We had a good stay, unfortunately voices from the other rooms and hallway were definitely noticeable from the inside of our room. But our location was within walking disoriented places of interests.

Staff were very nice and very accommodating. We paid for the convenience of this hotel’s location. It is pretty tired and the rooms & bathrooms are showing some significant wear and tear. Hampton Inn bedding is not very nice. It’s enough to make me want to switch from Hilton to Marriott (Hampton vs courtyard - courtyard’s bedding wins every time.)

The location of this property makes shopping and dining very walkable. While the overnight parking is pricey it is competitive with the options in the area. The pool is a nice option for the kids to spend some time. The breakfast is convenient and tasty. Our biggest complaint though was the beds were not comfortable. They are in need of a refresh or replacement.
