Breakfast buffet
Brandee O.

I did not know this hotel was this nice! We had to stay here for a week due to having work completed in our home and it was an unexpected staycation. We went for the hotel breakfast every morning and the servers and staff were so nice! I chatted with Marie for a bit and she was kind and helpful. The housekeepers tending to the rooms were always checking on us and if we needed extras they were delivered to the room quickly. The rooms were clean and the swimming pool and hot tub were well kept. The gym was really nice. They have free weights, treadmills, elliptical, and pelotons!

Someone forgot to wash the glassware.

This a lovely looking hotel that has a restaurant and a bar. They have valet parking for a fee and a paid self parking across the street. Be careful crossing the busy street! If you park on the upper floors in the parking structure, there is a bridge that connects to the hotel. Calling the hotel to speak to the front desk staff or commutating via the Hilton app was difficult and not too efficient. Possibly the toughest issue was trying to get a good nights rest due to the constant train horns throughout the night. This would not be a place for light sleepers. On two occasions I discovered glassware with lipstick stains. This could be a corrected with some simple training. I reserved a room on a lower floor but got put in an upper floor room. Be careful if you have children with the showers having extremely hot water! The water thermostat thermometer temperature may need to be lowered.

We stayed here one night after a show at the Gallo Center for the Arts. We checked in hours before the show, and I noticed a black van and large security looking men outside. One staff member confirmed that we just missed Keanu Reeves and his band! Location is perfect - walking distance to restaurants and the theater. The staff was professional, but the ladies working the Sunday breakfast buffet were outstanding. I wish I could remember her name, but one of our friendly servers brought pancakes for my sister after they chatted for a bit. My sister was surprised and thankful, as she had planned to get them herself after finishing her eggs and other protein. Our room was spacious, clean, and had all of the expected amenities. Definitely recommend this place if you're in Modesto.

Coffee station in the lobby

A solid 2.5 The actual hotel was nice but staff not too much Valet staff were kind and accommodating The front desk staff were not very nice i understand everyone has bad days but you work front desk I am a gold member and have stayed at hotels within the US and international and never have I had staff deny access to towels there were 4 of us in the room we asked for extra sets of towels because we do not use the same towel for our face and body.. we also asked for 2 extra glasses for a total of 4 and staff were reluctant... Idk if they thought we would steal the towels but it was outrageous I have never experienced that before Then my friend called and requested late check out and was told they reached their max for late check our for the day .. but when I went to the front desk they were able to accommodate (weird) I understand room upgrade is based on availability and we were told they were sold out. There may have been an event taking place but I find it hard to believe there are that many ppl visiting Modesto And breakfast free for children under 5 $17 for adults Starbucks coffee ~4/5 a cup I was shocked because it was identical to the complementary breakfast at IHG holiday inn hotels. Yes the $15 pp.room credit would have covered it but the quality wasn't worth it.. the under 5 y/o loved it though so that was nice. Breakfast staff were very kind The bar opens at 4PM and im sure this is normal but I wanted a mimosa at 9AM im assuming thats not normal ‍ again the actual room was nice.. Valley parking $17 a day self park $12 and the parking garage is across the street I always feel paid hotel parking is a scam not to mention the stay was ~250/night for 2 queen beds that looked like full Cleaning staff were also kind as well They had cookies and more paid coffee In the lobby which also dispense hot water

Executive king room
Nicole J.

Stayed for one nice and upon first entering the room and inspecting everything I found food trash on the floor and a nail file. The following morning after using the restroom I noticed an issue with the toilet and called down to the front desk to see if they could send maintenance up to inspect. We had a late checkout and nobody came. We also paid for valet parking and every time we were coming or going between the time they were there we had to ask for them one point we waited 5 min after asking before an employee came.Besides these issues all the staff were super nice and friendly and answered any questions we had.

It's located perfectly near all major roads and places to check out. The guards working the lobby make it feel secure and comfortable. The rooms are okay, the staff is nice, but the bar closes wayyyyyyyyyy too early! That could be a business maker so not sure why the early close. FYI: There is a parking garage right across the street and you can get your ticket validated inside the lobby (front desk). This is a huge bonus! Free parking and not far away at all.

Train tracks right next to the hotel
David L.

The hotel itself was pretty clean and updated, staff was polite and professional, but be aware that there are train tracks right next to the hotel, and trains run by almost every hour throughout the night. On top of that, they feel the need to continuously honk their loud train horn every time they pass by. Not really the hotel's fault, but if you're a light sleeper like me, you might want to ask for a room not facing the train tracks or look elsewhere for a room to get some good sleep.

