"My stay was okay for the price. I would have rated 5 but the air conditioning wasn’t the best. The entire property runs pretty warm. I had the AC running for hours at the minimum temp and highest fan speed, but it didn’t do much. Hovered around 76 degrees during the day. Luckily I was able to open a window to get fresh air. It’s not a big deal breaker but it is good to know if you’re a hot sleeper."

"Awful experience. I should have stayed with what I know. The night staff was rude and unaccommodating. Place is run down. No amenities."

"Beautiful hotel with art deco beauty and wonderful staff. The rooms are clean and spacious. I love the central location and vibes. "

"Air conditioning in room was horrible, thermostat never went lower than 70 degrees. Bed and pillows not comfortable. Was very disappointed because I’ve been to several Hampton Inns and always had excellent air conditioning and bed / pillows."

"Excellent location. Room and hotel were clean and hotel was excellent overall."

"The hotel was pretty good in general. Here's the good. Our room on the 18th floor was clean and quiet. We didn't here any other guests, although I can't say for sure if there were guests in any adjacent rooms. We had minimal interaction with the staff but what staff we did interact with were helpful and polite. We did not get breakfast so we can offer no feedback on the food. Now the not so good. The beds were rock hard and uncomfortable. I like a softer bed so this is usually the case for me but my wife likes a harder bed and she complained about the beds being too hard. Also, there was basically no room for items in the bathroom. There were 4 people in our room but no place for 4 people to leave their basic toiletries and no suitable place neither in the bathroom nor the room to hang 4 towels. There was some kind of rack inside the shower but I'm not sure if who ever thought it was a good idea to put it there is aware of how showers work. There was plenty of open wall space in the bathroom for towel hooks but only a single hook on the backside of the bathroom door that already had the hair dryer hanging on it. There was no shelf space to put the hair dryer on so it had to keep taking up some space on the only available hook. When there are only 2 people in the room this issue is not such a big deal but with 4 it is a real hassle."

"Elevators are horrible, outdated, old and one of the two guest elevators didn't work for two days of my stay . No ability to buy water or anything else at the hotel, if you want water you need to go to the second floor with your own bottle to refill from a water machine. Having to pay a Destination Fee for lousey internet was a rip off. Yes you get two drink coupons with it but that isn't as important as having good internet which there's isn't. Only because it was located in an area I needed to be wouls I stay there again."
