After booking the room on Expedia, we arrived to check-in within a 15-minute window as well as late evening (10:40). The front desk person was super understanding and helpful. Since had two young children, they worked to ensure we were provided with a quiet room. They went above and beyond in the customer service department. Kudos!!! They are an awesome representative for the Hampton Inn and Hilton.

I was really, really impressed with how clean the room was. I'm the type of person that peels back the covers and looks in all the nooks and crannies before I can get comfortable. The room was spotless and had a nice fresh smell too. The view from the window was lovely, the staff was extremely nice, and the breakfast was great! This was such a good deal. Unfortunately, the pool was closed while we were there but I understand these things happen. I couldn't be more pleased with our stay. We will definitely be back!

The main parking lot is use by homeless as a crossing path. Didn’t feel unsafe but returning to the hotel at night felt a little scared.

It was a great stay and I’ll come back. Friendly!

Our stay at The Hampton Inn was great. My family and I will definitely come back. Everyone was so nice that worked at the hotel. I was welcomed warmly by the front counter staff in the evening and the morning.
