Well located at a good price.

Really nice, clean hotel. Well located, within walking distance of major attractions with the added benefit of a bus stop outside for the hop on, hop off service. Only slight negative was the knowledge and communication of staff at breakfast. My wife is coeliac and the information varied depending on who you spoke to. She ended up using her own cereal to be safe.

The room on first floor was situated over the street with floor to ceiling windows. Getting ready in wee hours was like a cave with window shades needing to be closed for privacy. No mirrors near any outlets for hair tools. Felt like a cave. Stayed at this Doubletree before and other rooms were better. Lived previous visit, this room was meh.
