I decided to have my 50th birthday party here as it was conveniently located and the parking was ample. I had a wonderful birthday, but my overall experience with working with the event coordinator was not what I was hoping for given the cost that I was incurring for the event. I had an event planner for my party and she found it difficult to get in touch with the coordinator after the initial meeting. I personally did not like that when negotiating the services, there was an unwillingness to comp small things like the $40 for the sparkling cider we used for my toast. The night of the party, we informed the event coordinator that the dance floor was too close to the head table and she didn't want to have it moved back. She went ahead and asked the staff to do it, but informed us that we shouldn't ask for anything else to be done that night. I spent the weekend at the hotel and she told us there would be no discount for that. I am not a person that will nickel and dime anyone for services that I am receiving, but I am always going to return to a business that is willing to make my experience so memorable that I will have no choice but to hold another special event there or recommend it to others. Unfortunately, this Doubletree's enthusiasm to see me return was wanting.
