The sheets had black hair in them and didn’t look clean. Looked like they made the bed but didn’t change the sheets! Fan in the bathroom didn’t work. Our towels didn’t have anymore “fluff” to them. But the beds themself were comfortable, and front desk people were great!

1. We really liked the handy little drawers in the bathroom. 2. Loved the barn door bathroom and the soap/shampoo dispensers. 3. the hot tub didn't work- no bubbles, water looked dirty, railing was broken- for some time judging by the rust. 4. The chlorine in the pool was so severe I got a bad rash, this is with showering right away. It discolored several of the swimsuits of our family. When we complained about it the staff said it was checked regularly. I am a maintenance person and know you have to verify by testing it yourself. I wish I could send a pic of the damaged swimsuit. Even after washing the clothes they still smell like bleach. One of the primary reasons for staying at Hampton Inn is the pool. The overall experience was better than other stays at competitors.
