Richard Hintz Review of Doubletree Times Square South
Summary based on 1 midweek visit:
Summary based on 1 midweek visit:
--not great tourist location, too far from mid town, but ok if you're looking for something in the Hilton chain that's less expensive and not that far from Penn Station or Times Square. Good for Fashion District location.
--rooms smaller than many Hiltons
--aircon floor/wall mounted unit in the room, like Courtyards. Less noisy than some.
--friendly staff, but sometimes overwhelmed at the desk
--good wifi with rare easy connect, even for smartphones
--small, but ok fitness center
--quiet street, but therefore less active for taxis than most
--several inexpensive places to eat fairly nearby
--management involved and sent first ever email before arrival
--ok elevator speed
--couldn't get early check-in
--breakfast buffet better than average
--if you have higher status with Hilton, your upgraded room may be disappointing
