DoubleTree by Hilton Poughkeepsie Convention Center
Almost everything was great. BUT I can't understand why a hotel that is so good in every other aspect won't put in a wake up in call system.

Residence Inn by Marriott Kingston
The room was very nice and clean. The Mountain View was kind of far and when you check in during winter, it’s already dark so you don’t see much mountain. I didn’t like when you used the hot water, there was a knocking noise coming from the pipes near the toilet.
