Comment re Double Tree stay July 12-13 2024 PROS: Easy to find location, felt safe because you had to use hotel card for all entries; since I'm older, it was great that the room was close to elevator; quiet and not noisy, my niece and I were able to sleep; restaurants and stores nearby and in walkable distance; easy parking; niece used the clean pool; tv, a/c and refrigerator worked; towels/wash cloths stocked. CONS: Room did not have a microwave, so I had to go to first floor to heat up food; feet dirty, assuming from carpet; UNFAIR CHARGE OF 6.45 CENTS FOR TWO BOTTLES OF WATER assumed it was free because I've never been in a hotel where water wasn't complimentary; couldn't move shower head which made it difficult to manipulate the hot/cold without water in my face; the check-in receptionist was very cordial; the check-out receptionist didn't even smile or thank me for my stay.

This property is fine for a quick stay and is convenient to UF Health. There are plenty of options for dining or shopping within walking distance and the price is reasonable. The property is clean enough but certainly not sparkling and could certainly use a deep clean and some repairs. There was a few mold spots in the shower and the floor looked grungy. The mirrors and chrome surfaces were cracking and peeling. But nothing was a deal breaker. Beware they do authorize your credit card for $00/day for incidentals which is the most I have ever been charged at a Hilton property.
