Very nice gentlemen
June 22, 2025

I spoke with Leonel on the phone about booking a room for my mom's open heart surgery at north western memorial hospital. He did an amazing job he took his time and patience out to help me find one close to the hospital.

Great Customer Service
July 13, 2025

In a last minute decision to extend an overnight stay at the beach, we called to reserve a room. Given it's the 4th of July weekend, we knew we were taking a chance. A young man by the name of Eric Osciel answered the phone, and what a pleasant surprise! Polite, patient, professional. With multiple other calls on hold, and yet he took his time to ensure we were taken care of and had all that we needed. You could almost hear him smile through the phone when we were talking. I hope this young man is recognized for his kindness and courtesy and his wonderful telephone presence. 25 years in customer service myself, I can tell you this young man knows what it's all about.

Help - frustration over DOUBLE bill
June 26, 2025

Augustin was great on the phone but the billing department charged me for two nights and I only stayed one night. Billing department will NOT return my calls - I have left several messages for Tiffany in billing. I am very disappointed.
I chose Doubletree to have the security I would be taken care of and I was double billed and haven't received a call back. *******469

Hotel Registry
June 12, 2025

Given a health issue, my voice is difficult to understand - especially over the phone. Robert could not have been kinder or more understanding as I booked my stay at Kahler on June 2. A few weeks prior, I stayed at Kahler with my son - who has cancer - and that was my first exposure to Robert. He is clearly a sensitive, caring and most helpful young man. I hope you know how fortunate you are to have hired such a sensitive and wonderful person. At that time, another employee - who is from Ireland, but I don't remember his name - was also so kind and helpful. You have a terrific staff, and I thank you for it.

You were not good at all.
July 6, 2025

You quoted me the wrong number and the wrong hotel and then when I asked you about it, you didn't even tell me that you made a mistake but instead just quoted me a new number significantly higher than the first number. Feels like it was a total scam from the start.

Help with cancellation
July 12, 2025

Pedro assisted me with trying to cancel my reservation. He was kind enough to send me a link to my trip insurance so I could start the refund request process. He also said if I wasn't able to cancel to call them back.

Amazing service!
June 8, 2025

My agent Selam went above and beyond my expectations trying to help my out-of -town friend find a last minute room that would fit her budget for an important event the next day. She even called the hotel to confirm what our concerns were. It's so appreciated to still have customer service who cares. Thank you again.

The gentleman abruptly hung up on me when I was trying to get him to clarify whether or not the hot tub was still in the basement. He originally said in the room? I said no the basement. He mumbled and I tried and asked again if it was in the basement. He never answered he never said by, never said is there anything else. He hung up the phone. With my question not clearly answered and being hung up on iwent elsewhere.

Hotel reservation
June 10, 2025

I called to make a reservation last second for my son's rugby tournament and many hotels were sold out because it's a national tournament. It was a last-minute reservation that was needed with not a lot of hotels available in my preferences were very picky, I needed to be close to where my son's team was staying, the price was important and other preferences. The reservationist was super helpful patient and took a long time to accommodate me and very patient. I would definitely use this company again to make future hotel reservation reservations.

I spoke with Jessica on 5/25/2025 trying to make reservations at zone Inn and Suites on Cottonwood, Arizona. There was a glitch of sorts with that site. Her patience was impressive. She kept trying in a calm, polite manner.

Night reservation
May 31, 2025

We were driving from Phoenix Az to Santa Fe NM on a quick unplanned trip. We planned to spend the night in Albuquerque. To our dismay there were no vacancies at all the hotels I called. Thankfully I was able to connect with Carlos Fabian and he was so helpful. Truly appreciated his assistance and he found us a place to stay the night.
