DoubleTree by Hilton Sonoma - Wine Country

DoubleTree by Hilton Sonoma - Wine Country

8/10 Good
"There seems to a plumbing issue going on with the property. Granted that it's 3 stories but the drainage does not seem to work very well when the shower is running and toilet is very slow flushing. The water pipes rattled a bit as well when turned on. AC unit was ok, not great. The bed was comfortable and the room itself was very quiet."