View from Room

WHY I WENT HERE: - business trip THE LOOK (FROM THE OUTSIDE): - located on the corner of 9th St and L St - valet parking available for $17/day - self-parking at the 9th Street Garage for $12/day (walking bridge access from 3rd floor of parking garage that leads to elevator that takes you to ground level to walk over to the lobby) THE LOOK (FROM THE INSIDE): - very grand; HUGE; definitely for conferences, etc. - 2nd floor outdoor pool and indoor fitness center - room looked older than the lobby; unfortunately had a cockroach at my nightstand CUSTOMER SERVICE: - I was able to check-in and check-out via the Hilton app, but the worker that I spoke to was very kind

Braised Short Ribs
Jason B.

Five Stars - I've Tried It All (Literally), and It's All Outstanding I do not say this lightly: I have had every single dish on the Maxis Restaurant menu at the DoubleTree Modesto...and it has been nothing short of superb across the board. From the Charred NY Steak to the Beer Battered Fish, the Lamb Lollipops to the Falafel Wrap, every plate hits with flavor, balance, and real attention to detail. Whether it is the rich thyme glaze on the Short Ribs or the perfect citrus notes on the Atlantic Salmon, nothing feels like filler...only thoughtfulness and care from kitchen to table. What takes it all to the next level? The bar team. Ron, Dani, Trish, Dino, Brenda, and Teresa are the heart of the place. Each brings their own style and warmth, and together they create an experience that is welcoming, personal, and effortlessly cool. Whether you are sipping something classic or trying something new, you are in excellent hands. Maxis at the DoubleTree is more than a hotel restaurant...it is a culinary haven hiding in plain sight. Come hungry. Leave impressed.

Dusty and Unsanitary!

Me and my crew are doing some fields locations work in the area, so I decided to book us rooms here…read moreat the IHG Holiday Inn Express in Modesto. The hotel is easy to find right off the 99 freeway at the intersection of Sisk Road and Bangs Ave. Plenty of parking. Check in was easy and efficient with the friendly front desk staff, I even got my rewards points posted. My room was clean and ready. First thing I do is check the WiFi and log in my laptop. Yep, everything is working fine, speed is fine. Looking in the bathroom, everything is clean and no stray hairs not of my color or creepy crawly guys running about. The hot water is good and hot, cause I love to take long hot showers when stay at hotels, cause my hot water at home sure doesn't last that long! Breakfast is good as usual, all the same stuff as all the Holiday Inn Expresses. Hot entrees, like eggs, potatoes, and the amusing pancake machine I never use. I love those cinnamon rolls for sure! This hotel is a good location, I'll stay here again.

A winner! This hotel is totally solid for the price. Very friendly staff and best thing is the Mon…read more- Wed evening complimentary beer & wine from 530-630. Cool! Breakfast is standard boring stuff BUT they had SOS (shit-on-shingle) which is sausage gravy w/ biscuits, my Fav! Rooms are clean & functional, great shower - but the tub slopes inward which hurt my feet. Weird things: 1) bathroom door auto closes, so you must prop it for proper air circulation, 2) bathroom smelled smoky but not sure why. Must be from AC vent, 3) bathroom tiles are white and easily scuffed very dirty from my indoor flip-flops. Overall, a really great stay. Has a full fitness center, complimentary breakfast & coffee, some cookies in evening but they go fast, plenty of free parking, near restaurants, Walmart, TJ-Maxx, and mall. Hint - go up the street for happy hour at BJ's.

I should have known what I was in for when I dealt with an incompetent front desk Sandy. She had…read morenever heard of my major credit cards so she couldn't accept them(they only accept ones they've heard of so I'm guessing only local banks or wells fargo). My credit card is a Mastercard through bank of Missouri, not a prepaid not a debit. As I'm standing there to check in a homeless lady on a bike came in. We go to the back to go out room and a gray pickup had a lady giving head in the back I wish I was joking my 15 yr old pointed it out. We get into the building and kids are in the hallways playing. Go to the room and gnats are flying, floor is wet, phone is unhooked, there are cockroaches crawling, and the most disgusting thing I've ever seen, boogers all over the walls. I literally started gagging when the kids pointed them out!! We go to front desk and I'm like yeah I know you're used to people complaining but can we cancel this reservation to go somewhere else and she wad just like no one ever complains, I don't know anything about the rooms, that I have to call Wyndham if i want any help, so I asked her to please put a note on my reservation and she just goes, I can say you left, like uh this is the least helpful front desk. This is exactly why I stay at hilton but this hotel has a sweet spot for me as I really liked the manager and customer service goes a long way for me, but I can't, this was too much. Ghetto from every step of the way, run down, this is where you go if you are getting a $30 blowie or a junkie.

