“Great Location, smaller hotel”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 12 March 2010
2
people found this review helpful

If you want to stay in a hotel that is close to shopping and eating establishes then this is your place. You can walk to many places from this Hampton. The hotel fits the standards of most Hamptons with quality linens, comfortable beds, wireless internet, and clean, well maintained bathrooms. There was no mold or torn wall paper. The decor was slightly dated and the room was smaller. This Hampton property is a smaller property than I am used to from other Hampton stays. There is an agreement with a full service health club which allows your free access with your room key. The exercise facility is less than 5 minute drive. The pool and spa are indoor and perfect size for smaller children. I would stay here again.

“A very good stay...could be cheaper though..”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 11 October 2009
3
people found this review helpful

We stayed here for one night in summer 2009 on our way crossing the US. We were looking for something not far away from the Highway and affordable.
That was not easy to get. The cheaper chains here in this town are really run-down and the bigger names way too overpriced. In the end we chose to pay a little more and picked out this place. Others did even charge more.
The location was convenient for us, the street system here is really easy and you'll get fast anywhere. There loads of stores and food options nearby (check out Kiko's Mexican Restaurant).
The Check-In was really friendly and recommended us a great restaurant. The room (we got a double queen...it was quite booked out) was nice, good sized and very clean. There also was a fridge and a microwave. The place felt very safe and we had a good, quiet night.
If you stay overnight in this town, try to get a place fast. We were here on a monday around 4pm and it was really hard to find a place with rooms left.
We probably would stay in this Hotel again...but it could be cheaper than this (around 100$). But the staff and rooms are very good.

“OK, could use some better staff”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 29 September 2009
2
people found this review helpful

I stay at many Hampton Inns and this one was decidedly average. The staff could not direct me to a store that sold medicine, even though I quickly discovered a well known superstore walking distance from the property. The room had a rather pronounced musty smell which I think came from the air conditioner. As it was July, not running the AC was not an option. The breakfast was just OK, I've had better at other properties. Overall, it served my purposes but nothing to rave about. I'll recommend if one needs to be in the immediate area since the property was adequately clean and secure.

“Fine stay”

No complaints. Room was clean, breakfast was fine but crowded. Our family of 4 never got sit at the same table, but it was not a big deal. Good location. I'd certainly return.
