I don’t travel often, but when I need a place to stay for a night, I always go to the Hampton Inn. The one in Altoona is so easy to get to - right next to the interstate. It’s always a pleasant place to stay. The rooms are always clean and ready when I arrive. I love the convenience of breakfast in the morning. There is always a very good choice of food and the coffee is always ready! It’s a great place to stay!
