When I book a Doubletree Hotel there is an anticipation that the property will be above average. The hotel in downtown Schenectady was not. The bathroom was extremely small. The blankets on the bed were inadequate. The facial tissue dispenser was empty.

Liked: Cleanliness
There are certainly worst places to stay at ends connectedy, but this is definitely a Hilton that does not quite live up to the brand. Some small issues in my room such as a flickering light fixture, refrigerator being too cold and freezing my food and drinks, very slow service, overpriced bad food. I think the staff is friendly enough, although service can be very slow, I don't blame them entirely. I feel like the issue is operational /management. It wasn't dirty however.
