DoubleTree by Hilton Hotel Burlington Vermont

On m’a chargé pour le petit déjeuner et nous avons eu une mauvaise information donc nous n’avons pas eu accès à celui-ci. De plus, il semble y avoir eu des frais supplémentaires à ma carte de crédit.

Class hotel with good free parking and great breakfast

Nothing

nice lobby, decent large room

the pullout had no bedding. Front desk took a while to bring bedding. had to bring 2ce did not bring top sheet or blanket. The linens were highly wrinkled.

Let's start with the good things. All the staff were great -- friendly and helpful. The room was clean and had everything I needed. The gym is pretty well equipped. The hotel common spaces were attractive. It is steps from the UVM campus and was walkable for meetings I had, so it was very convenient. Ok, now for the less good: If I were to stay there again, I'd entirely skip the food. The tavern has lovely staff who provide great service, and it has good beer -- but the food is terrible and is massively over-priced. Ditto for the breakfast. Bring your own food or eat elsewhere for a better value. Lastly, the truly bad: The reason I am not likely to stay again relates to the scents. The sheets are washed in a perfumed detergent, which many Americans feel smells "clean." For me, it is like poison. It gives me a headache and makes feel unwell. It stuck to my clothing and followed me home. I stay in plenty of hotels that use unscented detergent and I sure wish this was universal. I mention this because some people get very sick from scents like this and it could derail their vacation stay.

Staff was friendly and helpful. It was clean, comfortable and the bonus for me was the coffee ready and hot at an incredibly early time in the lobbby area. The coffee maker in the room did not work but with coffee available in the lobby I actually preferred. . Thank you!
