Very functional and clean. Don’t expect good restaurants or conveniences near by, but it’s clean and with the right room I’m sure not too noisy.

Room faced the highway and was really noisy. Staff was very helpful and pleasant to work with. Overall a decent place to stay for an overnight trip. Extended stays, I would suggest going elsewhere

This was our second visit to this Hampton Inn property in two weeks. Clean. Conveniently located. Well-illuminated parking. And an adequate breakfast.

Not a typical Hampton Inn, just upgraded version of a motel. No one at the counter anytime, I had to wait over 6 minutes before little 4 girl came out a side room. It took another 2 min for a woman come out and ask what do I need, really! Breakfast was terrible, front desk guy was doing all the work, most of breakfast items seems stale or not fresh. I paid over $165 for a night and this is disappointing. Hilton should not sell franchise to anyone.

Rooms were clean and bed comfortable. There was a lot of trash laying around the outside of the hotel, but inside seemed well kept. Dining area was clean and recently redone. Breakfast was decent with several options and good coffee.

I reserved a 1 king bedroom for 2 nights and when I got there my room wasn’t ready so I got put in a twin bedroom instead only for that room to have stains on the bed. I went to the front desk to ask someone about it around 730 and the front attendant wasn’t there for the 20 mins that I stood to wait and when I went back to my room I called down 3 different times to no answer. Don’t go here it’s trash tbh

This is a newer property so it's not run down, it's just not clean. Moldy shower and shower curtains, bathroom floor not cleaned thoroughly (hair on the floor), room not vacuumed in some time. Peloton in workout room seemed to be newish but missing a pedal. Overall stay was adequate, we were only there a matter of hours thankfully but we were surprised how dirty it was.
