletree very much. It was within walking distance to Universal Studios. The chocolate chip cookies were a nice treat every day. Kids enjoy the swimming pool. Just disappointed that they didn’t offer shuttle service to Universal Studios when I called They said they did. I got on the bus and the bus driver told me he did not go there and to get off the bus, he’s gotta go. Thought I was kind of rude. Ended up getting an Uber. They had a schedule power outage from midnight to 5:30 in the morning That was not their fault that was terribly uncomfortable, especially in the middle of July in Florida. The $33 parking a day is crazy. That’s an extra $100 to our bill. The lobby was clean. Did not like their shower curtains for the bathtub.

Would give zero stars if possible. We booked this hotel 3 months out and when I checked in they told me the room I booked was no longer available. I find this hard to believe as I was 6 hours early for my check in so obviously they overbooked. To make it up to me they said they would upgrade my room however the room they gave me was well below my expectations and without the view I paid for. The room smelt and was in need a facelift at the least. One elevator kept breaking down and the other 2 are not far behind. They felt unsafe. Breakfast was terrible and we struggled to find any clean cutlery. The food looked unsafe to eat and we didn’t trust it wouldn’t make us sick however staff were friendly and apologetic. Charged US$27+tax (AUS$43) for to 2 small ice creams in a cup for the kids in the lobby. Well overpriced. After check out I looked at my account to find 2 pending charges on it. One for the room that I can understand but the second was for about US$1,500 (AUS$2,230) for what I was told by the manager over the phone later that day was for incidentals however I never charged anything to my room. This matter is still being investigated as it’s hard to get a hold of anyone over the phone with any authority to make a decision. So currently still waiting for reimbursement of this charge as of writing this review. Lastly I wouldn’t recommend this hotel to anyone and believe the Hilton brand shouldn’t be associated with this hotel. Don’t book here.

i liked that we were able to walk to universal and the surrounding restaurants. you do have to pay a daily parking fee for the hotel which i wasn’t aware of until i was checking in. but they also had a starbucks and restaurants inside the hotel, so when you woke up you were able to get some food without going far! everyone who worked there was nice and our room was clean & comfortable.
