All the staff that we encountered had a great attitude, and the young girl working in the kitchen was very nice and even asked us if there was anything we needed before she closed up. As for the housekeeping, I believe the vacuuming could be better whereas we had crumbs in our room upon arrival and the amount of rags to towels ratio didn't match. Otherwise great place to stay!

This hotel was convenient for where we wanted to go, and overall appeared clean until our daughter went to get into bed and found hair in the sheets. She slept on top of the bed the whole night. Room was comfortable and nice breakfast the next morning, but that one issue made us unsure we would come back.

We have stayed here a couple times before. It is a great location with very friendly staff and easy check-in. Our room was very comfortable and super clean (I am very picky). We used the pull-out sofa, and it was fine for our son. The breakfast was well-stocked with typical Hampton Inn waffles, eggs, bacon/sausage, yogurt, fruit, cereal, juice, coffee, etc. There was plenty of comfortable seating. The four of us (me, my husband and two kids) used the small workout room and it was fine, with one elliptical, one peloton, and one treadmill, along with free weights. The white chocolate macadamia nut cookies and orange-infused water in the lobby were tasty. The pool was near our room, but the walls were well insulated, and we never heard any noise at all. Overall, an excellent stay and we would recommend!
