A fire alarm was activated in the middle of the night due to a technical glitch…… I felt the staff handle things in a very professional, courteous and understanding manner even though many patrons were inappropriately blaming them for the problem Overall, everyone affiliated with the hotel provided excellent service especially the restaurant and bar staff who went above and beyond lend beyond providing patrons with extra service We look forward to our next stay at the Double Tree !
