From the moment that I checked in with Pamela, it was great. My boyfriend and I went there for Halloween horror nights and our stay at the doubletree was nothing short of wonderful. The beds were comfortable, everything was clean. And I would definitely come back again. Especially for the delicious cookies! :)
