| - Our overall experience here was very good. The front desk personnel were helpful in pointing us in the right direction to get started seeing what the city has to offer, and our room was clean and comfortable. The free breakfast buffet is standard Hampton fare: waffle maker, omelet or scrambled eggs, sausage or bacon, bread, muffins, bagels, a selection of cereals and yogurts, juices, coffee, etc. Wi-Fi is free throughout the visit, you just need to log in again once every 24 hours for each device.
The location is good, just a few blocks from Tyron Street and very close to a train station that can take you around downtown. It's also very close to the NASCAR museum and the convention center.
Parking is I think $10 a day for self-parking, which is a lot for a Hampton. It's in a garage, which is nice, but the speed bumps (four per level) are really obnoxiously big, requiring that you basically come to a complete stop before going over them unless you're interested in risking suspension damage and incurring the cost of reseating your kidneys.
Park on levels 4 or 5 for direct access to the hotel via a small corridor connecting the buildings. It's much easier than the other levels, where you have to take an elevator down to ground level, walk through the entrance, then to the elevator up to your room.