They have a housekeeping staff, yet the rooms are still dreadful and gross. When I opened the room door, I was instantly shocked and realized this was a BIG mistake. Our room reeked of wet dog and cigarettes. The odor was so prominent and intense that no amount of air freshener was able to mask that pungent nasty scent. This disgusting scent remained throughout our entire stay here. I notified 2 cleaning staff and neither of them were even a bit surprised. One handed me a basically empty can of air freshener that quickly finished. I asked another staff member for an air freshener and she didn't have one and said to go to the front desk. Surprise, surprise the front desk was also out of air freshener so we were stuck with this disgusting smell. This hotel is also situated in an extremely ghetto area. Homeless and questionable people roam the premises 24/7. We regularly kept checking our car to verify if it was broken into yet. I always took all of my valuables with me whenever I left the room because I did not trust this place. The people inhabiting the neighboring rooms also looked sketchy and questionable themselves. Almost always did the parking lot reek of marijuana. Carpets in the room and throughout the building are outdated, dirty, and have black stains on them. The furniture in the room was also stained and filthy and the bathroom sink was atrocious. There was a lot of trash outside the entrance of the building, absolutely nothing in the room looked aesthetically pleasing, and the entire room looked abysmal and had an unsanitary and filthy feel to it. When I pulled open the bath curtain to take a shower, I was greeted by a lovely spider. How fun!!!! One of the most sickening parts about staying here were the nasty white stains on the red sheets below the mattress. (Pictures below) Absolutely gross!!!!!! Definitely an off-putting sight seeing white drips/stains on a bed you're supposed to sleep on. It makes you doubt the competence of the housekeeping staff and highly question the cleaning practices of this hotel. Given the conditions, I'm not sure if they even do the bare minimum when it comes to cleaning. If I can still see dirt and stains in the room, it is not fully clean and should NOT be rented out. How is that such a wild concept? I laid down my own blankets on the bed and pillows and never walked barefoot on the carpet as I couldn't even tell what was actually cleaned or washed in this room. Yes, it was that bad! As expected, I barely got any sleep in this place and I repeatedly kept getting woken up by noise and the insufferable cigarette and dog odor that inhabited the entire room. Just by seeing the condition of the room alone, I didn't even dare visit the pool. The staff are also aloof and apathetic. I voiced my complaints to four different employees and none of them were even a tiny bit shocked or apologetic about what I was experiencing. I'm pretty sure they are used to repeatedly hearing the same complaints and are already immune to anything negative you say. I'm genuinely surprised that this place hasn't been shut down by a health inspector yet. It's both scary and laughable to think that people are paying good money to stay in these garbage rooms, when they should instead be getting compensated for surviving a night here. This is by far the dirtiest and worst place I've ever stayed at. I didn't think any other place would beat my Motel 6 experience but this hotel managed to do it. Whoever owns or runs this establishment should be truly ashamed of themselves. Unfortunately, we rented out 2 nights in advance, but the room was so awful that we ended up leaving a day early and lost the money for one entire night. We were quickly reminded by the rude lady at the front desk that there are no refunds. We were fine with that and just wanted to get out of this dump as soon as possible! That's what this place does to you. Makes you run for the hills. Worst $300 ever spent!!!! Sleeping in your car or anywhere else is a wayyyyy better upgrade than staying at this dump.

My family and I are facing a very rough situation and everyone we've met is compassionate, kind, and provides uplifting comments. Areana (the Manager), Marisol, Veronica (Giggles), Cameo, Aaliyah, and so many more - I've met so many genuinely kind people here including the housekeeping staff like Dee (I can't remember names of the others) and the maintenance manager (Paul). I wish I could remember everyone's names and haven't made misspellings; the crew members are better trained and literally run all day long. They work hard but make it look easy and always with a smile on their faces. It appears that everyone is cross-trained and are able to wear many different hats. The rooms are so clean and smell nice, everyone who works here puts customer service first and their complimentary breakfast is great - it has all the basics and then some. If I could rate Spark by Hilton with 10+ stars, I'd do it. I highly recommend it! It's like staying with friends! These folks are the cream of the crop!

It says a lot about a hotel when leadership is willing to step in, listen, and resolve concerns thoughtfully. Thank you to the General Manager for turning a negative experience into a positive one.
