I would not recommend. First we were surprised with a $15 per day charge for parking...several blocks from downtown and only 10 cars in the lot! The "hot" food for breakfast was not edible most days so just ate cereal. Pillows were terrible, could not get comfortable. And lastly, the hot tub, which we enjoyed previously, was out of service the last night of our stay. We won't be staying here again.

Booked with hotels.com, which advertised pet friendly but didnt say anything about a charge. After checking in, the front desk lady calls and is very rude and tells me i need to fill out a form and shes charging my card $75. After trying to explain it to her, she says "im not discussing this anymore" and tells me to ill have to talk to someone the nezt korning. This was my first time staying at a hampton and will definitely be my last.
