DoubleTree by Hilton

Gorgeous, clearly-​newer hotel. Some bad things and some good things:
Pros:
–Gorgeous and new. You can definitely tell. Everything is still so shiny and clean. The lobby literally makes the photographer in me happy. Lots of accent furniture and so bright and white.
–Room was extremely clean upon check-​in.
–Staff was really friendly. My first room was on the ground floor and one of the nearby rooms was slightly loud. I called down, and they had me moved into a much quieter room within a couple minutes. Very friendly.
–Fitness room is gorgeous. Tons of treadmills, cable weight machine, medicine balls, room to do body-​weight exercises, mirrors, and more. Absolutely gorgeous.
–The in-​hotel restaurant closes at 10PM. A little early for me. However, literally next door is a Burger King. it’s not high-​class eating, but if you’re hungry, it’s right out the door and to the left. (Not even across a street)
–Free Wi-​Fi. Nothing blazing fast, but I’m using Unilocal and e-​mail just fine with no problems.
–Legitimate mini fridge in the hotel. It’s giant and open, and they didn’t pack it with over-​priced items and leave you no space.
–Price is VERY comparable to all of the 5-​ish hotels here on this block. Would definitely choose this over other ones. It’s actually pretty affordable for what it offers, I would say.
Cons:
–Hotel layout can be a little confusing. It’s long, flat, and winding. Once you find your room, you’ll be able to find it again, but learning the layout of this hotel takes awhile.
–The pool. Since this is a Hilton, I expected a pool for fitness. Nope. It starts at 2 and a half feet and goes up to 4 feet in depth. (4’2″ to be exact). Yes, that’s 4 feet. You can’t really swim laps or tread in the pool. However, the fitness center is nice, and there’s a TV plus seating all over the pool area, so it looks like the pool was more designed for children or social events.
–The pillows. Seriously. Why are they so poofy but get so flat?
–Our room had space for a microwave. There is no microwave. It’s weird.

Brand new hotel in Omaha. Looks amazing and modern. Has all the standard amenities as well including fitness room, pool, business meeting accommodations. The staff is very friendly and helpful. Parking is free. The rooms are very clean and modern flatscreen TVs. Enjoyed my stay.
