Stayed at the DoubleTree in Jackson, and overall it was pretty meh for the price. Check-in was fineâthey give you cookies (apparently their thing), and the front desk guy talked fast but was helpful enough.
I booked this place mostly for the indoor/outdoor pool. I even called ahead to make sure it was open. We checked in late afternoon, and surpriseâit was closed for âengineering.â I pushed back a little since that was the main reason I chose the place, and thankfully they reopened it. The pool was actually pretty nice once it was open, though the indoor side was colder than expected.
The hotel itself is clean but dated. Our room was oddly shaped, hot and humid at first, and just kind of had that old-hotel feel. AC fixed the temp, and everything worked, but the layout was weird. Bathroom was spotless, thoughâprops for cleanliness.
The attached restaurant was underwhelming. Cocktails were disappointing, and the food was just okay (mine was super salty). My water tasted soapy, but Leticia, our server, noticed and immediately brought me a fresh glass of bottled water without any fuss. She was incredibly attentive, kind, and checked in on every table with genuine care. Her service really elevated the meal. Honestly, sheâs the kind of person who brings real value to any teamâany place would be lucky to have someone like her.
If youâre in Jackson on business, itâs passable. It beats a motel, but donât expect anything special.
