I can usually book at Hampton with confidence in a clean room and pleasant stay. This location was far above my expectations! The staff were friendly and accommodating. The hotel is so nice - it just felt good walking in. The room was immaculate and also the floor to ceiling window made it feel so spacious, with a great view of downtown! I asked for the highest floor available, and the front desk associate put us on the top floor without hesitation. It was quiet, the bedding was so comfy, there was even a ceiling fan! I will definitely stay here again!
