Wonderful

Breakfast was efficient…room was very clean and all of our needs were met. Struggled a little with check out assistance at the front desk but overall our experience was fantastic!
The room was clean and comfortable with plenty of towels. My only concern was the breakfast, I've had much better breakfast at other Hampton inns where I have stayed.
Pros: Gated parking lot, free coffee in the lobby, free breakfast
Cons: Industrial smell, loud AC

Rare that I give reviews but this place is worth my time to sit down and state that the room was excellent, very clean, the bed was very comfortable and the room was quiet. Staff was great. great location to food and Starbucks a block away.
Room was modern and clean and comfortable. Loved TV entertainment set up as we logged into our Netflix account. Great breakfast, hit and ready. Would stay again.
