Trip saved
Pros:

We stayed at the Hampton wheb we helped our daughter move. Julianna H was so helpful and accommodating to us. She fixed our issues immediately. If every hotel had a Julianna they would have a 5 out if 5 stars. We will definitely come back and stay here.

Nice, clean hotel. My bathroom had been renovated, well lighted, nice shower!
Pros:

I didn't eat breakfast due to time factor, but I cruised through. Very nicely set up, well organized, clean and nice choices.

Cons:

I must have been on the pet floor? I heard a dog barking, which I wasn't expecting but it wasn't a problem.

Just terrible
Pros:

They have recently updated the hotel, but the staff and management have not kept up. A housekeeper came into my room at 8:30 am while I was in the shower. Management doesn’t seem to care. I have been frequenting this hotel for years, but service has declined dramatically and I will not be returning.
