Was great. Always try and find Hampton Inns wherever we go. This location charged $75 for a pet where others charge $25, though. Also the front desk was a little abrupt when we arrived around 1am

Great hotel!
This was a very nice hotel. The mattresses were too hard and tended to sag in the middle. Room was fresh, lobby inviting, breakfast was awesome! Great coffee area with different teas and the grand kids were so happy to see hot chocolate. Loved the amenities of pleasant scented shampoo, conditioner, body wash, lotion and liquid hand soap dispensers. Smart tv. Grandkids loved the indoor pool. Lounging area in lobby very comfortable with tv and cozy sitting areas.

This hotel was very clean. Room was large. Door let quite a bit of light and noise from hallway in. Breakfast was good but for the price of the room, could have had a few more options. Overall our stay was pleasant.
