The value on Hampton was unbelievable - I even \"splurged\" on a King Suite - and so was the entire experience!\n\nThe 2 ladies working my check-in shift (3 pm on Saturday) were awesome! Very friendly, helpful, and set a great tone for our entire visit. Check-in and -out were a breeze, and I felt like I was a VIP. :-) My BF went to the concierge at 2 am for a fork (he was able to microwave a Marie Callendar's frozen meal after midnight, and dammit if he was going to let anything get in his way) - he said the guy at the counter was amazingly friendly and nice - way to go, Hampton staff!\n\nRoom was spotless, all appliances are high-quality, bed is SUPER comfy, perfect AC (over 105 degrees this weekend!), refreshing pool area with towels, and OMG the complimentary breakfast was so good! Eggs, potatoes, ham, a waffle press, yogurt, cereal, pastries, juices, coffees...something for everyone and everything was great. They also have free coffee/tea in the lobby 24/7. \n\nThis hotel is going above and beyond in providing high-quality service for an affordable price in a safe neighborhood. Only a 10-minute drive from the strip meant we didn't have to ditch our friends, and having a mini-kitchen in the room meant we saved some $$ from pricey Strip drinks. ;-) \n\nOn my \"best\" list for future visits - glad we found this place when we did!"^^ . .
