The push to make things more digital has really not gone well here. I have stayed at this hotel multiple times and used to love the experience. This time was totally different, lacked personal touch and sadly will likely be the last time staying here.

The Doyle appears to be an example of what happens when tech bros decide they want to disrupt the hospitality industry. Here’s what I mean: There’s no front desk. No one is there to greet you or give you your keys. Check-in is via text message. Room keys are 4-digit door codes, also sent via text. The hotel sent me the wrong key code for my room, which, after a long drive through dense nighttime fog, was frustrating because my call for assistance wasn’t to the front desk but a call center somewhere off property, probably overseas. The correct key code was finally sent and we gained entry. Nothing sounded better than a hot shower, but the water was cold and there was no soap or conditioner. Normally, a call to the front desk or housekeeping would address these concerns, but as there’s no staff on property, we had to wait until the next day for refills. There’s also no daily housekeeping unless you want to pay extra. I didn’t think to check for that when booking. There’s no on property parking, but there is valet. Sometimes. We left our car with valet, and to retrieve it required doing so via text, which we did, but that night, the valet stand packed up and gone. Luckily, when we did find someone who worked at the hotel, he found our keys and told us where to find our car. This person was never seen again. Imagine we needed our car and he wasn’t there? He suggested we write a review sharing our experience. Hospitality via text doesn’t work. You still need the human touch.

This was the first time staying at a hotel without a front desk, and not gonna lie I was a little nervous, however they texted the link to my phone to check in and out and the code for our room when it was ready. It was very confident and easy and I very much like the keyless entry! We had a few small issues with WiFi and hot water and they were quick to respond. The only reason they didn’t get 5 stars is because of the location and parking; the hotel is hard to spot because the building is thin and doesn't have a sign. There is also no parking. No street parking, no parking lot which would not be a problem if they had complimentary valet, but they don't. Valet was $25 a day which was an unexpected expense and honeslty very inconvenient as my handicap mother and infant daughter (3 months old) were traveling with me.

Restaurant staff was nice, but general customer service for the hotel room was not helpful. I called to request a room change because our small window faces a brick wall, making the room feel very closed in. I never received a call after speaking with someone who said they would contact their management or text back, so we ended up stuck in the same room. There’s also what appears to be a frat Christmas party with over a hundred young college students happening in the lobby which has made it impossible to use the amenities on the main lobby. The room itself has several maintenance issues: the bathroom door doesn’t fully close, the toilet paper holder is coming off the wall, and there are random marks on the back of the door. The walls are very, very thin so you can hear any activity in the hall. On a positive note, the shower pressure was nice and the bed was comfortable. Overall, a very disappointing experience aside from the restaurant staff and the holiday decor in the restaurant.

tl;dr stay anywhere but here. Customer service and amenities are non-existent despite the premium price. We wanted to like this hotel. From the start I was not happy with the 100% virtual communication and providing my ID and photo via software. The parking was two blocks away and the code entry info was confusing. To make matters worse, my young son got sick during the first night of our two night stay and could not make it to the bathroom before he vomited in the floor. We cleaned up as best we could, advised the management the next morning, and requested a room cleaning for anytime that day. The person I was in contact with via text told us that we could only request a room cleaning a day in advance and for a $60 charge. Yes, I understand this was in the "fine print" but this is an unexpected and unfortunate circumstance that any reputable business should help you through. As of the next afternoon, we have gotten no help from the management except some extra towels. Not a vaccum, carpet cleaning spray, nothing. We are left with no option except to prop our door open to help dissipate the smell while we try to comfort our sick child. Its incredible that you get no level of customer care in an unfortunate situation for the premium cost of this room. If you're reading this review I would highly recommend sticking with Hilton or Marriott options. They may not be boutique options, but they will offer help and customer care commensurate with the price.

Overall I enjoyed my stay at the Doyle. I did not enjoy the awkward parking situation. For self park there are no signs leading you to the parking lot which was not easy to find. I also do not care for the automated no person at the front desk thing. Very impersonal and un welcoming. I did however enjoy my stay every though it seemed like it was run by a bunch of robots.
