Checking in is a bit of a hassle with location, BUT the staff definitely makes up for any inconvenience. Hotel is always clean and quiet. Love the coffee/hot chocolate bar available 24/7. Was perfect coming in one chilly evening! .

Liked: Cleanliness
The hotel is older so the rooms could use a renovations. They show their age. More specifically, the HVAC systems are noisy and the bathrooms, while clean, need updating to remove the old wallpaper, dirty tile grout and gobs of caulk around the tub, etc. The staff was great and friendly so I give them 5 stars but only 3 stars for the condition of the hotel.

Check in: As I was completing the check-in, I asked the desk clerk to confirm the cost of the reservation and asked that the cost be split between two credit cards. His response was that the cost was $758.52 ($379.26 x 2) At that point, I showed my reservation confirmation from Expedia to the clerk that listed a price of $751.95. His response was that the electronic communication from Expedia required that Hampton Inn charge me $758.52. He further told me that he did not know why they sent the reservation to me showing the lower rate. Soon, Matt, the manager, came out of his office over to the side to find out what was going on. I explained to him that there was a discrepancy between the Expedia confirmation and the cost that the desk clerk was charging me. Matt diffused the situation by telling me that it would not be a problem. He assured me that he would take care of it, and, we would be charged $751.95 at check out. I questioned Matt as to when the correction would be made and he told me that it would be taken care of at check-out. My sister and traveling companion, Rev. Dr. Naomi Davis, was listening to the conversation. We believed Matt intended to “take care of the problem”, we completed the credit card payments, and we went to our room. Recommendation: Don't claim that you are going to solve a problem prior to running a customer's credit card and, then, change and deny your responsibility after you have taken the money. That's bad behavior.

This location was ideal for sight seeing and shopping and great food nearby. The hotel it’s across the street from the Visitor Center and bid station - and the buses are free! Every staff member we encountered was friendly and knowledgeable. It was the best hotel stay I’ve ever experienced.

The hotel is very dated and needs remodeling. The bathroom floor had trash on the floor and the toilet paper had been replenished upon arrival. Our room had an adjoining door capability, but the deadbolt was not functioning. In the middle of the night, the neighboring guests were banging on the door, trying to open the door. I woke up to notice that the door was cracked open, and the only thing preventing a stranger from entering was the metal safety feature. I shut the door back and called the front desk. The front desk staff member was very attentive and was able to relocate us to a new room quickly. It was a very frightening and unsafe situation as I was traveling alone with my daughter.
