"The breakfast was one of the worst we've ever had at a Hampton Inn. Processed chicken sausage that was like chewing rubber, the orange juice machine was out of order, and the pastries were hard and cold as though they just came out of the freezer ."

"Clean and beautiful. The bath houses were always very clean. Only down side is there’s a life lift (helicopter) right beside the tents and a train track close which creates a lot of extra noise when trying to sleep."
