Breakfast was good and great area. Front desk guy was a little bit grumpy because of food and the kids were playing. Wouldn’t let us have foot or drinks in pool area though it was New Year’s Eve. Don’t think he enjoys customers

I don’t travel often, but when I need a place to stay for a night, I always go to the Hampton Inn. The one in Altoona is so easy to get to - right next to the interstate. It’s always a pleasant place to stay. The rooms are always clean and ready when I arrive. I love the convenience of breakfast in the morning. There is always a very good choice of food and the coffee is always ready! It’s a great place to stay!
