I would recommend this hotel to anyone, for the location and the value. The early December weekend rate was unbeatable anywhere ($52 a night plus tax, AAA), easy access to I-75 and I-285, and close to the Cumberland Mall. Plenty of options for dining, shopping and activity nearby. There are a multitude of hotels in this vicinity, owing to this Doubletree's competitive rate.
Staff are friendly and helpful, and as I've encountered almost everywhere else in the Atlanta area, easy-going. The lobby area is inviting and comfortable, with a business centre, coffee outlet and restaurant right there. As I encountered during my stay, this property and its amazing rates will tend to attract large groups and functions, so prepare for that kind of traffic. There was obviously a teenage girls soccer competition going on nearby, as they were coming and going from the hotel by the vanload all weekend, but they were not disruptive during the overnight hours.
The rooms appear a bit tired, and the amenities are predictable for Doubletree - warm cookie, comfortable bed and pillows, nice soap and shampoo, fluffy towels, in-room coffee, and a complimentary coffee at the coffee bar. There is free wifi in the lobby only (pay extra for in-room). There's not a lot of channels on TV, which is an older tube-style, but for all that, consider the rates.
I would not hesitate to stay here again on my next visit to Atlanta.
