Liked: Staff & service, property conditions & facilities
There were 2 things that were a problem. 1) A cricket in the bathroom ceiling vent kept us awake most the night. It made us feel that there were bugs in the ceiling and walls all around us. 2) We felt trapped with only one place to eat dinner. Our GPS couldn't get us to the hotel without a lot of false turns. We didn't want to venture out at night to find another place to eat because we were concerned about finding our way back.

Beds were a bit too firm for my liking, but otherwise no complaints. The hotel connects to Amristar through a long hallway that goes through the Holiday Inn next door. It was convenient to hit up the buffet even when it was raining.

Room was great

Bed and room was great - wish I had brought my own pillow. The provided ones aren’t great! Also wish vegan options for breakfast would be an option for food allergies- almond milk for example - bacon everyday - close to all the things we had planned - lobby smelled amazing

A nice relaxing stay

I booked Hampton Inn because previous stays have always been stress free and pleasent. They have a shuttle service that took us to Stir-cove for a concert that evening. We called them later after the concert and were picked up 5 min later. The The hotel is clean, the room was nice and quiet and clean. We plan on booking again for future visits.
