| - Looking at hotel reviews on Yelp (or any other review site, for that matter) is always a little iffy, because people tend to fixate on things that are important to them, that may not be important to you. So I tend to take hotel reviews with a grain of salt. However, when deciding on a hotel for a recent visit to Phoenix, I decided to forego some pricier options and trust the reviews for this Hampton Inn. It was a great choice.
The hotel was very clean and comfortable, and everyone we spoke to who worked there was friendly and polite. We got there fairly early in the morning wanting to drop our bags before an appointment, and they got us in very quickly.
The beds were comfortable, as was the bathroom. Having the sink in the room instead of the bathroom was a little weird. I couldn't decide if it helped with more than one person getting ready at the same time, or hindered it.
The free parking was great, and very close. We didn't eat the breakfast, but the coffee setup was very welcome. We especially loved the water cooler that they kept filled by the desk, and took advantage of it often.
We drove all over the area to visit various places and spring training venues, and had an easy time getting everywhere. It's close to several highways, which made it easy to get around.
I'm generally a fan of Hampton Inns, and this one was a great credit to the chain.
