DoubleTree by Hilton Hotels in Roseville

I'm not one to do reviews, but patrons should be warned for the rates this hotel charges. This hotel's rooms are in need of an update and improved maintenance; neither of these met what you'd expect from the Hilton brand or the price they charge, especially your room is supposed to be one of their best, a King Jr Suite. It appears they've attempted to put lipstick on this outdated hotel to get a pass by updating the lobby, including a well known restaurant and updating rooms with a modern tile shower. However, everything else is outdated, in poor condition or quality and in some cases not maintainedroken. Chipped furniture, squeaky doors, faucets, drains, and outlets that do not work properly, in room coffee maker corroded and improperly sound proofed walls where you can hear everything in neighboring rooms and the hallway. The restaurant, didn't eat there but felt like we did. We could strongly smell whatever they were cooking as if it was being prepared in our room, not desirable for your room used to sleep. The only positive about this hotel is its location and friendly service staff. The maids and maintenance staff were always courteous and friendly in the halls. Also, as a native to this area its a great location close to the interstate, malls, restaurants, downtown, Mpls and St Paul, plus events like the MN State Fair. Unfortunately, they have let this hotel's quality severely decline which is not inline with the rates they charge! We did complain, no credit and only one issue of multiple reported fixed, the squeaky door. We were looking for our next regular hotel to stay at in this area we travel to frequently, but this will not be it. We will not stay here again.
