Hampton Inn is now my go-to

I drove from Atlanta to Tuscaloosa for my grandson's graduation and to spend time with my daughter and her family. The two ladies that greeted me at the front desk were happy, smiling and so welcoming. They assured me that the type of room I requested was available and my necessities were met. The entrance area was huge and well kept. I requested a single queen and that was exactly what I got. When I entered my room it felt welcoming and was very clean as was the bathroom, which had more towels than I would use for the entire length of my stay. There was a hair dryer, bottles of body lotion, shampoo, etc. No sample/travel size, but full 16oz bottles! The room was very nice. There was a small fridge, microwave, single cup coffee maker, dresser, closet with iron and ironing board, desk, comfortable chairs and a large TV that even had a screen welcoming me by name. Never had that before. The bed was soooo comfortable as were the pillows. I slept VERY well which rarely happens for me. I didn't think about taking pictures until after I brought all my bags into the room and had started unloading my things. Not only was the interior of the hotel clean and inviting, the grounds and parking lot were well maintained. Overall, I was so impressed with this hotel. I've never stayed in a Hampton Inn before this, but I plan on booking with Hampton Inn from now on.
