| - we just returned from a 7 day stay at this location. i had reserved a king accessible room because the extended stay rate was $69.00 per night. when we checked in i asked how much extra the cost would be if we upgraded to a studio suite with a coach, mini refrigerator, microwave and small area with a sink. the cost was $10 more each night!!! what a steal!.......
this location offers the great amenities that hampton inns are famous for.....hot breakfast..including waffle batter to make belgian waffles, fresh fruit, cereal, 2 hot items each day, instant oatmeal,danish, eng muffins,toast, bagels etc. one morning we arrived at the end of the 6:00 am-10:00 am daily serving time and the fresh fruit was gone. i asked the breakfast attendant about getting more??? she went in the back and came out with my own bowl of fruit! so much that i couldn't finish it all.....so i asked for some plastic wrap and brought it back to my room for later. there is a small store which carries snacks, sundries and beverages. no charge to park your car....no daily resort fee, free wifi throughout the hotel. comfy hampton beds.....with a nice card stating that comforters, covers and blankets are washed before each new guest stays in their room!!! that is a huge plus! the 42" tv was fantastic!! reason enough to want to stay here:):):) the lobby is bright and has coffee, tea, apples and a few bananas available 24/7. if you miss breakfast or just want a snack on the go....there are bags at the front desk that have an apple, kelloggs special k bar, otis spunkmeyer muffin and a small box of mints!!!! there is a 24 hour business center on site with 2 computers, 1 printer, and office supplies like paper clips, pens, hole punch.....you will need your room key to access the computer area as well as the hotel lobby after midnight i believe??
there is alot of different restaurants, fast food, banks, stores if you continue north on market st to the san tan village area........or if you turn left at market st and val vista dr and proceed south to east germann rd, turn right and travel approx 3-4 miles there is a huge shopping and dining complex called crossroads towne center. this area also has a movie theater.
along with every good review..there is always something to be improved on......some hilton family hotels do not offer safes in their rooms and this location does not have an in room safe. i wanted to bring my ipad with. i feel better locking the ipad in a safe when i am out of my room. i did find out that my trip insurance i purchased covered my ipad if it was lost or stolen so i brought it with. an in room safe would be a good addition to rooms on a pay per use basis. also, the juices at breakfast as not 100% juice...rather high fructose corn syrup based. i have food sensitivities to hfcs so serving 100% juice would be a better choice and more healthy too.
this hampton location is in a new area not recognized on a gps. we had alot of trouble trying to remember we couldn't use the hotel address. when i went to the computer room to use mapquest...2 times the printer was on "sleep" and wouldn't reboot:(:(:(. the swimming area is very small.....
overall a great stay for a great price staffed with great employees!!! a very clean hotel top to bottom!!!
