Don’t let the dirty mat at check in stop you
Pros:

This is a very nice Hampton with an interesting arrangement with the Holiday Inn next door and the casino beyond that: there is a hallway that connects all 3 with restaurants you can walk to indoors. We don’t need the casino but enjoyed a good meal without getting back in the car.
When checking in the floor mat in front of the check in desk is disgustingly dirty. First impressions make a big difference. Our impression of the hotel and its management was reduced by this reception alone. It spoiled what is otherwise an impressive hotel lobby.

Pros:

We thought it was fine.

Cons:

For a non-smoking facility - someone in one of the rooms on the 5th floor was smoking pot. You could clearly smell it in the hallway.

Non functional toilet
Pros:

I checked in around 5:30 PM. We went to dinner, got back to the room around 7:30. The toilet is very low to the ground, great if you are 4 ft tall. The biggest issue is the toilet wouldn’t flush. I call down to the desk. The front desk clerk told me that the maintenance man was running shuttle. We waited til 930 PM and no call. I had to go to the lobby to use the restroom. Little kids in the restroom trying to open my stall…running around with no supervision, and the hotel clerk sitting in the back. I go the the front desk to speak explain again that I am the person that called regarding a toilet not working. She explains the person that could attend to that is running shuttle. We paid $380 for a room with a non functional toilet. I was scheduled to stay for 3 nights. I checked out and went home. I won’t ever stay at this Hampton again, and don’t recommend.
